Automated Dependency Updates for Gradle
Renovate supports updating Gradle dependencies.
File Matching¶
By default, Renovate will check any files matching any of the following regular expressions:
\.gradle(\.kts)?$
(^|/)gradle\.properties$
(^|/)gradle/.+\.toml$
\.versions\.toml$
(^|/)versions.props$
(^|/)versions.lock$
For details on how to extend a manager's fileMatch value, please follow this link.
Supported datasources¶
This manager supports extracting the following datasources: maven.
References## Default config¶
{
"fileMatch": [
"\\.gradle(\\.kts)?$",
"(^|/)gradle\\.properties$",
"(^|/)gradle/.+\\.toml$",
"\\.versions\\.toml$",
"(^|/)versions.props$",
"(^|/)versions.lock$"
],
"timeout": 600,
"versioning": "gradle"
}
Additional Information¶
The gradle manager uses a custom parser written in JavaScript, similar to many others managers.
It does not call gradle directly in order to extract a list of dependencies.
Updating lockfiles¶
Updating lockfiles is done with ./gradlew :dependencies --wirte/update-locks command.
This command can output excessive text to the console.
While running the command, the output to stdout is dropped when you run Renovate on most platforms other than Windows.
