Python script for upgrading all python packages, which is still a big missing pip functionality. The script runs pip list -o command to get all outdated packages. Then it creates a thread for all of the found upgradable packages and runs pip install -U %pckg on them.

pip install pupg

python -m pupg [-h] [-l LIMIT] [-c] [-v]

• -h, --help - show help message and exit
• -l LIMIT, --limit LIMIT - set default upgrade try limit (default=3) allowing safely abort upgrade of a package after given number of tries
• -c, --check - check if upgrade was successful at the and of the script; simply runs pip list -o again and check if the list is zero
• -v, --verbose - not implemented yet
