This directory contains tools necessary to run Renovate manually against our repositories.

For reasons unknown to us this currently (2023-07) does not work from within Jenkins, which is why we run it manually. I am not sure if we have tried to move it into a GitHub Action, which would be one reasonable thing to try.

You need an access token for GitHub for the Stacky McStackface user (repo & workflow scope at least). The script assumes an environment variable named GITHUB_TOKEN exists.

Then just run run_renovate.sh. The script list_repos.sh will return a list of all non-archived, non-fork repositories for Stackable.

Search for Skipping (e.g. Skipping branch deletion or Skipping branch creation) to find out why a PR has not been created.
