simple-update-notifier

Simple update notifier to check for npm updates for cli applications.

Checks for updates for an npm module and outputs to the command line if there is one available. The result is cached for the specified time so it doesn't check every time the app runs.

Install

npm install simple-update-notifier
OR
yarn add simple-update-notifier

Usage

import updateNotifier from 'simple-update-notifier';
import packageJson from './package.json' assert { type: 'json' };
