PHP Documentation

<?php
/**
		 * Filters whether to automatically update core, a plugin, a theme, or a language.
		 *
		 * The dynamic portion of the hook name, `$type`, refers to the type of update
		 * being checked.
		 *
		 * Possible hook names include:
		 *
		 *  - `auto_update_core`
		 *  - `auto_update_plugin`
		 *  - `auto_update_theme`
		 *  - `auto_update_translation`
		 *
		 * Since WordPress 3.7, minor and development versions of core, and translations have
		 * been auto-updated by default. New installs on WordPress 5.6 or higher will also
		 * auto-update major versions by default. Starting in 5.6, older sites can opt-in to
		 * major version auto-updates, and auto-updates for plugins and themes.
		 *
		 * See the {@see 'allow_dev_auto_core_updates'}, {@see 'allow_minor_auto_core_updates'},
		 * and {@see 'allow_major_auto_core_updates'} filters for a more straightforward way to
		 * adjust core updates.
		 *
		 * @since 3.7.0
		 * @since 5.5.0 The `$update` parameter accepts the value of null.
		 *
		 * @param bool|null $update Whether to update. The value of null is internally used
		 *                          to detect whether nothing has hooked into this filter.
		 * @param object    $item   The update offer.
