Prerequisites
- Dependabot is installed and enabled.
- GitHub Actions is enabled and in use.
Adding self-hosted runners for Dependabot updates
- Provision self-hosted runners, at the repository or organization level. For more information, see 自托管运行程序 and 添加自托管的运行器.
- Configure your environment and runners to meet the requirements for Dependabot. See Requirements for using Dependabot with self-hosted runners.
- If you are configuring self-hosted runners for your organization, you can create and assign a custom label for your runners. Otherwise, if you are configuring self-hosted runners for a standalone repository, you need to apply the
dependabotlabel. See 将标签与自托管运行程序结合使用. - Optionally, enable workflows triggered by Dependabot to use more than read-only permissions and to have access to any secrets that are normally available. For more information, see 对 GitHub Actions 上的 Dependabot 进行故障排除.
Enabling self-hosted runners for Dependabot updates
Once you have configured self-hosted runners for Dependabot updates, you can enable or disable Dependabot updates on self-hosted runners at the organization or repository level.
注意
Disabling and re-enabling the "Dependabot on self-hosted runners" setting does not trigger a new Dependabot run.
