dependabot-lein-runner

This action runs dependabot for Clojure (lein) projects using a fork of dependabot/dependabot-core that has support for lein.

The action executes the update.rb script using a trimmed down version of the Dockerfile from dependabot-core which contains only what is required to run updates on lein projects. The image is pushed to ghcr.io/carwow/dependabot-lein-runner.

It uses the following variables:

• token the github access token to use to both check the private repositories and create pull requests (may be the GitHub Actions token or a personal access token)
• registries any github packages maven repository urls for private packages (comma separated, default '')
• directory the directory to look for project.clj within (default '/')
• repository the repo to update in owner/repo format

Example daily workflow within for a single repo:

name: Daily Scheduled Bump
on:
  workflow_dispatch:
  schedule:
    - cron: '30 9 * * *'

jobs:
  update:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: carwow/dependabot-lein-runner@main
        with:
          token: ${{ github.token }}
          repository: ${{ github.repository }}
          directory: '/' # can be ommited
          registries: '' # can be ommited

Example workflow for multiple repos (must use a Personal Access Token in order to open PRs in repositories which are not the repository the action is running in):

name: Daily Scheduled Bump
on:
  workflow_dispatch:
  schedule:
    - cron: '30 9 * * *'

jobs:
  update:
    name: Update
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    strategy:
      fail-fast: false
      matrix:
        projects:
          - repository: carwow/dependabot-lein-runner
            directory: '/dummy'

    steps:
      - uses: carwow/dependabot-lein-runner@main
        with:
          token: ${{ github.token }}
          repository: ${{ matrix.projects.repository }}
          directory: ${{ matrix.projects.directory }}
