 New datasources _must_ follow the class-based programming style.
 Use the `java-version` datasource as a reference.
 
-Add the datasource to the API in [`api.ts`](api.ts) so that the new datasource is usable. If you find `Pending mocks!` errors in the Jest tests and your mocked URLs are correct, ensure the datasource is correctly registered.

+Datasources that support digests (like Docker digests and Git commit hashes) can export a `getDigest` function.
 
 The `getDigest` function has two inputs:
 
 - `config`: the Renovate config for the package being updated, has the same fields as `getReleases`
 - `newValue`: the version or value to retrieve the digest for
 
-The `getDigest` function returns a string output representing the digest value. If none is found then a return value of `null` should be returned.
