depset

A command-line tool to synchronize package dependencies in your package.json to their latest versions, a specific target version, or versions matching a pattern.

• pnpm:

  pnpm dlx depset@latest [args...]
  

• yarn:

  yarn dlx depset@latest [args...]

Usage

depset [package-specifier] [target-version] [options]

Arguments

• [package-specifier] (Optional)
  The package name or pattern to target. If omitted (and --yes is not used), you will be prompted.

  • Exact Name: e.g., lodash, @babel/core
  • Scope: e.g., @myorg (targets packages like @myorg/component-a, @myorg/utils)

• [target-version] (Optional)
  The maximum version to synchronize to (e.g., "1", "1.2", "1.2.3"). If omitted (and neither --latest nor --yes are used), you will be prompted. If --latest is used, this is ignored.
