Is it possible to "extend" inside of technology keys?

[buehler]

I'm trying to make a renovate default config for my repositories. I'd like to use some extend functions within technologies with some base configs.

If I have the following dotnet.json file (on github):

{
  "packageRules": [
    {
      "paths": [
        "tests/**/*",
        "config/CodeAnalysis.targets"
      ],
      "groupName": "testing dependencies",
      "groupSlug": "test",
      "semanticCommitType": "chore",
      "semanticCommitScope": "test deps"
    },
    {
      "paths": [
        "build/**/*"
      ],
      "groupName": "build dependencies",
      "groupSlug": "build",
      "semanticCommitType": "chore",
      "semanticCommitScope": "build deps"
    },
    {
      "paths": [
        "src/**/*"
      ],
      "groupName": "dependencies",
      "semanticCommitType": "fix",
      "semanticCommitScope": "deps"
    }
  ]
}

is it possible to extend it inside the dotnet and nuget config objects?
example:

{
  "$schema": "http://docs.renovatebot.com/renovate-schema.json",
  "extends": [
    "config:base"
  ],
  "labels": [
    "dependencies"
  ],
  "vulnerabilityAlerts": {
    "labels": [
      "dependencies-security"
    ]
  },
  "automerge": true,
  "schedule": ["after 9pm", "before 6am"],
  "dotnet": {
    "extends": ["github>foobar:dotnet"]  <<<<<<<<
  }
}

?

Yes, I think that should be possible. When you extend a config, it essentially just copies the contents of the preset into the config object that it's referenced in.

alright, I'm going to try it, thank you :-)
as soon as I know, I'm going to mark the answer for others to find

as it seems, this works :-)
thank you!
