Another best way to update and upgrade OSX development tools using command line is as follows:

Open terminal on OSX and type below commands. Try 'sudo' as prefix if you don't have admin privileges.

brew update

and for upgrading outdated tools and libraries use below command

brew upgrade

These will update all packages like node, rethinkDB and much more.

Also, softwareupdate --install --all this command also work best.

Important: Remove all outdated packages and free some space using the simple command.

brew cleanup
