build(deps): Hold logback on the 1.5 line - #140
Merged
Conversation
logback 1.6.0 removed ch.qos.logback.classic.PatternLayout.DEFAULT_CONVERTER_MAP.
Dropwizard 5's dropwizard-request-logging reads that field in a static
initializer, so with logback 1.6.1 on the classpath every Dropwizard app dies at
boot:
java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: Class ch.qos.logback.classic.PatternLayout
does not have member field 'java.util.Map DEFAULT_CONVERTER_MAP'
at io.dropwizard.request.logging.layout.LogbackAccessRequestLayout.<clinit>
That is what fails dependabot PR #138 — 16 integration tests in
:pk-auth-dropwizard plus the dropwizard-demo e2e run. Dropwizard 5.0.2 is the
newest release and still resolves logback 1.5.x, so ignore minor and major
logback updates until Dropwizard supports 1.6. Patch updates on 1.5.x still flow.
The minor entry matters: 1.5 -> 1.6 is a semver-minor bump, so a major-only
ignore (as used for Micronaut) would not have held the line.

Unblocks #138, which fails on its
logback 1.5.38 → 1.6.1bump.Why
logback 1.6.0 removed
ch.qos.logback.classic.PatternLayout.DEFAULT_CONVERTER_MAP. Dropwizard 5'sdropwizard-request-loggingreads that field in a static initializer, so with 1.6.1 on the classpath every Dropwizard app dies at boot:On #138 that took out 16 integration tests in
:pk-auth-dropwizard(PkAuthBundleIntegrationTest,PkAuthBundleAltFlowsIntegrationTest— everything that boots the app) and thee2e (dropwizard-demo)job, where:examples:dropwizard-demo:runfailed at startup with the same trace.Dropwizard 5.0.2 resolves
logback-classic:1.5.33; the catalog force-upgrades the classpath to 1.6.1 (dependencyInsightshows1.5.33 -> 1.6.1). Dropwizard 5.0.2 is the newest release on Maven Central, so there is no upgrade path out of the conflict yet.Change
One ignore entry in
.github/dependabot.ymlforch.qos.logback:*, covering minor and major updates — 1.5 → 1.6 is a semver-minor bump, so the major-only form used for Micronaut would not hold the line. Patch updates on 1.5.x still flow. Remove this once Dropwizard ships logback 1.6 support.Verification
Reproduced on the #138 branch locally, then reverted only
logbackto 1.5.38 —./gradlew :pk-auth-dropwizard:testgoes BUILD SUCCESSFUL, confirming the other two bumps in that PR (spotless 8.9.0, aws-sdk 2.49.5) are fine.Once this merges,
