Automated Dependency Updates for Maven

Categories: java

Renovate supports updating Maven dependencies.

File Matching¶

By default, Renovate will check any files matching any of the following regular expressions:

/(^|/|\.)pom\.xml$/
/^(((\.mvn)|(\.m2))/)?settings\.xml$/
/(^|/)\.mvn/extensions\.xml$/

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

This manager supports extracting the following datasources: maven, docker.

{
  "managerFilePatterns": [
    "/(^|/|\\.)pom\\.xml$/",
    "/^(((\\.mvn)|(\\.m2))/)?settings\\.xml$/",
    "/(^|/)\\.mvn/extensions\\.xml$/"
  ]
}

The maven manager focuses on extracting dependencies from pom.xml. It uses the official Maven versioning scheme.

It also supports Image Customizations of spring-boot's OCI packaging. Usage of registryAliases is possible only for container image references.

Currently maven properties are not supported for buildpack related dependencies.
