ci/cd

This item was not updated in last three versions of the Radar. Should it have appeared in one of the more recent editions, there is a good chance it remains pertinent. However, if the item dates back further, its relevance may have diminished and our current evaluation could vary. Regrettably, our capacity to consistently revisit items from past Radar editions is limited.

Renovate is an automated dependency update tool. It vastly reduces the time and effort spent on keeping a project's dependencies up-to-date by automatically creating merge requests whenever a dependency needs to be updated. The tool is easy to set up and configure, offers built-in support for monorepo architectures and works with various programming languages and package managers, e.g.

JavaScript & Yarn
Java & Gradle
PHP & Composer

At DCX, we use the Renovate CLI tool in the CI pipelines of a constantly growing number of projects.
