Description

I want do know from command line if all enabled apps can be updated for use with subsequent nextcloud version.

Something like occ apps:upgradable should give a list of enabled apps that have a compatible version for subsequent nextcloud version and a list of enabled apps that don't.

Unfortunately this won't be implemented in updater.phar according to https://github.com/nextcloud/updater/issues/241 .

Using the web interface this can be seen in update view (Settings --> Overview --> Version).

Research direction

Start by comparing the existing web update view under Settings → Overview → Version with the updater.phar limitation described in updater/issues/241. The command should report which enabled apps are compatible with the subsequent Nextcloud version and which are not; no source file or test is named in the issue.
