Allow users to auto-updated npm dependencies with RenovateBot
Problem to solve
Developers don't want to manually update packages, if there is a new, stable version of a package available. Ideally a bot would alert them when a package has been updated and automatically open an MR that installs the latest, stable version of their NPM package.
Intended users
- Delaney (Development Team Lead)
- Sasha (Software Developer)
- Devon (DevOps Engineer)
- Sidney (Systems Administrator)
Further details
Proposal
Integrate with RenovateBot for npm packages that will allow the user to auto update npm packages. For the MVC we can start with a webhook or simply by letting users know they can add @renovatebot to their project and start updating dependencies.
