Default config

Additional Information

Renovate uses this manager to update dependencies defined in the build definitions for the OpenTelemetry Collector Builder (ocb).

By default, the ocb manager has no fileMatch patterns. This means you must set a fileMatch pattern for the ocb manager, in order for Renovate to update your ocb files. Here's a configuration example:

If your builder files are named like foo-builder.yml or builder.yaml

{
  "ocb": {
    "fileMatch": ["builder.ya?ml$"]
  }
}

Supported dependencies and their respective depTypes are:

Name	depType
base collector	collector
connectors	connectors
exports	exports
