# Deployment
|
|
|
|
Before deploying the script for scheduled runs, it's recommend you test your
|
|
settings locally first.
|
|
|
|
## Server cron
|
|
|
|
Adding `renovate` as a `cron` job is the simplest way to deploy.
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
Install using `npm install -g`.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
At a minimum, you will need to configure the token and repository list. Simplest
|
|
would be to specify both via CLI. Alternatively, configure the token via
|
|
Environment Variable if you don't want it to show in any cron logs.
|
|
|
|
Running daily should suit most people. At most, hourly.
|
|
|
|
## Heroku
|
|
|
|
Heroku free dynos provide a good way to host this for free. Set it up with the
|
|
following commands:
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
The best way to deploy to Heroku is via git and Heroku CLI.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/renovateapp/renovate
|
|
$ cd renovate
|
|
$ heroku create [app name]
|
|
$ git push heroku master
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
You now need to set the token.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ heroku config:set GITHUB_TOKEN=[YourGitHubToken]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
(or use `GITLAB_TOKEN` if appropriate)
|
|
|
|
You should also set any other [Configuration Options](configuration.md) you
|
|
need.
|
|
|
|
The app should now be ready for testing.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ heroku run renovate [your/repo]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once you've verified the script ran successfully, it's time to set it up for
|
|
automatic scheduling.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ heroku addons:create scheduler:standard
|
|
$ heroku addons:open scheduler
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
At this point you should have the Heroku Scheduler Dashboard open. Click "Add
|
|
new job" and enter the same command as you ran previously (e.g. `renovate [your/repo]`). Adjust the frequency to hourly if you prefer, then click Save.
|
|
|
|
You can run `heroku logs` to check execution logs. Consider adjusting the
|
|
scripts log level if you have problems (info -> verbose -> debug -> silly).
