I created a GitHub app to allow us to run renovate on this repo in GitHub Actions. "Creating an app" sounds a little deceiving. There's no code involved in creating a GitHub app. The creation is all driven through the GitHub UI. A private key associated to that app allows you to interact with the GitHub REST API as that app.
I tested the token works properly by running the script in this PR locally (
./ci/fetch-app-token.sh app-id install-id privkey.pem
) and set that token asRENOVATE_TOKEN
. It created the PR #367
