mops update

Update all dependencies to the highest semver-compatible version (caret-bound by default — does not cross major versions, or pre-1.0 minor versions).

mops update

Update only a specific dependency

mops update [pkg]

Example​

Update the core package to the highest compatible version:

mops update core

Options​

--major​

Allow updates that cross the caret bound — major versions, or for 0.x.y packages, minor versions. For example, with core = "2.0.0" in mops.toml:

  • mops update core → bumps within 2.x.y (e.g. 2.5.0)
  • mops update core --major → also allows 3.0.0 or later, once published

Mutually exclusive with --patch.

--patch​

Restrict updates to patch versions only — never bumps minor or major. Useful for risk-averse upgrades. For example, with core = "1.2.3":

  • mops update core → may bump to 1.5.0 (within 1.x.y)
  • mops update core --patch → only bumps to 1.2.4, 1.2.5, … (never 1.3.0)

For 0.x.y packages this matches the default — caret already restricts pre-1.0 packages to patch updates.

Mutually exclusive with --major.

--lock​

What to do with the lockfile.

Default value is update if lockfile exists and ignore otherwise.

Possible values:

  • update - update lockfile (create if not exists). Always checks after update
  • ignore - ignore lockfile
