• Home page

• Source code on Github

Configuration options

1. Name: This is Brainboard field to describe what this task is about.

2. Policy: the content of your policy in rego format.

   1. The content in this output is just an example. See examples below.

3. Extra environment variables: variables that you can define here that will be used as environment variables in the execution shell.

4. Ignore failure: if enabled, the execution of the following stage will be triggered even if the task fails.

5. Require approval: means that this task will not be executed until approved by people added in the approvers' list.

   • The task remains blocked until all approvers added in the list approve it.

   • When enabled, it allows you to add approvers to the list

     
   • The approver has to be Brainboard user

6. Decision: The decision you want the check to be evaluated against. In the format package_name/decision

   1. In this example, we want to fail the pipeline if the resources don't contain the tags in the list

   2. The decision is brainboard/deny

Naming convention

package brainboard

    r.type == "azurerm_storage_account"
    not startswith(r.change.after.name, "bb")
    
    msg := sprintf("%v must start with bb", [r.address])
}


deny contains msg if {

Mandatory tags

package brainboard

required_tags := ["Environment", "Owner"]

deny contains msg if {
	r := input.resource_changes[_]
	missing_tags := {tag | tag := required_tags[_]; not r.change.after.tags[tag]}

	msg = sprintf("Resource is missing required tags: %v (%v)", [r.address, missing_tags[_]])
}

Decision: brainboard/deny
