Support scan buildSrc's Dependencies?

[logosmjt]

What would you like Renovate to be able to do?

buildSrc     
├── src    
│ └── main   
│ ─└── kotlin   
│ ──└── Dependencies.kt   
├── build.gradle.kts

There are many projects that manage dependencies in this way.
Renovate could support this way to scan?

If you have any ideas on how this should be implemented, please tell us here.

Scan Dependencies.kt and build.gradle.kts.

Is this a feature you are interested in implementing yourself?

Maybe

Hi there,

Help us by making a minimal reproduction repository.

Before we can start work on your issue we first need to know exactly what's causing the current behavior. A minimal reproduction helps us with this.

To get started, please read our guide on creating a minimal reproduction to understand what is needed.

We may close the issue if you (or someone else) have not provided a minimal reproduction within two weeks. If you need more time, or are stuck, please ask for help or more time in a comment.

Good luck,

The Renovate team

It sounds like something we might be able to add support for. Can you create a reproduction to begin with?

According to these two issues,
#4086
#5480
is it recommended to update fileMatch?

I migrated this small sample to buildSrc.

Also link #12397, #9410.

I added fileMatch to renovate.json like this:

"regexManagers": [
  {
    "fileMatch": [
      "(^|/)buildSrc/.*"
    ],
    "datasourceTemplate": "gradle"
  }
],

But renovate bot told me an syntax error: Each Regex Manager must contain a non-empty matchStrings array, how can I add the matchStrings for all deps under buildSrc?

This feature is not the right place to discuss regex manager howto's. Please raise a discussion instead, but I recommend you read more on regex manager first because I suspect you misunderstand it and shouldn't be using it for this
