auto upgrade packages on ubuntu

Posted on December 21, 2015

There are such a huge number of upgrades all the time for my Ubuntu droplets, system as well as app upgrades. I am sick of manually upgrading every week, is there an easy way to have the system perform these upgrades by itself, perhaps on a weekly schedule and with an email notification to me when completed? I am assuming I could write a bash script and run it in cron, but was wondering if there was some easier mechanism built into linux.
