NAME¶
bundle-outdated - List installed gems with newer versions available
SYNOPSIS¶
bundle outdated [GEM] [--local] [--pre] [--source] [--filter-strict | --strict] [--update-strict] [--parseable | --porcelain] [--group=GROUP] [--groups] [--patch|--minor|--major] [--filter-major] [--filter-minor] [--filter-patch] [--only-explicit] [--cooldown=NUMBER]
DESCRIPTION¶
Outdated lists the names and versions of gems that have a newer version available in the given source. Calling outdated with [GEM [GEM]] will only check for newer versions of the given gems. Prerelease gems are ignored by default. If your gems are up to date, Bundler will exit with a status of 0. Otherwise, it will exit 1.
OPTIONS¶
- --local
- Do not attempt to fetch gems remotely and use the gem cache instead.
- --pre
- Check for newer pre-release gems.
- --source=<list>
- Check against a specific source.
- --filter-strict, --strict
- Only list newer versions allowed by your Gemfile requirements, also respecting conservative update flags (--patch, --minor, --major).
- --update-strict
- Strict conservative resolution, do not allow any gem to be updated past latest --patch | --minor | --major.
- --parseable, --porcelain
- Use minimal formatting for more parseable output.
- --group=GROUP
- List gems from a specific group.
- --groups
- List gems organized by groups.
- --minor
- Prefer updating only to next minor version.
- --major
- Prefer updating to latest major version (default).
- --patch
- Prefer updating only to next patch version.
- --filter-major
- Only list major newer versions.
- --filter-minor
- Only list minor newer versions.
- --filter-patch
- Only list patch newer versions.
- --only-explicit
- Only list gems specified in your Gemfile, not their dependencies.
- --cooldown=<number>
- Annotate (rather than hide) versions that are still inside the cooldown window of number days. The prose output appends "in cooldown for Nd more days" and the table form adds "(cooldown Nd)" to the Latest column. When a version outside the window is newer than the installed one, the prose output also appends "newest out of cooldown X" and the table form becomes "(cooldown Nd, X out of cooldown)". With --filter-strict (or --patch, --minor, --major, which imply it), "newest" is already the cooldown-filtered resolved version, so none of these annotations appear. See cooldown in bundle-config(1).
PATCH LEVEL OPTIONS¶
See bundle update(1) bundle-update.1.html for details.
FILTERING OUTPUT¶
The 3 filtering options do not affect the resolution of versions, merely what versions are shown in the output.
If the regular output shows the following:
-
* Gem Current Latest Requested Groups Release Date * faker 1.6.5 1.6.6 ~> 1.4 development, test 2024-02-05 * hashie 1.2.0 3.4.6 = 1.2.0 default 2023-11-10 * headless 2.2.3 2.3.1 = 2.2.3 test 2022-08-19
--filter-major would only show:
-
* Gem Current Latest Requested Groups Release Date * hashie 1.2.0 3.4.6 = 1.2.0 default 2023-11-10
--filter-minor would only show:
-
* Gem Current Latest Requested Groups Release Date * headless 2.2.3 2.3.1 = 2.2.3 test 2022-08-19
--filter-patch would only show:
-
* Gem Current Latest Requested Groups Release Date * faker 1.6.5 1.6.6 ~> 1.4 development, test 2024-02-05
Filter options can be combined. --filter-minor and --filter-patch would show:
-
* Gem Current Latest Requested Groups Release Date * faker 1.6.5 1.6.6 ~> 1.4 development, test 2024-02-05
Combining all three filter options would be the same result as providing none of them.
