This datasource returns the database engine versions available for use on [AWS RDS](https://aws.amazon.com/rds/) via the AWS API.
Generally speaking, all publicly released database versions are available for use on RDS.
However, new versions may not be available on RDS for a few weeks or months after their release while AWS tests them.
In addition, AWS may pull existing versions if serious problems arise during their use.

!!! warning
The default versioning of the `aws-rds` datasource is _not_ compatible with [AWS Aurora](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/CHAP_AuroraOverview.html)!
If you use AWS Aurora, you must set your own custom versioning.
Scroll down to see an example.
### AWS API configuration
Since the datasource uses the AWS SDK for JavaScript, you can configure it like other AWS Tools.
You can use common AWS configuration options, for example:
- Set the region via the `AWS_REGION` environment variable or your `~/.aws/config` file
- Provide credentials via the `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` environment variables or your `~/.aws/credentials` file
- Select the profile to use via `AWS_PROFILE` environment variable
Read the [AWS Developer Guide - Configuring the SDK for JavaScript](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-javascript/v3/developer-guide/configuring-the-jssdk.html) for more information on these configuration options.
```json title="Minimal IAM privileges needed for this datasource"
{
"Sid": "AllowDBEngineVersionLookup",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": ["rds:DescribeDBEngineVersions"],
"Resource": "*"
}
```
Read the [AWS RDS IAM reference](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/service-authorization/latest/reference/list_amazonrds.html) for more information.
### Usage
Because Renovate has no manager for the AWS RDS datasource, you need to help Renovate by configuring the custom manager to identify the RDS dependencies you want updated.
When configuring the custom manager, you have to pass a [filter](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaScriptSDK/v3/latest/clients/client-rds/interfaces/describedbengineversionscommandinput.html#filters) as minified JSON as the `packageName`.
For example:
```yaml
# Getting the latest supported MySQL 5.7 version from RDS as a filter would look like:
[
{
"Name": "engine",
"Values": [ "mysql" ]
},
{
"Name": "engine-version",
"Values": [ "5.7" ]
}
]
# In order to use it with this datasource, you have to minify it:
[{"Name":"engine","Values":["mysql"]},{"Name":"engine-version","Values":["5.7"]}]
```
```json title="Using a custom manager to configure this datasource"
{
"customManagers": [
{
"customType": "regex",
"fileMatch": ["\\.yaml$"],
"matchStrings": [
".*rdsFilter=(?<lookupName>.+?)[ ]*\n[ ]*(?<depName>[a-zA-Z0-9-_:]*)[ ]*?:[ ]*?[\"|']?(?<currentValue>[.\\d]+)[\"|']?.*"
],
"datasourceTemplate": "aws-rds"
}
]
}
```
The configuration above matches every YAML file, and recognizes these lines:
```yaml
spec:
# rdsFilter=[{"Name":"engine","Values":["mysql"]},{"Name":"engine-version","Values":["5.7"]}]
engineVersion: 5.7.34
```
#### Using Terraform, `aws-rds` datasource and Aurora MySQL
Here is the Renovate configuration to use Terraform, `aws-rds` and Aurora MySQL:
```json
{
"customManagers": [
{
"description": "Update RDS",
"customType": "regex",
"fileMatch": [".+\\.tf$"],
"matchStrings": [
"\\s*#\\s*renovate:\\s*rdsFilter=(?<lookupName>.+?) depName=(?<depName>.*) versioning=(?<versioning>.*)\\s*.*_version\\s*=\\s*\"(?<currentValue>.*)\""
],
"datasourceTemplate": "aws-rds"
}
]
}
```
The above configuration is an example of updating an AWS RDS version inside a Terraform file, using a custom manager.
```
# renovate:rdsFilter=[{"Name":"engine","Values":["aurora-mysql"]},{"Name":"engine-version","Values":["8.0"]}] depName=aurora-mysql versioning=loose
engine_version = "8.0.mysql_aurora.3.05.2"
```
