update_checker

A python module that will check for package updates.

Only whitelisted packages can be checked for updates. Contact update_checker's author for information on adding a package to the whitelist.

Installation

The update_checker module can be installed via:

uv add update_checker

Usage

To simply output when there is a newer version of the praw package, you can use the following bit of code:

from update_checker import update_check

update_check("praw", "0.0.1")

If you need more control, such as performing operations conditionally when there is an update you can use the following approach:

from update_checker import UpdateChecker

checker = UpdateChecker()
result = checker.check(package_name="praw", package_version="0.0.1")
if result:  # result is None when an update was not found or a failure occured
    # result is a UpdateResult object that contains the following attributes:
    # * available_version
    # * package_name
    # * running_version
    # * release_date (is None if the information isn't available)
    print(result)
    # Conditionally perform other actions

Async usage

Install the async extra (uv add "update_checker[async]") and use the async counterparts:

from update_checker import UpdateChecker, async_update_check

await async_update_check(package_name="praw", package_version="0.0.1")

checker = UpdateChecker()
result = await checker.async_check(package_name="praw", package_version="0.0.1")
