Checking for outdated dependencies

The outdated subcommand checks for new versions of the JSR dependencies listed in ende.json files, and displays dependencies that could be updated. Workspaces are fully supported.

For example, take a project with an ende.json file:

{
  "imports": {
    "@ende/fmt": "jsr:@ende/fmt@^2026.10.14",
    "@ende/path": "jsr:@ende/[email protected]"
  }
}

ende outdated
┌────────────────┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────┐
│ Package        │ Current    │ Update     │ Latest     │
├────────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┤
│ jsr:@ende/path │ 2026.10.14 │ 2026.10.14 │ 2026.10.15 │
└────────────────┴────────────┴────────────┴────────────┘

The Update column lists the newest version the import's range allows, while the Latest column lists the latest version. @ende/path is pinned to an exact version, so it can't be updated without changing its range.

If you would prefer to only show packages that have new compatible versions you can pass the --compatible flag.

Updating dependencies

The outdated subcommand can also update dependencies with the --update flag. By default, it will only update dependencies within their ranges:

ende outdated --update
Updated 1 dependency:
 - jsr:@ende/fmt ^2026.10.14 -> ^2026.10.15

To update to the latest versions regardless of the ranges, pass the --latest flag:

ende outdated --update --latest
Updated 2 dependencies:
 - jsr:@ende/fmt  ^2026.10.14 -> ^2026.10.15
 - jsr:@ende/path  2026.10.14 ->  2026.10.15

ende update does the same as ende outdated --update.

Selecting packages

The outdated subcommand also supports selecting which packages to operate on. This works with or without the --update flag.

ende outdated --update --latest @ende/path

Multiple selectors can be passed, and wildcards (*) or exclusions (!) are also supported. For instance, to update all packages in the @ende scope, except for @ende/fmt:

ende outdated --update --latest "@ende/*" "!@ende/fmt"

Note that if you use wildcards, you will probably need to surround the argument in quotes to prevent the shell from trying to expand them.

Updating to specific versions

You can also select a specific version to update to by appending it after @.

ende outdated --update @ende/[email protected]

Workspaces

In a workspace setting, by default outdated will only operate on the current workspace member.

For instance, given a workspace:

{
  "workspace": ["./member-a", "./member-b"]
}

Running

ende outdated

from the ./member-a directory will only check for outdated dependencies listed in ./member-a/ende.json.

To include all workspace members, pass the --recursive flag (the -r shorthand is also accepted).

ende outdated --recursive
ende outdated --update --latest -r
