Oh no! I just started using #Docker for #SelfHosting, and already one of the two containers in running was deprecated: #Watchtower.

I don't want to setup GitOps with #RenovateBot just to have 0-click updates! 😐

RE: https://mastodon.social/@connel/115382187613159005

I fixed it! I had to mount the host's podman container storage directory in my #Gitea runner but I think I'm out of the woods.

I did look at Nix but now I've got a working build pipeline, I'm hoping I'll be able to build something really cool with #RenovateBot

1/5 Heya Fed, Hint of the day for the devs out there: I was heavily reliant on Dependabot to keep my project's software dependencies versions up to date (you are keeping your dependencies up to date, right?).

Some colleagues who are deeper into OSS told me to try Renovate, but I mostly dismissed it as just alt tech.

I should've known an alternative existed for #dependabot. 😅

#renovatebot is pretty interesting. You can run fairly quickly. And it supports #gitea and #forgejo. 😎

What I did in the last weeks (part 2):

All of my k3s clusters (and I have a few of them for $REASONS) are now running either #fluxCD or #argoCD. So everything #gitops now.

In general, I like the lightweightness of fluxCD, not having to run Redis and whatnot. But having a GUI is sometimes nice, even though the flux CLI is really easy to use and very intuitive.

And of course, #renovatebot is watching all repositories and sending merge requests to update things in the clusters. Nice!

I'm setting up #renovate for our internal #gitlab and I can see already how much I missed this tool and how useful it will be. Should have done this way earlier 😊
