This feature is already available using the latest
syntax. From the help:
asdf install <name> latest[:<version>]
Install the latest stable version of a package, or with optional version,
install the latest stable version that begins with the given string
For your specific case, the command would be:
asdf install java latest:adoptopenjdk-11
There are currently three LTS
versions of Java: 8
, 11
, and 17
. You can use the above command to install your desired version, substituting the appropriate version number.
You could also create or add to your .tool-versions
file so it contains (for example):
java latest:adoptopenjdk-8 latest:adoptopenjdk-11 latest:adoptopenjdk-17
Then run the following command to install the latest version of all three LTS
versions.
asdf install
doesn't appear to work, sorry for the long delay on reply

I just installed asdf-java
asdf install java latest:adoptopenjdk-11
worked
Someone should add some example commands to the README
Side note: running asdf list-all java
- while technically performing its function - is practically useless for trying to understand the latest releases - it floods the CLI.
hey, could these examples be added to the readme ^. because I went to look this up here when I couldn't find it. Which kind of sucks.
I would but not allowed to per work policy/proxy and not doing hobby coding atm
FWIW I don't think this works for graalvm, because there are jdk17 and jdk11 versions (and they come at the end of the version string, so prefix matching doesn't really work)
Specifically, I'd like to be able to do
adoptopenjdk-11
as I am rarely interested in a specific patch release, but want the latest of a given version.Ideally, I might also have
adoptopenjdk-lts
. I would think it would be good to have these for all the different jdk's ( god oracle, what a mess, :/ ). Also, maybe,adoptopenjdk-latest
.Just trying asdf out, so I'm not certain how easy this is.
