paket update [--help] [--version <version constraint>] [--group <name>] [--create-new-binding-files]
             [--force] [--redirects] [--clean-redirects] [--no-install] [--keep-major]
             [--keep-minor] [--keep-patch] [--filter] [--touch-affected-refs] <package id>

NUGET:

    <package id>          NuGet package ID

OPTIONS:

    --version, -V <version constraint>
                          dependency version constraint
    --group, -g <name>    specify dependency group to update (default: all groups)
    --create-new-binding-files
                          create binding redirect files if needed
    --force, -f           force download and reinstallation of all dependencies
    --redirects           create binding redirects
    --clean-redirects     remove binding redirects that were not created by Paket
    --no-install          do not modify projects
    --keep-major          only allow updates that preserve the major version
    --keep-minor          only allow updates that preserve the minor version
    --keep-patch          only allow updates that preserve the patch version
    --filter              treat the NuGet package ID as a regex to filter packages
    --touch-affected-refs touch project files referencing affected dependencies to help incremental
                          build tools detecting the change
    --silent, -s          suppress console output
    --verbose, -v         print detailed information to the console
    --log-file <path>     print output to a file
    --help                display this list of options.

If you add the --verbose flag Paket will run in verbose mode and show detailed information.

With --log-file [path] you can trace the logged information into a file.

Updating all packages

If you do not specify a package, then all packages from paket.dependencies are updated.

1: 

paket update

First, the current paket.lock file is deleted. paket update then recomputes the current dependency resolution, as explained under Package resolution algorithm, and writes it to paket.lock file. It then proceeds to download the packages and to install them into the projects.

Please see paket install if you want to keep the current versions from your paket.lock file.

Updating a single package, or packages matching a pattern

It's also possible to update only specified packages and to keep all other dependencies fixed:

1: 
2: 

paket update <package id>
paket update <package id> --filter

The --filter parameter makes Paket interpret the <package id> as a regular expression pattern to match against, rather than a single package. Paket enforces a "total" match (i.e. an implicit ^ and $ at beginning and end of <package id> as added).

Updating a single group

If you want to update a single group you can use the following command:

1: 

paket update --group <group>

Updating http dependencies

If you want to update a file you need to use the paket install command or paket update command with the --force parameter.

Using groups for http dependent files can be helpful in order to reduce the number of files that are reinstalled.
