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$

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

This manager supports extracting the following datasources: maven.

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

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