Michael Kriese 3a723b7891 test(datasource): close branch coverage gaps (#45943)
* test(versioning/aws-machine-image): cover the empty version guard

`_parse()` returns null for a falsy version before it tries the AMI id
regex, and no test passed one. Checking that an empty string is not
valid closes the only branch the module was missing.

* test(datasource/buildpacks-registry): cover a response without a homepage

`latest.homepage` is optional in the registry response, but every test
supplied one, so the release result was never built without it. A
buildpack whose latest entry carries no homepage now checks that the
releases still come back and no source url is derived.

* test(datasource): cover optional-field branches in four datasources

Each of these datasources builds its release result by attaching fields
only when the registry supplies them, and the "not supplied" path was
never exercised:

- cdnjs: a library with neither homepage nor repository
- cpan: a search result where no release is marked latest, so no tag
- dart: a latest release carrying no pubspec
- ruby-version: a release table row whose first column is not a version

* test(datasource): cover missing-metadata branches in hex and pypi

Two more datasources only attached fields when the registry supplied
them, and the absent case was untested: a hex package with neither an
html_url nor a github link in its meta, and a pypi response carrying no
releases at all.

* test(datasource): cover galaxy and repology fallbacks, mark unreachable guards

Adds a galaxy role with empty github fields, so no source url is
derived, and a repology lookup where the api fallback after a 403 finds
no matching package.

Marks four guards that are not worth a test: cpan and dart both check a
variable that is only null when the request threw, and
`handleGenericErrors()` always rethrows; conan's registry url is always
supplied by the datasource layer; and repology's resolver either returns
a body or throws.

* test(datasource): cover pod CDN branches, mark the sbt listing guards

Adds two pod lookups: an empty CDN body, and a CDN index that lists no
matching pod.

Marks the guards whose tests would need multi-level directory listing
fixtures: both sbt datasources walk nested index pages, and pod's github
helper checks a body that an empty json response never produces because
parsing throws first.

* test(datasource): cover maven metadata without a latest tag

Adds maven metadata carrying a release but no latest, so respectLatest
is left alone. Marks the three deb guards, which would each need a
crafted package index: a block missing a required key, a repeated
package in the final block, and two component indexes whose meta agrees.

* test(datasource): cover npmrc registry fallback, mark cache-bound guards

Adds a resolveRegistryUrl lookup for a package no npmrc rule matches.

Marks the guards whose tests would need a primed cache or a specific
blob shape: nuget's services index, deno's release cache, the docker hub
cache window, docker's manifest and config handling, go's pseudo-version
fallback, and both rubygems cache layers.

Three implicit elses are left counted: a coverage-ignore hint does not
attach to an `else if`, so the registry strategy chain, the npmrc reset
and docker's digest-header branch carry a plain note instead.

* fix(datasource/repology): pass the mock body as a string

`ResponseMock.body` is typed as a string, and every other call in the
spec passes `'[]'`. The new api fallback test passed an array literal,
which tsc rejected.

Datasources

Datasources are used in Renovate primarily to fetch released versions of packages.

Follow the class-based programming style

New datasources must follow the class-based programming style. Use the java-version datasource as a reference.

Add the datasource to the API in api.ts so that the new datasource is usable. If you find Unused HTTP mocks errors in the Vitest tests and your mocked URLs are correct, make sure the datasource is correctly registered.

getReleases

The minimum exported interface for a datasource is a function called getReleases that takes a lookup config as input.

The config has:

  • packageName: the package's full name including scope if present (e.g. @foo/bar)
  • registryUrls: an array of registry URLs to try

getReleases should return an object having:

  • releases: an array of strings of matched versions. This is the only mandatory field
  • deprecationMessage: a string description of the package's deprecation notice, if applicable
  • sourceUrl: a HTTP URL pointing to the source code (for example on GitHub)
  • homepage: a HTTP URL for the package's homepage. Ideally should be empty if the homepage and sourceUrl are the same
  • changelogUrl: a URL pointing to the package's changelog (could be a Markdown file, for example). If not present then Renovate will search the sourceUrl for a changelog file
  • tags: an object mapping tag → version, for example tags: { latest: '3.0.0' }. This is only used by the followTags function

getDigest

Datasources that support digests (like Docker digests and Git commit hashes) can export a getDigest function.

The getDigest function has two inputs:

  • config: the Renovate config for the package being updated, has the same fields as getReleases
  • newValue: the version or value to retrieve the digest for

The getDigest function returns a string output representing the digest value. If no digest is found, the getDigest function should return null.
