Can you give me an example of a CI configuration?

Sure! If you're using GitHub Actions, your workflow file might look like this:

name: CI

on: [push]

jobs:
  update-dependencies:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Install npm-check-updates
        run: npm install -g npm-check-updates
      - name: Run npm-check-updates
        run: ncu -u
