Package Exports

npm-up

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (npm-up) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

npm-up

A lightweight tool to check the latest version of dependent npm packages for a project and do whatever you want.

Installation

npm i npm-up -g

Usage

run npm-up [options] in a project directory with a package.json file.

For example: npm-up -ab

If no options are set, it will only check the latest version and do nothing but display.

####Options:

-h, --help               output usage information
-v, --ver                Display the current version of npm-up
-g, --global             Check global packages
-w, --writeback          Write updated version info back to package.json
-i, --install            Install the newest version of the packages that need to be updated.
-l, --lock               Lock the version of the package in package.json, with no version prefix.
-a, --all                alias for -wil.
-b, --backup [fileName]  BackUp package.json before write back, default is package.bak.json.
-d, --dep                Check dependencies only.
-D, --dev                Check devDependencies only.
-s, --silent             Do not log any infomation.
-e, --exclude <list>     Excluded packages list, split by comma
-o, --only <list>        Only check the packages list, split by comma

Version Pattern

Only support number version with prefix and suffix, or *. Eg:

*
^1.5.4
~2.3
0.9.7
>=0.9.8
0.5.0-alpha1

However, the semantic meaning of the prefix and suffix is ignored, because I just want the latest version.
If the version declared in the package.json is not recognizable, the corresponding package will be excluded.

Rules

Take 3 versions into consideration:
- Version declare in package.json
- Version of the package installed
- The latest version of the package
If a package is not installed, only package.json will be updated, and the package itself won't be installed.
If the version is * in package.json, it will never be overwritten, even the flag lock is set.
The preifx of the version will be preserved when write back, unless flag lock is set.
If the version installed is not the same as the version declared in package.json, there comes a warning.
Installed version is preferred.
