Router Update (update/)

The router update process: checking for, downloading, verifying, and applying I2P router updates, plus the update news and notification handling.

How It Works

Update checking and applying runs through the console. Updates are downloaded, signature-verified, and applied to the router installation; plugin updates are handled separately. The update process integrates with the news feed to notify users of available updates.
