update

Update installed packages from package registries.

Usage

foton update [OPTIONS] [<PACKAGE>...]

Arguments

<PACKAGE>

Package names, optionally with an exact version as <package-name>@<version>.

If not specified, all installed packages will be updated if possible. When an exact version is specified, update selects the matching installed package first, then looks for a newer version of the same package name.

Options

--registry <REGISTRY_ID>

Package registry IDs to resolve packages from.

Use a comma-separated list such as --registry local,foton.

--no-confirm

Skip interactive confirmation prompts.

--warnings-as-errors

Treat warnings as errors, causing the command to fail if any warning is emitted.

--pre-release

Allow updating to pre-release versions when resolving packages from registries.

Without this option, versions with a suffix such as 1.2.3-rc-1 are ignored.

Examples

foton update

foton update <package-name>

foton update --registry <registry-id-1>,<registry-id-2> <package-name>

Notes

  • If no newer version is available for the selected packages, foton reports that they are already up to date.
  • If an update does not complete cleanly, use repair to clean up any packages it leaves behind.
  • Update resolution uses package names and package registry IDs, not manifest files.
  • If multiple selected package registries provide newer versions of the same package, update does not choose one automatically; it fails and asks you to disambiguate.
