The following environment variables are "experimental" because they:
- are not commonly needed
- are typically an effort to work around some other service's or platform's problem
- can be removed at any time
- are variables for Renovate's internal use to validate they work as intended
Experimental variables which are commonly used and for which there is no external solution in sight can be converted to an official configuration option by the Renovate bot developers.
Use these experimental variables at your own risk. We do not follow Semantic Versioning for any experimental variables. These variables may be removed or have their behavior changed in any version. We will try to keep breakage to a minimum, but make no guarantees that an experimental variable will keep working.
If set to any integer, Renovate will use this integer instead of the default npm cache time (15 minutes) for the npm datasource.
If set to any value, Renovate will skip its default artifacts filter check in the Maven datasource. Skipping the check will speed things up, but may result in versions being returned which don't properly exist on the server.
If set to any value, Renovate will always paginate requests to GitHub fully, instead of stopping after 10 pages.
If set to "false" (string), Renovate will remove any existing package-lock.json
before trying to update it.
If set to any string, Renovate will use this as the user-agent
it sends with HTTP requests.
If set to any value, Renovate will use a "hard" process.exit()
once all work is done, even if a sub-process is otherwise delaying Node.js from exiting.
See issue 8660 for background on why this was created.
Suppress the default warning when a deprecated version of Node.js is used to run Renovate.
Skip initializing RE2
for regular expressions and instead use Node-native RegExp
instead.
If set, Renovate will use this string as GitLab server version instead of checking via the GitLab API.
This can be useful when you use the GitLab CI_JOB_TOKEN
to authenticate Renovate.
Read platform details to learn why we need the server version on GitLab.
If set, Renovate will use this string as the endpoint
when instantiating the AWS S3 client.
If set, Renovate will enable forcePathStyle
when instantiating the AWS S3 client.
Whether to force path style URLs for S3 objects (e.g.,
https://s3.amazonaws.com//
instead ofhttps://.s3.amazonaws.com/
)

If set, Renovate will terminate the whole process group of a terminated child process spawned by Renovate.
If set, you'll get the following behavior.
When using matchPackageNames
and matchPackagePatterns
matchers:
- Renovate first tries to match against
depName
- If
depName
doesn't match then Renovate tries to match againstpackageName
If set, Renovate will query this API for Merge Confidence data. This feature is in private beta.
