Save folks a few keystrokes. There is a command which already has a '-u' option, document-export, but it doesn't support --user so there should be no conflict. However '-s' is used by the info command among others, so we can't use that for --system.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Updates applications and runtimes. <arg choice="plain">REF</arg> is a reference to the
|
|
application or runtime to update. If no <arg choice="plain">REF</arg> is given, everything
|
|
is updated, as well as appstream info for all remotes.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Each <arg choice="plain">REF</arg> argument is a full or partial identifier in the
|
|
flatpak ref format, which looks like "(app|runtime)/ID/ARCH/BRANCH". All elements
|
|
except ID are optional and can be left out, including the slashes,
|
|
so most of the time you need only specify ID. Any part left out will be matched
|
|
against what is installed, and if there are multiple matches an error message
|
|
will list the alternatives.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
By default this looks for both apps and runtimes with the given <arg choice="plain">REF</arg>,
|
|
but you can limit this by using the <option>--app</option> or <option>--runtime</option> option, or by supplying the initial
|
|
element in the <arg choice="plain">REF</arg>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Normally, this command updates the application to the tip
|
|
of its branch. But it is possible to check out another commit,
|
|
with the <option>--commit</option> option.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If the configured remote for a ref being updated has a collection ID configured on it,
|
|
Flatpak will search the <filename>sideload-repos</filename> directories configured
|
|
either with the <option>--sideload-repo</option> option, or on a per-installation or
|
|
system-wide basis (see
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>flatpak</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>).
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Note that updating a runtime is different from installing
|
|
a different branch, and runtime updates are expected to keep
|
|
strict compatibility. If an application update does cause
|
|
a problem, it is possible to go back to the previous
|
|
version, with the <option>--commit</option> option.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
In addition to updates, this command will offer to uninstall any unused end-of-life
|
|
runtimes. Runtimes that were explicitly installed (not as a dependency) or explicitly
|
|
pinned (see <citerefentry><refentrytitle>flatpak-pin</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>)
|
|
are left installed even if unused and end-of-life.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Unless overridden with the <option>--user</option>, <option>--system</option> or <option>--installation</option> option, this command updates
|
|
any matching refs in the standard system-wide installation and the per-user one.
