Upgrade more than one package but not all of them

[rafrafek]

Hello,

How to run pipx upgrade on more than one package but not on all of them? Or how to upgrade all packages but not one? I need to upgrade everything but leave an older version of Poetry not updated.

➜  ~ pipx --version
1.5.0
➜  ~ pipx upgrade aws-sso-util awsume black pylint pyupgrade
usage: pipx [-h] [--quiet] [--verbose] [--global] [--version]
            {install,uninject,inject,upgrade,upgrade-all,uninstall,uninstall-all,reinstall,reinstall-all,list,interpreter,run,runpip,ensurepath,environment,completions} ...
pipx: error: unrecognized arguments: awsume black pylint pyupgrade
➜  ~ 

There is #1102 but it's only about installing, not upgrading.

You can run pipx upgrade-all --skip <packages you want to skip> for now. However, I think it's a good idea to allow pipx upgrade to accept multiple packages at the same time, just like the install command.

Thank you! The --skip option works great in my case!

With the --skip thing mentioned, personally I’m not sure why upgrade can’t take multiple apps myself either… It seems to make sense.
