workflow update

[relekang]

It would be nice to be able to update all workflow packages in workflow home with a simple command.

$ workflow update
The following will be updated:
  · workflow-core          1.0.0 -> 1.1.0
  · workflow-app-chrome    1.0.1 -> 1.0.2
Are you sure? (y/N)

@relekang I've updated the description and title to match #89

Should we move to ~ dependencies and make this run npm update ?

And concerning packaging for this and future commands, we have a few options:

1. Implement this as part of workflow-cmd.
2. Implement this as workflow-cmd-update or workflow-update and call it from workflow.
3. Implement this as workflow-cmd-update or workflow-update and call if from workflow-cmd.

I'm leaning towards (3) and the possibility of extracting workflow-cmd/src/index into workflow-cmd-apply. Thus leaving the workflow-cmd with the responsibility of choosing the command and executing the appropriate package, defaulting to apply.

I don't understand what the benefits of separating workflow-cmd into different packages vs files in the workflow-cmd package. Can you elaborate?

Don't think it will give us the overview and make it possible to ask the question. I was thinking, maybe see if we can use npm-check-updates or something like a library.

Maybe just an old habit to separate things, but as you say, there are not any real benefits for doing so at this point.

Sure, I was thinking of doing npm outdated and then npm update. But if there is a library that solves this, then we can go with it 👍
