For details on how to extend a manager's managerFilePatterns value, please follow this link.

Supported datasources

This manager supports extracting the following datasources: nuget.

Default config

{
  "managerFilePatterns": [
    "/\\.cake$/"
  ]
}

Additional Information

Extracts dependencies from *.cake files.

It can also extract dotnet: tool packages when used in .NET single file builds, when they are used with the InstallTool or InstallTools method. Keep in mind that those files are usually not *.cake files but C# code files. Those are not included in the managerFilePatterns per default - make sure to include them manually in your configuration if you want to use this feature.#:packageor#:sdk directives are not handled by the cake manager as this is a dotnet feature. Those are separately handled by the nuget manager.
