I got problem with my company internal extension. They don't want to publish it, as it does gather data on external server. So I need to host it myself... but would like not to lose ability of autoupdate.

As far as I read I need to use update_url in manifest, but nothing more is said in Opera documentation...

"update_url": "http://path/to/updateInfo.xml", - as it is said in documentation page

Ok... and what should I put in that xml? Will it autoupdate or just notify users about new updates? Where do I put rest of updated files?

I tried to concat Opera itself about this question, but they don't give any contact information except something like if you have problem, ask on stackoverflow... so here I am.

If it does not work, I was thinking about really BAD method, using unsafe-eval and keeping newest version in local storage... but would rather like to avoid that.

In general the behavior is the same as for Chrome. You can base on this document: https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/autoupdate
