Update Deno Dependencies
Run this script to update your dependency urls to their latest published versions. Optionally run --test(s) to ensure that each dependency update is non-breaking.
Note: udd is fundamentally different from something like npm or yarn. Other tools do a "distributed update" i.e. every user updates independently (and potentially to untested versions/configurations of dependencies). With udd precisely one person updates (a maintainer), and they can ensure that the new dependencies pass the test suite before commiting/releasing a new version. With udd every user has a fixed version of the dependencies.
Semantic versioning fragments are purely a convenience for the maintainer, and do not affect users.
Installation
Use deno
install
to
install or update udd:
deno install -rf --allow-read=. --allow-write=. --allow-net https://deno.land/x/udd/main.ts
You may need to include the deno bin directory in your PATH.
Usage
For example, to update url imports inside deps.ts
run:
udd deps.ts
To update all the ts files in your directory:
udd *.ts
To ensure that deno test
is successful when updating each dependency:
udd deps.ts --test="deno test"
Scheduled github action
You might like to use a github action to execute udd each day, check whether there are dependency updates, and - if there are - create a pull request to your repository.
As an example see the
.github/workflows/udd.yml
file in the udd repository.
Thanks to Eliaz Bobadilla for the initial action implementation.
Semantic versioning
If you append a fragment #${token}${version}
to your urls you can manage their
update behavior:
Token | Name | udd updates to the latest version such that |
---|---|---|
^ | Compatible | major version is the same (if major=0 then same minor version) |
~ | Approximately | major and minor version are the same (or both major=0) |
< | Less than | less than the provided version |
= | Equal | it's exactly this version |
The version argument is optional for ^
, ~
and =
(the version passed is the
version in the url).
Examples
-export { Application } from "https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts#^";
+export { Application } from "https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts#^"; // 3.x.y is not chosen
-export { decode } from "https://deno.land/[email protected]/strings/decode.ts#=";
+export { decode } from "https://deno.land/[email protected]/strings/decode.ts#="; // no change
-export { Application } from "https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts#<0.2.0";
+export { Application } from "https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/mod.ts#<0.2.0"; // 0.2.x is not chosen
-export { encode } from "https://deno.land/[email protected]/strings/encode.ts#~";
+export { encode } from "https://deno.land/[email protected]/strings/encode.ts#~"; // update to latest compatible
