- Relevant package files are discovered automatically
- Supports monorepo architectures like Lerna or Yarn workspaces with no extra configuration
- Bot behavior is customizable via configuration files (config as code)
- Use ESLint-like shared config presets for ease of use and simplifying configuration (JSON format only)
- Lock files are supported and updated in the same commit, including immediately resolving conflicts whenever PRs are merged
- Get replacement PRs to migrate from a deprecated dependency to the community suggested replacement (npm packages only)
- Open source (installable via npm/Yarn or Docker Hub) so can be self-hosted or used via GitHub App
## Supported Platforms
Renovate works on the following platforms:
- GitHub (.com and Enterprise)
- GitLab (.com and CE/EE)
- Bitbucket Cloud
- Bitbucket Server
- Azure DevOps
- Gitea
Renovate is widely used in the developer community:
We believe everyone benefits from automation, whether it's a little or a lot.
This means that Renovate:
- Adapts to your workflow
- Allows you to configure its behavior
- Will autodetect settings where possible
### GitHub
It's easiest to use the hosted Renovate app.
Install the [Renovate app](https://github.com/apps/renovate) now.
[More details on the GitHub App installation](https://docs.renovatebot.com/getting-started/installing-onboarding/).
### Azure DevOps
There are two ways to run Renovate on Azure DevOps:
- Renovate Me extension
- Custom pipeline
#### Renovate Me extension
Go to the Visual Studio Marketplace and install the [Renovate Me](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jyc.vsts-extensions-renovate-me) extension in your organization.
From there you can create a pipeline with the `RenovateMe` task.
[More details on how to configure the pipeline](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jyc.vsts-extensions-renovate-me).
**Note:** This extension is created and maintained personally by a Renovate developer/user so support requests relating to the extension itself cannot be answered directly in the main Renovate repository.
#### Custom pipeline
You can create a custom pipeline with a `yml` definition that triggers `npx renovate`.
[More details on how to configure the pipeline](https://docs.renovatebot.com/setup-azure-devops/).
### Bitbucket Cloud/Server, Gitea, GitLab
For Bitbucket Cloud, Bitbucket Server, Gitea and GitLab, use our self-hosting option.
Go to our [documentation website](https://docs.renovatebot.com/) to learn how to configure Renovate.
We have a [full list of configuration options](https://docs.renovatebot.com/configuration-options/).
To get help with your configuration, go to the [discussions tab in the Renovate repository](https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate/discussions) and open a new "config help" discussion post.
To run your own instance of Renovate you have several options:
- Install the `renovate` CLI tool from npmjs, run it on a schedule (e.g. using `cron`)
- Run the `renovate/renovate` Docker Hub image (same content/versions as the CLI tool), run it on a schedule
- Run the `renovate/renovate:slim` Docker Hub image if you only use package managers that don't need third-party binaries (e.g. JavaScript, Docker, NuGet, pip)
[More details on the self-hosting development](https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate/blob/main/docs/usage/getting-started/running.md).
