How Can I Manage and Update Go Module Dependencies?

Go Mod Dependency Management

Similar to the npm-outdated command in Node.js, Go mod provides several options for managing and updating project dependencies.

Listing All Dependencies (Direct and Indirect)

To list all available minor and patch updates for both direct and indirect dependencies, run the following command:

go list -u -m all

This will provide a report of all outdated dependencies.

Listing Only Direct Dependencies

If you only want to see the outdated dependencies of your current project (direct dependencies), you can use a custom output format to filter out indirect dependencies:

go list -u -m -f '{{if not .Indirect}}{{.}}{{end}}' all

Listing Dependencies with Updates

To only list dependencies that have available updates, use this command:

go list -u -m -f '{{if .Update}}{{.}}{{end}}' all

External Tools

In addition to the built-in Go mod commands, there is also a third-party app called go-mod-outdated that provides a table view of outdated dependencies with filtering options.
