Hi all, I've been playing with dependabot as a tool to get automatic update PRs when a project releases. First I've experimented on a separate codebase, then used it on imageio-ext with good success, and finally on GeoWebCache... why those two? Because they are small.
At first one receives quite a bit of PRs (I set the limit to at most 10 per day) and most of them are easily actionable <https://github.com/GeoWebCache/geowebcache/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed>. Others are larger upgrades that break API or <https://github.com/GeoWebCache/geowebcache/pulls/dependabot%5Bbot%5D>come with deprecation <https://github.com/GeoWebCache/geowebcache/pulls/dependabot%5Bbot%5D>, and will need some manual work. A small amount get confused by the too many concurrent changes to pom and configuration and will need to be recreated manually. Here is the configuration file that I've been using <https://github.com/GeoWebCache/geowebcache/blob/main/.github/dependabot.yml> . Now... I plan to land this on GeoTools as well. Since it's the central management point for most dependencies, I expect to see quite a bit of traffic and some further adjustments to the configuration. This canon the done in the safety of a PR, the config needs to be committed for dependabot to take action, so expect a bit of traffic. I plan to do that in the next few days, if there are concerns please speak up. Regards, Andrea Aime == GeoServer Professional Services from the experts!
