PackCheck

Check for newer versions of installed NuGet Packages in your Terminal.

---

PackCheck is a dotnet tool for checking versions of installed NuGet packages in your .NET projects in your terminal. The check command (default) shows you all NuGet packages in a nice table with the current, latest stable and latest versions of each package. You can upgrade the .csproj (or Directory.Packages.props if you use Central Package Management) file with the upgrade command to your desired target versions. Whether to the latest stable or latest version, only a specific package or all at once.

Installation

You can install PackCheck as a dotnet tool via NuGet:

# Install dotnet tool install --global PackCheck # Update dotnet tool update --global PackCheck

Usage

In your terminal cd into a .NET project or .NET solution and run:

packcheck # or packcheck c # or packcheck check

To check versions of a file-based app you need to provide the path to the file:

packcheck --fbaFile app.cs

This should give you something like this:

After that you can upgrade the package versions in the .csproj file (or .csproj files in a solution, the Directory.Packages.props file or the given file-based app file) to their corresponding stable versions by running:
