Ghost Commander - Could Not Find Suitable Release/Unable to recognize most current version is installed.

[ghub5n5sp]

Greetings.

Pixel 9a, GrapheneOS, Obtainium 1.6.11

I've added Ghost Commander via this Ghost Commander Link supplied by ImranR98 found Here However it states the following:
Could not find a suitable release (https://sourceforge.net/projects/ghostcommander/files/Releases/) when attempting to check for updates to the app.
That comment by ImranR98 is from 2024 so I've attempted to add Ghost Commander simply by pointing the source URL to the sourceforge releases path from the error above and changing no other settings. Obtainium takes it and appears to succeed in checking for updates as it reports no errors. However It then tells me an update is available even though the app is up to date. Telling Obtainium to mark the app as up to date does nothing. Clicking on the app in Obtainium to view more information shows the following information

A pseudo-version is in use
1.64.1 Installed
Ghost%20Commander%201.64.1.apk Latest
Ghost%20Commander%201.64.1.apk

What settings should I be using to resolve this?
Apologies if I've failed Github Etiquette. I'm not a regular github user or programmer.

This is a good enough place to ask for help, so no faults regarding GitHub etiquette - as far as I know.

I don't know enough otherwise to help without speculating. Maybe the version extraction regex needs to be tinkered with?? Good luck.

I've tried adding it too. I even opened a request, but so far without success. Of course, SourceForge and the project's structure can sometimes cause problems... Let's give it a try together.

I'm not sure if the source needs fixed or what the underlying issue is but ImranR98's import link doesn't work as stated. It's not configured for the %20 before the version number.

master-bob is correct, the version trim needs an edit to make this work. Change it to this...

Trim version string with ReGex: Commander.\d{2}(.+)\.apk

Edit:
The 2 version trim revisions I posted within the below reply are better.

After VadosG's below comments I decided to look into this more. I did find the underlying issue with ImranR98's import link and it's reproducible.

Issue:
The %20 before the version number doesn't carry over when sharing by HTML link but it does when sharing by JSON export.

Solution:
In order to share by HTML link users would need to use a different character instead of the % or a different ReGex. (E.g. .20, .\d{2}, etc.)

[VadosG]

Your solution is almost perfect (or maybe even perfect). Right now, all you need to do is include your code for truncating the version string and specify the $1 match group. The only thing is, I took a look at how your code handles the list of APKs for the release and beta branches, and it seems to me there might be some false positives:

Releases:

Betas:

I didn't look into this with my initial post above, all I was attempting to do was to revise the version trim to make it work. The $1 match group was already there within ImranR98's import link.

You're also 100% correct. The .+ is greedy meaning it'll pickup any apk that has Commander ending in apk. This could definitely produce false positives as your screenshots show. So I'll provide a few different revisions to avoid this conflict.

Commander.20(\d.*)\.apk
Commander.\d{2}(\d.*)\.apk

The + would still work but the * would be better.

[VadosG]

Commander.20(\d.*)\.apk
Commander.\d{2}(\d.*)\.apk

So, let's choose one of these options — which are truly the right ones in every sense — and finally get closer to adding Ghost Commander to apps.obtainium.imranr.dev...

[ghub5n5sp]

I'm not knowledgeable enough to thoroughly test your suggestions but your second option appears to work for me.

Thanks!

[VadosG]

The AI suggested the following options to me, noting that the second one was more accurate:

^Ghost%20Commander%20([^%]+)\.apk$

and

^Ghost%20Commander%20([A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._-]*)\.apk$

[DarkCrypt]

Depending on what AI model you ask you'll get different answers. Seems like both of these answers will work as stated. The 2 different revisions I posted above are easier to understand, just my opinion.

Your import link doesn't work because of the above stated issue.
