Keeping exporter versions up-to-date?

[saz]

Right now, some exporters (e.g. node_exporter, memcached_exporter) are pretty old.

Maybe it's possible to create a task to check for newer versions? Or is there a better way to keep it updated?

This could be archived by using Renovate Bot (using regex manager) or maybe Dependabot to automatically crate PR if new versions of dependencies are released.

I have a good idea how to do that with renovate, how would you do that with dependabot @roock ?

[roock]

@TheMeier sorry, I don't know how this could be implemented with dependabot, I just wanted to express, from what I know about dependabot, it might be possible that this could also be implemented with dependabot I usually use renovate bot for dependency management.

Looks like as if @pccibot is taking care of that now.

[TheMeier]

Well I am trying with renovate and @pccibot. There is still a couple of open issues though. Most of them might actually lead to deprecations.
However I think the major point of this issue is addressed now. Do you agree @saz ?

Looks good to me! Thanks for the work, I'll close this issue
