The update command updates your installed plugins to their latest versions. It is a convenient shortcut for npx quartz plugin update.
Usage
Update all installed plugins:
npx quartz updateUpdate specific plugins by name:
npx quartz update my-plugin another-pluginHow it Works
For each plugin, update fetches the latest commit from the plugin’s remote repository and rebuilds it. If a plugin was installed from a specific branch (e.g., github:user/repo#my-branch), updates will track that branch instead of the default branch. Local plugins (added from a file path) are rebuilt without any git operations. The lockfile (quartz.lock.json) is updated with the new commit hashes.
This is functionally identical to running:
npx quartz plugin updateFlags
The update command supports the standard common flags (--directory, --verbose).
