ec fetch policy

Fetch policy rules from a git repository or other source== Synopsis

Fetch policy rules (rego files) from a git repository or other source.

Each policy source will be downloaded into a separate unique directory inside the "policy" directory under the destination directory specified. The destination directory is either an automatically generated temporary work dir if --work-dir is set, the directory specified with the --dest flag, or the current directory if neither flag is specified.

This command is based on 'conftest pull' so you can refer to the conftest pull documentation for more usage examples and for details on the different types of supported source URLs.

Note that this command is not typically required to verify the Enterprise Contract. It has been made available for troubleshooting and debugging purposes.

ec fetch policy --source <source-url> --data-source <source-url> [flags]

Examples

Fetching policies from multiple sources to a specific directory:

 ec fetch policy --dest fetched-policies \
--source github.com/enterprise-contract/ec-policies//policy/lib \
--source github.com/enterprise-contract/ec-policies//policy/release

Fetching policies and data from multiple sources to the current directory:

 ec fetch policy \
--source github.com/enterprise-contract/ec-policies//policy/lib \
--source github.com/enterprise-contract/ec-policies//policy/release \
--data-source git::https://github.com/enterprise-contract/ec-policies//example/data

Fetching policies from multiple sources to an automatically generated temporary work directory:

 ec fetch policy --work-dir \
--source github.com/enterprise-contract/ec-policies//policy/lib \
--source github.com/enterprise-contract/ec-policies//policy/release

Different style url formats are supported. In this example "policy" is treated as a subdirectory even without the go-getter style // delimiter:

ec fetch policy --source https://github.com/enterprise-contract/ec-policies/policy

Fetching policies from an OPA bundle (OCI image):

ec fetch policy --source quay.io/enterprise-contract/ec-release-policy:latest

Notes:

  • The --dest flag will be ignored if --work-dir is set

  • Adding a protocol prefix such as 'git::' to the source url forces it to be treated as a go-getter style url.
