chore(ci): set up Renovate dependency automation
Renovate runs as a daily Gitea Actions cron (03:00 UTC, on
self-hosted runners) and opens PRs against main for dependency
updates. Picked daily-at-3am specifically so Monday's run sits
inside Renovate's default `lockFileMaintenance.schedule` ("before
4am on Monday") and triggers the weekly lockfile refresh in passing.
The workflow only handles invocation + Gitea-platform plumbing.
Bot behaviour (groupings, labels, Conventional Commits, OSV.dev
vulnerability source) lives in /renovate.json so it can evolve
without redeploying the workflow.
Groups defined: Angular, Nx, NestJS, Prisma (incl. nestjs-prisma),
Vitest, TypeScript tooling, ESLint, SWC, Tailwind. Standalone
packages get individual PRs.
Bot identity: a dedicated `apf-portal-bot` Gitea user authenticates
with a PAT stored as the RENOVATE_TOKEN repo secret. The full
onboarding procedure (user creation, scopes, secret) is documented
in docs/development.md → "Dependency updates (Renovate)".
The roadmap entry for Renovate is removed from §8 since the section
now exists.

## 5. Conventional commit cycle
|

## 5. Dependency updates (Renovate)
|
||||
|
||||
[Renovate](https://docs.renovatebot.com/) runs as a scheduled workflow ([`.gitea/workflows/renovate.yml`](../.gitea/workflows/renovate.yml)) and opens PRs against `main` for dependency updates. Daily at 03:00 UTC, plus on-demand via `workflow_dispatch`.
|
||||
|
||||
Behaviour is controlled by [`renovate.json`](../renovate.json) at the repo root: groupings (Angular, Nx, NestJS, Prisma, Vitest, TypeScript tooling, ESLint, SWC, Tailwind), Conventional-Commits-compatible commit messages (`chore(deps): …` / `fix(deps): …` for vulnerability fixes), weekly lockfile maintenance, OSV.dev as the vulnerability data source.
|
||||
|
||||
### One-time bot onboarding
|
||||
|
||||
Renovate authenticates as a dedicated bot user. Setup is manual on Gitea — done once per Gitea instance, then the workflow runs unattended.
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Create a bot user.** Site Administration → Users → Create User. Suggested name: `apf-portal-bot`. Strong password, mark as **non-admin** (least privilege).
|
||||
2. **Add the bot as a collaborator** on this repo with **Write** access (Settings → Collaborators). Without write, Renovate can't push branches.
|
||||
3. **Generate a PAT for the bot.** Sign in as the bot, then User Settings → Applications → Generate New Token. Scopes needed: read/write `repository`, read/write `issue`, read `user`. Avoid `admin`.
|
||||
4. **Store the PAT as a repo secret.** Settings → Actions → Secrets → New Secret. Name: `RENOVATE_TOKEN`. Value: the token from step 3.
|
||||
5. **Sign out and forget the token locally.** It is now only retrievable via the secret store.
|
||||
|
||||
To **rotate** the PAT: regenerate at step 3, update the secret at step 4. The schedule keeps running unattended with the new token.
|
||||
|
||||
### Triggering manually
|
||||
|
||||
Repo → Actions → "Renovate" workflow → Run workflow. Useful when you've just changed `renovate.json` and want the next pass to happen immediately rather than wait for the next 03:00 UTC tick.
|
||||
|
||||
### Reviewing Renovate PRs
|
||||
|
||||
- Each Renovate PR is gated by the same CI as a human PR — `check`, `scan`, `commits`, `perf`, `a11y`. Don't merge until all are green.
|
||||
- The "Renovate Dependency Dashboard" issue (auto-created on first run) lists every pending update grouped by status. Use it to triage which PRs to expedite.
|
||||
- For a major bump that introduces breaking changes, **don't reflexively merge**: read the changelog, then either accept the work or close the PR with a "rejected" label. Renovate respects that label and won't keep re-opening the same major.
|
||||
- **Adding or removing** a dependency belongs in a feature PR, not in Renovate's scope. Renovate only updates _versions_ of existing deps.
