My shareable config for Renovate

1. Enable Renovate in your repo
2. Add this repo to extends in your renovate.json.

{
  "extends": ["github>sammcj/renovate-config"]
}

You don't have to do npm i -D @sammcj/renovate-config - Renovate fetches it from this GitHub repo automatically.

Note: By default my config auto-merges pin/minor/patch updates if the checks pass and there isn't a CODEOWNERS file preventing it.

Default config

• Automerge (if there's no CODEOWNERS preventing it).
  • Package pinning if tests pass.
  • Patch upgrades if tests pass.
  • Non-major Github Actions updates.
• Ignore node_modules, bower_components, and various test/tests directories.
• Automagically rebase stale PRs.
• Apply label renovate to PRs.
• Limit to maximum 10 concurrent Renovate PRs at any time.
• Wait until branch tests have passed or failed before creating the PR.
• If semantic commits detected, use semantic commit type fix for deps and peerDeps, chore for all others.
• Use Australia/Melbourne timezone.
• Enable the Renovate Dependency Dashboard.
• Use conventional commits with fix, deps and chore scopes.
• Enable docker tag updates (preview feature).
• Enable docker-compose updates (preview feature).

Grouping:

• Group preset monorepo packages updates.
• Group preset aws-cdk packages updates.
• Group present aws-sdk-js-v3 packages updates.
• Group Github Actions updates.
• Group preset jekyll ecosystem packages updates.
• Group Dockerfile and Docker-Compose updates.

• Separate major, minor and patch releases of dependencies into individual branches/PRs.
• Set a status check to warn when npmjs.com packages are less than < 72 hours old and as such are allowed to be unpublished.
• Run npm dedupe after package-lock.json updates.
• Disable major upgrade of @types/node (e.g. v16 to v17).
• Upgrade semver ranges to latest version even if latest version satisfies existing range.
• Group ESLint, ESLint configs, ESLint plugins and Prettier together.
• Automerge minor updates of widely used libraries like mocha in devDependencies.
• Replace the deprecated bable-eslint with @babel/eslint-parser if found.

• Run following schedule: before 3am every Saturday
