Uses gradle-versions-plugin to supply tasks that can show updateable dependencies and also update them.

Apply it with:

plugins {
 id "se.bjurr.gradle.update-versions" version "X"
}

It adds these tasks:

• ./gradlew showUpdateableDependencies - Print list of dependencies that can be updated.
• ./gradlew updateDependencies - Update dependencies that can be updated.

It will:

• Work with both Groovy .gradle and Kotlin .gradle.kts files.
• Look for both dependencies and plugins DSL.

It can be tweaked:

updateVersions {
  ignoreDependenciesRegexp.set("anything matching this regexp will be ignored")
}
