Renovate Operator (Kubernetes)

The Renovate Operator lets you run Renovate on Kubernetes in a native way. It wraps the Renovate CLI in a Kubernetes operator and adds features like:

  • CRD-based scheduling with declarative cron syntax
  • Parallel execution with configurable concurrency control
  • Auto-discovery of repositories
  • Built-in web dashboard for monitoring and management
  • Webhook API for on-demand runs
  • Prometheus metrics and health checks

renovate-pretty-log

renovate-pretty-log is a set of utilities to provide a richer, local-only view, for your Renovate debug logs.

The project is maintained by Renovate maintainer Jamie Tanna.

renovate-pretty-log-tui

renovate-pretty-log-tui is a Terminal User Interface (TUI) to provide a richer, local-only view, for your Renovate debug logs.

asciicast showing an interactive session with a multi-repository Renovate run, with a split pane showing the log lines themselves, and a separate pane to view additional log context. There is also a summary view which shows high-level information about the repository

It also provides more advanced searching and filtering:

asciicast showing how to search and filter the logs in a given Renovate run

And can be used to surface issues in repository runs more visually:

asciicast showing the investigation of a Renovate run that has ended with a config-validation error

HTML exports

There are some additional utilities in the project, including the ability to generate a single-page HTML view of the logs:

renovate-pretty-log -path /path/to/debug.log -html > report.html

You can see a live example of what this looks like from one of Renovate's own runs..
