NAME

6       Carton::Doc::Update - Update the dependencies
7

SYNOPSIS

9         carton update [module]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Update the dependencies version for your application.
13
14       Carton is designed to update your dependency in a conservative way,
15       meaning that it doesn't update modules that aren't explicitly required
16       to.
17
18       "carton update" is a command to explicitly update one or all of modules
19       in your cpanfile to the latest available that satisfies the
20       requirements in cpanfile.
21

EXAMPLE

23       Suppose you have a cpanfile with:
24
25           requires 'DBI', '1.600';
26           requires 'Plack', '== 1.0011';
27
28       and then run "carton install" to get DBI 1.610 (the latest at that
29       time) and Plack 1.0011 (as specified in the requirement).
30
31       A few weeks later, DBI and Plack have been updated a couple of times.
32       Running "carton install" won't update the versions, because the
33       installed versions satisfy the requirements in "cpanfile".
34
35       Running "carton update" will update DBI to the latest version, say
36       1.611, because the version still satisfies the requirement. However, it
37       won't update Plack's version, since whatever latest version on CPAN
38       will not satisfy the Plack's requirement "== 1.0011" because it wants
39       an exact version.
