--- Packmate is a modern CLI tool for managing, updating, and cleaning up your Node.js project dependencies. It supports **npm**, **pnpm**, and **yarn**. With an intuitive interactive UI, Packmate helps you keep your project healthy and up-to-dateβ€”faster and safer than ever. ## πŸ€– Why Packmate? - Cleaner and more focused than most legacy dependency updaters. - Safer: latest packages cannot be selected by mistake. - Faster: only recommended version upgrades are suggested by default. - Supports monorepos and modern workspaces (pnpm, yarn, npm). ## πŸš€ Features - **Detects outdated dependencies** and suggests updates with recommended (major/minor) versions. - **Finds and removes unused packages** from your project. - **Detects declared but not installed packages** and helps install them easily. - **Protects up-to-date packages:** disables selection for already latest packages. - **Smart version suggestions**: Only shows the latest version for each major release. - **Modern CLI interface:** powered by [@clack/prompts](https://github.com/natemoo-re/clack). - **Works with npm, pnpm, and yarn** – auto-detects your package manager. ## πŸ’Ύ Installation ```sh npm install -g packmate # or pnpm add -g packmate # or yarn global add packmate ``` You can also run it instantly with: ```sh npx packmate ``` ## πŸ“ Usage From your project root, just run: ```sh packmate ``` **Typical Workflow Example:** ```sh β”Œ πŸ“¦ Packmate: Dependency Updates & Cleanup β”‚ β—† Select the packages you want to update/remove/install: β”‚ β—» globby 13.2.2 β†’ 14.1.0 [Update Available] β”‚ β—» precinct [Not Installed] β”‚ β—» chalk 4.1.2 [Unused] β”‚ β—» npm-check-updates 16.14.20 β†’ 18.0.1 [Update Available] β”‚ β—Ό @clack/prompts 0.11.0 [Latest] β”‚ β—Ό fs-extra 11.1.1 [Latest] β”” globby - choose a version to update (current: 13.2.2): ● 14.1.0 (major) [recommended] β—‹ 13.4.2 (minor) [recommended] β—‹ 13.2.3 (patch) ... precinct is not installed.
