Use Renovate to keep repositories update to date #65

Closed chrislovecnm closed 1 year ago

chrislovecnm commented 1 year ago

Hi all

When I was working with Google on PSO projects, we used Renovate to keep rule versions up to date. Here is the support https://docs.renovatebot.com/bazel/

Does anyone have an issue with starting to use it?

If we add it, we should add it to the Bazel Learning Paths repo. Does that seem right?

No issue; I use it extensively internally. One thing to note is it doesn't work if the WORKSPACE file is using variables to set things like sha's as it's just a glorified text replacement engine and not a starlark interpretor. The other question is do we self-host an instance on github actions or do we use the public one? Given all the repos are public anyway I'd say we're fine with the public instance?

I'm not sure which "repositories" you're referencing here. Do you mean this repo itself? Other repositories in the bazel-contrib org? I've enabled the Renovate app for all repos in the org now so I think this can be closed.
