Update all? about asdf HOT 8 CLOSED

Here is a workaround in shell:

for tool in $(asdf plugin list); do
  asdf install "${tool}" latest  \
    &&  asdf global "${tool}" latest  \
    &&  echo "${tool} set globally"
done

You can add a shell alias for this or put it a script on your path

HI @HashNuke, I'm sorry if this has already been implemented, but I guess that the feature that @jrasanen was talking about, and the one that I'm looking for is not about updating plugins, it's about updating every software to it's latest and greatest version.

E.g.:

❯ asdf list
bat
  0.21.0
fzf
  0.29.0
golang
  1.18.2
gradle
  7.4.2
hugo
  0.99.0

New proposed magical command:

❯ asdf update --all
Updating fzf to latest version: 0.30.0...
Updating gradle to latest version: 7.5-milestone-1...
Updating hugo to latest version: 0.99.1...
   
All packages updated
...

❯ asdf list
bat
  0.21.0
fzf
  0.30.0
golang
  1.18.2
gradle
  7.5-milestone-1
hugo
  0.99.1

I could certainly use an update --all command, or at least a combination of install latest --all + asdf global latest --all.

I mean, I wrote my own combination of scripts to do this, but it would be nice if this functionality could be part of the main CLI, so that people that are only interested in the latest and greatest version of the software can use it as a more traditional package manager.

Hello @jrasanen,
Yes. Suggestions are always welcome :)
Can you share an example use-case for the hooks?

from asdf.

@HashNuke Hi, sorry for the late response. Use case being ability to bump multiple packages to the latest stable.

So maybe this could be two new hooks, 1) a hook for a package retrieving if newer version is available and 2) update.

Looking for this as well, but not sure if it is possible since how do you define latest and greatest? For example if you list java versions you get zulu-jre-javafx-18.30.11 as the latest version but this is actually the latest of zulu-jre-javafx version of java. If I'm currently using adoptopenjdk-jre then it would replace it with a version I don't actually want.
I would llike to get adoptopenjdk-jre-18.0.1+10 which is quite high up in the list because it starts with a 🤔

@v3rm0n , for an update all it's certainly trickier, but for java itself, I think that you can use a prefix (e.g., adoptopenjdk-jre + latest).

This would be a way to do it for Java, Python, etc. Find the current prefix + install the latest version with this prefix.

was also looking for something like asdf global all latest or something, for now I just stuffed the loop from @stealthybox in my upgradeall function 🤓
