# Dependency bots
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
It is considered best practice to regularly update dependencies, to avoid being exposed to
 | 
						|
vulnerabilities, limit incompatibilities between dependencies, and avoid complex upgrades when
 | 
						|
upgrading from a too old version. A variety of tools can help staying up-to-date by creating
 | 
						|
automated pull requests. Several of them support uv, or have work underway to support it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Renovate
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
uv is supported by [Renovate](https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `uv.lock` output
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Renovate uses the presence of a `uv.lock` file to determine that uv is used for managing
 | 
						|
dependencies, and will suggest upgrades to
 | 
						|
[project dependencies](../../concepts/projects/dependencies.md#project-dependencies),
 | 
						|
[optional dependencies](../../concepts/projects/dependencies.md#optional-dependencies) and
 | 
						|
[development dependencies](../../concepts/projects/dependencies.md#development-dependencies).
 | 
						|
Renovate will update both the `pyproject.toml` and `uv.lock` files.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The lockfile can also be refreshed on a regular basis (for instance to update transitive
 | 
						|
dependencies) by enabling the
 | 
						|
[`lockFileMaintenance`](https://docs.renovatebot.com/configuration-options/#lockfilemaintenance)
 | 
						|
option:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```jsx title="renovate.json5"
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
  $schema: "https://docs.renovatebot.com/renovate-schema.json",
 | 
						|
  lockFileMaintenance: {
 | 
						|
    enabled: true,
 | 
						|
  },
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Inline script metadata
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Renovate supports updating dependencies defined using
 | 
						|
[script inline metadata](../scripts.md/#declaring-script-dependencies).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Since it cannot automatically detect which Python files use script inline metadata, their locations
 | 
						|
need to be explicitly defined using
 | 
						|
[`fileMatch`](https://docs.renovatebot.com/configuration-options/#filematch), like so:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```jsx title="renovate.json5"
 | 
						|
{
 | 
						|
  $schema: "https://docs.renovatebot.com/renovate-schema.json",
 | 
						|
  pep723: {
 | 
						|
    fileMatch: [
 | 
						|
      "scripts/generate_docs\\.py",
 | 
						|
      "scripts/run_server\\.py",
 | 
						|
    ],
 | 
						|
  },
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Dependabot
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Support for uv is not yet available. Progress can be tracked at
 | 
						|
[dependabot/dependabot-core#10478](https://github.com/dependabot/dependabot-core/issues/10478).
