Use npm-check-updates to update all package.json to latest versions and npm update

I’ll introduce the procedure for updating all npm module versions listed in package.json to the latest and running npm update in Node.js.

Install npm-check-updates

The npm-check-updates module can update packages listed in package.json to their latest versions, so first install this.

• tjunnone/npm-check-updates: Find newer versions of package dependencies than what your package.json or bower.json allows

npm install -g npm-check-updates

Update package.json using npm-check-updates

To update package.json using the installed npm-check-updates, run it with the —upgrade or -u option.

npm-check-updates --upgrade

# ncu is an alias command for npm-check-updates
ncu -u 

Additionally, to include minor version updates as targets, run with the —upgradeAll or -a option to include middle version and minor version changes as npm update targets.

npm-check-updates --upgradeAll

# alias ver
ncu -a

That’s the method for updating node modules listed in package.json to their latest versions using npm-check-updates.
