m-ringler.CpmUpdateTool 0.1.0

CpmUpdate

CpmUpdate is a small command‑line utility that inspects a .NET folder's Directory.Packages.props file and updates NuGet package versions to the latest available release using dotnet CLI commands.

Features

• Lists outdated top‑level NuGet package references in projects under the current directory.
• Optionally includes prerelease versions when checking for updates.
• Prompts interactively for each upgrade, or can run non‑interactively with --yes.
• Abstracts filesystem and console operations to ease testing.
• Extensible through ICmdRunner for custom command execution.

Building

cd /path/to/CpmUpdate
# restore and build everything
dotnet build

Formatting

We use CSharpier to keep code style consistent:

Installation

dotnet tool install m-ringler.CpmUpdateTool

Usage

Run the tool from a directory containing Directory.Packages.props (typically the repo root):

dotnet update-cpm [options]

Options

• -y, --yes — update all packages without asking.
• --include-prerelease — consider prerelease package versions when checking for updates.
• --help — display help text.

Example

# interactive check with prompts
cd /my/solution
dotnet update-cpm --include-prerelease

# non-interactive run, accept everything
dotnet update-cpm -y
