How to auto-update packages installed with pkg, pip?

[DominiqueSite]

I have read the wiki page regarding auto-updating packages in Termux, which left me with the following questions:

1. If I execute pkg install python, does the python package get automatically updated? The build.sh of python says TERMUX_PKG_AUTO_UPDATE=false, which I interpret as a no. If my interpretation is correct, what other ways are there to automatically update packages installed with pkg? I am specifically asking – and thankful – for a wiki page or line-by-line instructions.
2. Does this functionality also apply to python packages installed via pip (e.g. by executing pip install radicale)? If not, how do I enable automatic updates of python packages installed with pip? Again, I am specifically asking – and thankful – for a wiki page or line-by-line instructions.

TERMUX_PKG_AUTO_UPDATE only applies to the building/rebuilding of packages on the repositories.
Packages for which it is enabled will be periodically checked for updates and the build system will attempt to automatically update them by incrementing to the new version number, updating the package checksums and starting a package build action.

This functionality is enabled for most "simple" packages.
Usually packages not requiring extensive patches.

It is explicitly disabled for "core" packages such as Python, which many other packages rely on.
And which require extensive compatibility testing before being updated.

This is mostly separate from updating packages on your device.
You can update your local packages using the pkg utility, which will wrap either apt (default) or pacman.

pkg up will perform a full update of all packages to the latest version available on the repositories of your selected Termux mirror.

Please be aware that Termux uses a "rolling release" model and does not support "partial upgrades".
Please update all of your packages when updating packages.

It is possible to script pkg to perform updates automatically, though this isn't recommended.

pip is provided as Python's language specific package manager and is offered without guarantee of compatibility.

Most pip modules should work just fine.
But some modules relying on natively compiled code, such as NumPy or Pandas will not work on Termux without patches, in such cases the modules may be offered as regular packages in the repositories NumPy and Pandas being python-numpy and python-pandas respectively.

pip could also be scripted to automatically update packages, though again this is not recommended and does not come with a guarantee of compatibility.

TERMUX_PKG_AUTO_UPDATE=false is not relevant to Termux installations at all.

This variable is used ONLY by Termux developer scripts. When it is true, the script will automatically fetch new source version attempt to build it and if ok, push a package update to our Git repository.

Nothing to do with pkg or pip.

If you want automatic updates within Termux, then, please, write own script that would fulfill your requirements and launch it via crond or other automation methods such as Tasker + Termux:Tasker plug-in.

yes | pkg upgrade -yq - unconditionally upgrade all Termux packages except pip modules.

pip3 install -y --upgrade module_1 module_2 ... module_N - upgrade specific pip modules.

Pay attention that some modules may require different pip arguments.

Though, Termux DOES NOT RECOMMEND to automatically upgrade packages unless you are prepared to get environment broken at some point. Yes, environment definitely will be broken with 100% probability when using automated updates.
