This distinguishes it from other plugins in the wild, most of which do not respect version constraints. With an optional security scan and an interface for other plugins, it provides an elegant way to highlight the successes of your project. Especially in interaction with the [reporter plugin](https://github.com/eliashaeussler/composer-update-reporter), it enables automated quality assurance of your projects. πŸš€ Features ---------- [](#rocket-features) - Detects outdated dependencies in your `composer.lock`, based on the version constraints - Provides multiple exclusion patterns (ignore packages, skip dev-requirements) - Optional security scan - Smooth integration into Composer lifecycle - Easy extensible via event listeners - Optional [reporter plugin](https://github.com/eliashaeussler/composer-update-reporter)to create and send reports to various services πŸ”₯ Installation -------------- [](#fire-installation) ``` composer require eliashaeussler/composer-update-check ``` 🚒 Changelog ----------- [](#ship-changelog) View all notable release notes in the [Changelog](CHANGELOG.md). πŸ’Ž Credits --------- [](#gem-credits) [Business vector created by studiogstock - www.freepik.com](https://www.freepik.com/vectors/business) ⭐ License --------- [](#star-license) This project is licensed under [GNU General Public License 3.0 (or later)](LICENSE.md). ### Health Score 46 β€” FairBetter than 92% of packages Maintenance43 Moderate activity, may be stable Popularity29 Limited adoption so far Community14 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity81 Battle-tested with a long release history Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 86% of commits β€” single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** β€” Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
