Azure DevOps setup	How to setup Renovate for Azure DevOps

Azure DevOps setup

This document explains how to setup Renovate for use on Azure DevOps.

Setting up a new pipeline

Create a brand new pipeline within Azure DevOps, and select your source:

Then select your repository.

Within Configure your pipeline select: Starter pipeline

Replace all content in the starter pipeline with:

schedules:
  - cron: '0 3 * * *'
    displayName: 'Every day at 3am'
    branches:
      include: [main]
    always: true

trigger: none

pool:
  vmImage: ubuntu-latest

steps:
  - task: npmAuthenticate@0
    inputs:
      workingFile: .npmrc

  - bash: |
      git config --global user.email 'bot@renovateapp.com'
      git config --global user.name 'Renovate Bot'
      npx --userconfig .npmrc renovate      
    env:
      TOKEN: $(System.AccessToken)

Create a .npmrc file

Create a .npmrc file in your repository:

registry=https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/YOUR-ORG/_packaging/YOUR-FEED/npm/registry/
always-auth=true

For the registry key, replace YOUR-ORG with your Azure DevOps organization and YOUR-FEED with your Azure Artifacts feed.

Create a config.js file

Create a config.js file in your repository:

module.exports = {
  platform: 'azure',
  endpoint: 'https://dev.azure.com/YOUR-ORG/',
  token: process.env.TOKEN,
  hostRules: [
    {
      hostType: 'npm',
      matchHost: 'pkgs.dev.azure.com',
      username: 'apikey',
      password: process.env.TOKEN,
    },
  ],
  repositories: ['YOUR-PROJECT/YOUR-REPO'],
};

For the endpoint key, replace YOUR-ORG with your Azure DevOps organization. For the repositories key, replace YOUR-PROJECT/YOUR-REPO with your Azure DevOps project and repository.

Yarn users

To do a successful yarn install you need to match the URL of the registry fully. Use the matchHost config option to specify the full path to the registry.

module.exports = {
  platform: 'azure',
  endpoint: 'https://myorg.visualstudio.com/',
  token: process.env.TOKEN,
  hostRules: [
    {
      matchHost:
        'https://myorg.pkgs.visualstudio.com/_packaging/myorg/npm/registry/',
      token: process.env.TOKEN,
      hostType: 'npm',
    },
    {
      matchHost: 'github.com',
      token: process.env.GITHUB_COM_TOKEN,
    },
  ],
  repositories: ['YOUR-PROJECT/YOUR-REPO'],
};

Put this in your repository's .npmrc file:

registry=https://myorg.pkgs.visualstudio.com/_packaging/myorg/npm/registry/
always-auth=true

Add renovate.json file

Additionally, you can create a renovate.json file (which holds the Renovate configuration) in the root of the repository you want to update. Read more about the Renovate configuration options

Using a single pipeline to update multiple repositories

If you want to use a single Renovate pipeline to update multiple repositories you must take the following steps.

Add the names of the repositories to config.js. Make sure that the "Project Collection Build Service (YOUR-PROJECT)" user has the following permissions on the repositories:

• Contribute
• Contribute to pull requests
• Create branch
