There’s a Python program that I update regularly. Every time I update the program, I need to modify a specific Python file to change its functionality. Instead of manually patching the file each time, I’d like to automate the process.
I’m looking for a way to automatically apply a patch to a Python file whenever the program updates or if the file doesn’t have the desired modifications.
Any advice or suggestions on how to automate this process would be greatly appreciated!
I don’t really understand what you mean, but this gave me an idea. I can save the version of the software to a file after applying the patch, and then set up a cron job to check if the new software has a different version. If it does, the cron job will apply the patch and update the file with the new version.
