Add renovatebot configuration

Open Turbo87 opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

This PR adds a basic configuration file for https://docs.renovatebot.com. The configuration was derived from what we are using at https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io/blob/main/.github/renovate.json5, but significantly simplified.

This should hopefully help us in keeping the dependencies of this project a bit more up-to-date :)

@rust-lang/website any thoughts on this? :)

What about Dependabot? It's built-in to GitHub.

renovate is a lot more flexible/configurable, feature-rich and open source :)

@Manishearth ?

@Turbo87 Can we put this on a schedule, say once or month or so, to reduce the spam?

we definitely can. question is whether we should… 😅

I personally prefer having updates visible as soon as they are available and my email client ignores all GitHub notifications from renovatebot. I'm open to changing it though if the other maintainers of this repo would prefer that. the dependency dashboard would show the pending updates anyway, with an option to trigger them manually.
