Overview

In aqua generate command's help there is an example for generating configuration, using the output of aqua list command. I.e. aqua list | aqua generate -f -. But when using aqua list --installed | aqua generate -f - instead (with the --installed option) it doesn't work, because the output of aqua list is formatted differently.

How to reproduce

aqua.yaml

---
checksum:
  supported_envs:
    - linux
registries:
  - type: local
    name: local
    path: registry.yaml
packages:
  - name: ziglang/[email protected]
    registry: local

Executed command and output

$ aqua list | aqua generate -f -
WARN[0000] skip adding a duplicate package               aqua_version=2.36.2 env=linux/amd64 package_name=ziglang/[email protected] package_registry=local package_version= program=aqua
- name: nodejs/[email protected]
  registry: local

$ aqua list --installed | aqua generate -f -
FATA[0000] aqua failed                                   aqua_version=2.36.2 env=linux/amd64 error="unknown package" package_name="standard,ziglang/zig\t0.13.0\tlocal" program=aqua

Debug output

No response

Expected behaviour

I would expect the output of aqua list and aqua list --installed to be formatted in the same way, in order to be used as an input to aqua generate.

Actual behaviour

$ aqua list
local,nodejs/node
local,ziglang/zig

$ aqua list --installed
ziglang/zig	0.13.0	local

To avoid opening a new issue, I'm using the above pipeline in order to check for updates. Since there is no standalone command for that. It would be nice though if there was an aqua check updates or aqua outdated command. With better output like showing current, new, latest versions, etc.

Why do you want to run aqua list --installed | aqua generate -f -?
aqua generate generates codes to add packages to aqua.yaml, but packages outputted by aqua list --installed have already been added to aqua.yaml.

Oh, sorry. I missed your comment.

aqua up updates packages, and if aqua.yaml isn't updated it means no package is updated.

Yes, but I want to have a command to just check for updates. Without applying them.
