NSIS: Distinguish between first start and update

[maczikasz]

• Version: 8.6.0

• Target: Win x64

Is it possible to have Squirrel like events when using NSIS target from the auto updater?

I would like to show a different messages when the app was auto updated and when it was installed the first time.

Thanks

Yes, it is possible to implement.

I will create a PR for this then, I'll post my solution idea here first so you can agree or disagree if it fits your code/thinking

@maczikasz Solution is easy —

1. pass special param to installer (https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/blob/master/nsis-auto-updater/src/NsisUpdater.ts#L148)
2. Handle param when https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/blob/master/templates/nsis/oneClick.nsh#L4

That's much easier than what I had in mind, thanks,
