Simple script to monitor manually installed software for new upstream releases.
A simple script to monitor manually installed software for new upstream releases. Can be used as monitoring plugin with Nagios.

It takes a local changelog file and a remote upstream release page as input, guesses the highest version from both and compares them.

Usage examples:

$ check_release.pl --name=roundcube --changelog=/var/www/roundcube/CHANGELOG --url='https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases' --regex='roundcubemail/releases/tag/([^v]__VER__)'

$ check_release.pl --name=linux --changelog=/usr/src/linux/ChangeLog --url='https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/' --regex='linux-(__VER__).tar'

$ check_release.pl --name=app --changelog=/usr/local/app/CHANGELOG --url='http://sourceforge.net/projects/app/files/app/' --regex='app/files/app/([^v]__VER__)/'
