Hey guys I try to make a way to detect whether my project is up to date and if not to update it from the github repo automagically. This part works fine , but I will also like to first detect whether the computer has an internet connection so to avoid unnecessary errors and checks .
Is that possible ?
Just try accessing a well know, always available host with a short timeout ?
[ ZnClient new beOneShot; timeout: 2; get: 'http://www.google.com'; isSuccess ] on: Error do: [ false ]
You should try to contact github, not google, since that's what you care about. After all github can be down sometimes so it would fail even with internet connection. Peter
