Local

The "local" platform exists to allow users to perform dry runs against the local file system, such as to test out new config.

Usage

Run renovate --platform=local in the directory you want Renovate to run in. In this mode, Renovate will default to dryRun=lookup. No "repositories" arguments should be provided, as you cannot run against multiple directories or run in the non-working directory.

It is possible to run on both a git and non-git directory. Config is optional - so it will run either with or without any "repo config" found.

It does not do any "compare" or before and after analysis - if your purpose is to test a new config then you will need to manually compare.

Limitations

  • local> presets cannot be resolved. Normally these would point to the local platform such as GitHub, but in the case of running locally, it does not exist
  • baseBranches are ignored
  • Branch creation is not supported
