Policy and Template Structure

• Policy Directory Name: This is the name of the Policy. Try to look at the other directories and follow the naming pattern if applicable.
• policy.rego: REGO code for the policy.
• policy.yaml: Policy CRD object that contains the spec of the policy.
• tests: This directory has:
  • Example yaml files that you can use to test the policies with scripts/test_policies binary.
  • REGO files to test the policies using OPA Testing Framework.

Standards File Format

id: weave.standards.<id> # weave standard id
name: <standard name>
description: <description text>
controls:
- id: weave.controls.<id> # weave control id
  description: <description text>
  name: <control name>

Testing Policies using OPA Testing Framework

Download it here

# test all policies and examples
opa test examples/ policies/ -v --ignore '*.yml','*.yaml','.md','.csv'

# test single policy
opa test policies/ControllerContainerRunningAsRoot -v --ignore '*.yml','*.yaml','.md','.csv'

Policy Management scripts

We use polctl management scripts to manage (test, automate and sync) policies, standards, etc...

Setup repo githooks

git config --local core.hooksPath .githooks/

This command sets the path for the repo hooks to .githooks directory so that it can be version-controlled and used by everyone using this repo.
