metadata-json-lint

License Test codecov Release RubyGem Version RubyGem Downloads

The metadata-json-lint tool validates and lints metadata.json files in Puppet modules against style guidelines from the Puppet Forge module metadata recommendations.

Compatibility

metadata-json-lint is tested on Ruby 2.7 to 3.3. The the authoritative source, check the required_ruby_version attribute in the gemspec file.

Installation

via gem command:

gem install metadata-json-lint

via Gemfile:

gem 'metadata-json-lint'

Usage

Testing with metadata-json-lint

On the command line, run metadata-json-lint with the path of your metadata.json file:

metadata-json-lint /path/to/metadata.json

Testing with metadata-json-lint as a Rake task

If you are already using puppet_spec_helper, the 'validate' task already includes metadata-json-lint.

You can also integrate metadata-json-lint checks into your tests using the Rake task. Add require 'metadata-json-lint/rake_task' to your Rakefile, and then run:

rake metadata_lint

To set options for the Rake task, include them when you define the task:

require 'metadata_json_lint'
task :metadata_lint do
  MetadataJsonLint.parse('metadata.json') do |options|
      options.strict_license = false
  end
end

Alternatively, set the option after requiring the Rake task:

require 'metadata-json-lint/rake_task'
MetadataJsonLint.options.strict_license = false

Options

  • --[no-]strict-dependencies: Whether to fail if module version dependencies are open-ended. Defaults to false.
  • --[no-]strict-license: Whether to fail on strict license check. Defaults to true.
  • --[no-]fail-on-warnings: Whether to fail on warnings. Defaults to true.
  • --[no-]strict-puppet-version: Whether to fail if Puppet version requirements are open-ended or no longer supported. Defaults to false.

Generated log placed in ~/metadata-json-lint/CHANGELOG.md

  • Check the diff for CHANGELOG.md. Does it contain a breaking change but the new version is only a minor bump? Does the new release only contains bug fixes? Adjust the version properly while honouring semantic versioning. If required, regenerate the CHANGELOG.md. Afterwards submit it as a PR.

  • If it gets approved, merge the PR, create a git tag on that and push it.
