workspace-updater

workspace-updater is a command-line utility for auditing and updating the catalog in your pnpm-workspace.yaml file. It helps you keep your shared workspace dependencies up-to-date by checking them against the npm registry, grouping them by release type (major, minor, patch), and optionally updating them for you.

Why workspace-updater?

Managing shared dependencies in a pnpm workspace catalog can be tedious. workspace-updater automates this process, providing a clear, color-coded overview of what's outdated and giving you fine-grained control over what gets updated.

Features

• Parallel Dependency Checking: Fetches dependency information in parallel for a fast experience.
• Color-Coded Output: Outdated dependencies are grouped by major, minor, and patch updates, with distinct colors for each.
• Automatic Updates: An --update flag lets you automatically update the pnpm-workspace.yaml file.
• Selective Updating: Combine --update with --major, --minor, or --patch to only update specific release types.
• Built for Bun: Written in TypeScript and designed to run with the Bun runtime.

Installation

To use workspace-updater in your own pnpm workspace, you can install it as a development dependency:

pnpm add -D workspace-updater

Usage

You can run workspace-updater directly from your terminal using pnpx.
