Dear friends,

as you might know, I'm not very active in the .NET world anymore and don't have resources to develop new features as well. At the same time I also know that there is a certain user base that depends on new versions of Mongo2Go and the included MongoDB binaries.

I continuously get pull requests with executable code (eg #77 which is still open). This is great and I could merge it, BUT then there would be the danger that malicious code would be added to the Nuget package. I won't take this risk and therefore I download all executable files myself again to see if the files are absolutely binary equal to the PR. This is frustrating.

So I would like to ask YOU to develop a solution.
This solution might execute the following steps:

  1. clear the folder in https://github.com/Mongo2Go/Mongo2Go/tree/master/tools
  2. download and unzip the packages from http://downloads.mongodb.org/
  3. moves only the necessary files to the correct folder
  4. optional: updates README 👍
  5. optional: anything which looks a little bit like automatisation 👍👍

Batch file, PowerShell, C# program I don't care, as long as it does its job. Personally, I'm a big fan of PowerShell Core, but hey, I'm not the one who can make demands here.

Cheers,
Johannes
