The script
NOTE: this is a work-in-progress. I'm hoping to spend a bit of time converting this to a github action or something like it! for now.
This would even be nice to print out a simple visual "report" that can be visible as a pipeline asset.
const { exec } = require('child_process');
exec('npm -- outdated', (error, stdout, stderr) => {
console.log('stdout');
console.log(stdout);
console.log('stderr');
console.log(stderr);
if (error !== null) {
console.log(`exec error: ${error}`);
}
});
