I’m quite happy with my #forgejo replacement for #github. i was missing dependabot enforced correctness and installed a Renovate container. IMO it’s an improvement over the github approach. love it.

I use renovate bot for my self-hosted forgejo. It works pretty well but I think the documentation could be better. I had some settings in my config.js that was supposed to go into my repo’s renovate.json and I had no idea
oh? something specific you can share?
So I haven’t tested this specific example (but it should work):
"packageRules": [ { "matchDatasources": ["docker"], "matchPackageNames": ["ghcr.io/netbootxyz/netbootxyz"], "versioning": "regex:^(?<major>\\d+)\\.(?<minor>\\d+)\\.(?<patch>\\d+)-nbxyz(?<build>\\d+)$" } ]Netboot.xyz has its docker images tagged in a non-standard way necessitating a custom package rule so that renovate bot can properly pick up updates. I thought this went into the config.js that renovate bot uses for its own configuration but no it goes in your repo’s renovate.json file like so:
{ "$schema": "https://docs.renovatebot.com/renovate-schema.json", "extends": [ "config:recommended" ], "packageRules": [ { "matchDatasources": ["docker"], "matchPackageNames": ["ghcr.io/netbootxyz/netbootxyz"], "versioning": "regex:^(?<major>\\d+)\\.(?<minor>\\d+)\\.(?<patch>\\d+)-nbxyz(?<build>\\d+)$" } ], "assignees": [ "UntouchedWagons" ], "reviewers": [ "UntouchedWagons" ] }
