How do I upgrade all upgradable packages using ppm?


When I open up ppm, the UI shows me several upgradable packages. Unfortunately, I cannot select them all by typing Ctrla or clicking the first element, holding Shift and then select the last element in the list.

Do I really have to walk through all elements and press the + key in order to select them? Refusing to believe that.


Solution

  • You can do it from the command line.

    C:\>ppm upgrade --install
    

    This will upgrade all packages without asking. There's something about it in the Activestate online doc.
