Optimize renovate image in renovate-scan pipeline

Question

Hi team,

I have a question regarding the use of the renovate/renovate:37.6-full image in our Renovate scan pipeline. Is it necessary to continue using this specific version?

Additionally, is it possible to update to the latest image and potentially use a lighter version to optimize performance and reduce resource usage?

I'm getting a docker exceeded memory

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,

Thanks for the update! I appreciate the team's efforts in releasing the new version and addressing the memory issues. I'll check out the guides if we encounter any further problems.

HI @Claudia Ballano Sanchez @Ben

We have released a new version of the renovate-scan pipe based on

renovate/renovate:38.19-full docker image:
script:
- pipe: atlassian/renovate-scan:0.6.0
variables:
CONFIG_FILE_PATH: '<your-config.yaml>'

There were no memory issues detected by our team.

But, if you have still struggled with, you could follow the next guides:

Hi @Claudia Ballano Sanchez

Our pipes team have confirmed that they are working toward updating to a later version (version 38) and this should be in the next release - they are also in the process of investigating the memory limit issues. I don't have an ETA for this release.

In terms of the image size, this should not impact on the performance of the pipe. Although, we have raised a feature request to use the slim version of the image - you can Watch this for future updates:
