Webcomponents-update-reminder

Remind your user to update your components just by adding one line

Get start

To use this element in your components:

<!-- import this element just like you do to other web components -->
<!-- you can add async tag to this as it won't effect the render of the page -->
<link rel="import" href="../webcomponents-update-reminder/webcomponents-update-reminder.html" async>

<!-- adding this inside your web component -->
<webcomponents-update-reminder
    repo="YOUR ELEMENT'S GITHUB REPO, FOR EXAMPLE: PolymerElements/paper-toolbar">
</webcomponents-update-reminder>

That's all! When your component have a new version, the user will recieve a info like this:

The element will read your repo's release tag and compare it with the local bower.json to detect if there is a new version, only minor and major version update will remind user to update (unless your element's major version is 0). Your user will recieve a message in console when developing on localhost or 127.0.0.1.

You need to mention that the version tag in your bower.json should be look like X.Y.Z, the release tag in your github repo should be look like vX.Y.X or X.Y.Z. We recommend naming tags that fit within semantic versioning.
