enable pip to upgrade all outdated packages

• Pip version: all
• Python version: all
• Operating System: all

Description:

I would like pip to upgrade all outdated packages identified by pip list --outdated in one simple command. It would also be nice to have pip outdated show the outdated package too.

What I’ve run:

this works for me (so far), but from a usability stand point, people shouldn’t have to do this just to keep their packages up to date:

pip list --outdated | cut -d' ' -f1 | xargs pip install --upgrade

For anyone who’s tired googling that command line, I’ve added a command line tool to pipdate. Simply

sudo -H pip install pipdate

and then

sudo -H pipdate

anytime you like.

pip freeze > requirements.txt && pip install --upgrade -r requirements.txt && rm requirements.txt super easy !
