Use bun outdated to check for outdated dependencies in your project. This command displays a table of dependencies that have newer versions available.
bun outdated
| Package | Current | Update | Latest |
| ------------------------------ | ------- | --------- | ---------- |
| @sinclair/typebox | 0.34.15 | 0.34.16 | 0.34.16 |
| @types/bun (dev) | 1.3.0 | 1.3.3 | 1.3.3 |
| eslint (dev) | 8.57.1 | 8.57.1 | 9.20.0 |
| eslint-plugin-security (dev) | 2.1.1 | 2.1.1 | 3.0.1 |
| eslint-plugin-sonarjs (dev) | 0.23.0 | 0.23.0 | 3.0.1 |
| expect-type (dev) | 0.16.0 | 0.16.0 | 1.1.0 |
| prettier (dev) | 3.4.2 | 3.5.0 | 3.5.0 |
| tsup (dev) | 8.3.5 | 8.3.6 | 8.3.6 |
| typescript (dev) | 5.7.2 | 5.7.3 | 5.7.3 |
Version Information
The output table shows three version columns:
- Current: The version currently installed
- Update: The latest version that satisfies your package.json version range
- Latest: The latest version published to the registry
Dependency Filters
bun outdated supports searching for outdated dependencies by package names and glob patterns.
To check if specific dependencies are outdated, pass the package names as positional arguments:
bun outdated eslint-plugin-security eslint-plugin-sonarjs
| Package | Current | Update | Latest |
| ------------------------------ | ------- | ------ | --------- |
| eslint-plugin-security (dev) | 2.1.1 | 2.1.1 | 3.0.1 |
| eslint-plugin-sonarjs (dev) | 0.23.0 | 0.23.0 | 3.0.1 |
You can also pass glob patterns to check for outdated packages:
bun outdated 'eslint*'
| Package | Current | Update | Latest |
| ------------------------------ | ------- | ------ | ---------- |
| eslint (dev) | 8.57.1 | 8.57.1 | 9.20.0 |
| eslint-plugin-security (dev) | 2.1.1 | 2.1.1 | 3.0.1 |
| eslint-plugin-sonarjs (dev) | 0.23.0 | 0.23.0 | 3.0.1 |
For example, to check for outdated @types/* packages:
bun outdated '@types/*'
| Package | Current | Update | Latest |
| ------------------ | ------- | ------ | ------ |
| @types/bun (dev) | 1.3.0 | 1.3.3 | 1.3.3 |
Or to exclude all @types/* packages:
bun outdated '!@types/*'
| Package | Current | Update | Latest |
| ------------------------------ | ------- | --------- | ---------- |
| @sinclair/typebox | 0.34.15 | 0.34.16 | 0.34.16 |
| eslint (dev) | 8.57.1 | 8.57.1 | 9.20.0 |
| eslint-plugin-security (dev) | 2.1.1 | 2.1.1 | 3.0.1 |
| eslint-plugin-sonarjs (dev) | 0.23.0 | 0.23.0 | 3.0.1 |
| expect-type (dev) | 0.16.0 | 0.16.0 | 1.1.0 |
| prettier (dev) | 3.4.2 | 3.5.0 | 3.5.0 |
| tsup (dev) | 8.3.5 | 8.3.6 | 8.3.6 |
| typescript (dev) | 5.7.2 | 5.7.3 | 5.7.3 |
Workspace Filters
Use the --filter flag to check for outdated dependencies in a different workspace package:
bun outdated --filter='@monorepo/types'
| Package | Current | Update | Latest |
| ------------------ | ------- | ------ | ------ |
| tsup (dev) | 8.3.5 | 8.3.6 | 8.3.6 |
| typescript (dev) | 5.7.2 | 5.7.3 | 5.7.3 |
You can pass multiple --filter flags to check multiple workspaces:
bun outdated --filter @monorepo/types --filter @monorepo/cli
| Package | Current | Update | Latest |
| ------------------------------ | ------- | ------ | ---------- |
| eslint (dev) | 8.57.1 | 8.57.1 | 9.20.0 |
| eslint-plugin-security (dev) | 2.1.1 | 2.1.1 | 3.0.1 |
| eslint-plugin-sonarjs (dev) | 0.23.0 | 0.23.0 | 3.0.1 |
| expect-type (dev) | 0.16.0 | 0.16.0 | 1.1.0 |
| tsup (dev) | 8.3.5 | 8.3.6 | 8.3.6 |
| typescript (dev) | 5.7.2 | 5.7.3 | 5.7.3 |
You can also pass glob patterns to filter by workspace names:
bun outdated --filter='@monorepo/{types,cli}'
| Package | Current | Update | Latest |
| ------------------------------ | ------- | ------ | ---------- |
| eslint (dev) | 8.57.1 | 8.57.1 | 9.20.0 |
| eslint-plugin-security (dev) | 2.1.1 | 2.1.1 | 3.0.1 |
| eslint-plugin-sonarjs (dev) | 0.23.0 | 0.23.0 | 3.0.1 |
| expect-type (dev) | 0.16.0 | 0.16.0 | 1.1.0 |
| tsup (dev) | 8.3.5 | 8.3.6 | 8.3.6 |
| typescript (dev) | 5.7.2 | 5.7.3 | 5.7.3 |
