npm update respects semver constraints.

This command will update all the packages listed to the latest version (specified by the tag config), respecting the semver constraints of both your package and its dependencies (if they also require the same package).

According to the package.json, the constraints are

  • @sentry/node: exact version
  • bull-board, dotenv, pm2, puppeteer: caret range

The packages are up-to-date according to these constraints.

To get the latest versions, you can install packages with the @latest tag.

Note that these are major version updates - things can break.
