The previous attempt (inline `# renovate:` comment in termix.yaml) silently
did nothing -- after merge + manual run, the dashboard's
`termix-system/termix.yaml (2)` was the resource count (Deployment +
Ingress), not detected updates. No PRs opened, no termix branches, no
queue entries anywhere.
Root cause: Renovate's `kubernetes` manager does NOT process inline
`# renovate:` comments. Those work for dockerfile/flux/helmfile/github-
actions/helm-values/etc., but kubernetes is missing from that list.
Correct fix: a `customManagers.regex` entry that extracts termix's image
directly with the right datasource/versioning/extractVersion set at
EXTRACTION time -- before any docker-version pre-check can reject the
prefixed tag. Plus a packageRule disabling the kubernetes manager for
termix so it doesn't silently skip the dep and clutter the dashboard.
Changes:
- admin-system/renovate.yaml:
* enabledManagers += "custom.regex"
* customManagers: termix.yaml regex extraction -> github-releases
datasource on Termix-SSH/Termix with `extractVersion=^release-(?<version>.+)$`
* packageRules: disable kubernetes manager for ghcr.io/lukegus/termix
- termix-system/termix.yaml: drop the useless inline comment, leave a
NOTE explaining where the actual config lives.
