lockfile-lint
A CLI to lint a lockfile for security policies
About
A CLI tool to lint a lockfile for security policies
Install
npm install --save lockfile-lint
Usage
lockfile-lint
can be installed per a project scope, or globally and exposes a lockfile-lint
executable that should be practiced during builds, CIs, and general static code analysis procedures to ensure that lockfiles are kept up to date with pre-defined security and usage policies.
lockfile-lint --type <yarn|npm> --path <path-to-lockfile> --validate-https --allowed-hosts <host-to-match> --allowed-urls <urls-to-match>
Supported lockfiles:
- npm's
package-lock.json
andnpm-shrinkwrap.json
- yarn's
yarn.lock
Example
An example of running the linter with debug output for a yarn lockfile and asserting that all resources are using the official npm registry as source for packages:
DEBUG=* lockfile-lint --path yarn.lock --type yarn --allowed-hosts npm
Example 2: specify hostnames and enforce the use of HTTPS as a protocol
lockfile-lint --path yarn.lock --allowed-hosts registry.yarnpkg.com --validate-https
--type yarn
is ommitted since lockfile-lint can figure it out on it's own--allowed-hosts
explicitly set to match yarn's mirror host
Example 3: allow the lockfile to contain packages served over github and so need to specify github.com as a host as well as the git+https:
as a valid URI scheme
lockfile-lint --path yarn.lock --allowed-hosts yarn github.com --allowed-schemes "https:" "git+https:"
--allowed-hosts
explicitly set to match github.com as a host and specifiesyarn
as the alias for yarn's official mirror host--allowed-schemes
is used instead ofvalidate-https
and it explicitly allows bothhttps:
andgit+https:
as the HTTP Scheme for the github URL. Note that--allowed-schemes
and--validate-https
are mutually exclusive.
Example 4: allow the lockfile to contain a package which resolves to a specific URL specified by the --allowed-urls
option while all other packages must resolve to yarn as specified by --allowed-hosts
lockfile-lint --path yarn.lock --allowed-hosts yarn --allowed-urls https://github.com/lirantal/lockfile-lint#d30ce73a3e5977dede29450df1c79b09f02779b2
--allowed-hosts
allows packages from yarn only--allowed-urls
overridesallowed-hosts
and allows a specific Github URL to pass validation
CLI command options
command line argument | description | implemented |
---|---|---|
--path , -p |
path to the lockfile but you can also provide a glob matching pattern as long as it isn't expanded by a shell like bash or zsh. If that's the case, you can provide it as a string, for example: -p '/Users/lirantal/repos/**/package-lock.json' to match multiple lockfiles |
✅ |
--type , -t |
lockfile type, options are npm or yarn |
✅ |
--format , -f |
sets what type of report output is desired, one of [ pretty , plain ] with plain removing colors & status symbols from output |
✅ |
--validate-https , -s |
validates the use of HTTPS as protocol schema for all resources in the lockfile | ✅ |
--allowed-hosts , -a |
validates a list of allowed hosts to be used for all resources in the lockfile. Supported short-hands aliases are npm , yarn , and verdaccio which will match URLs https://registry.npmjs.org , https://registry.yarnpkg.com and https://registry.verdaccio.org respectively |
✅ |
--allowed-schemes , -o |
allowed URI schemes such as "https:", "http", "git+ssh:", or "git+https:" | ✅ |
--allowed-urls , -u |
allowed URLs (e.g. https://github.com/some-org/some-repo#some-hash ) |
✅ |
--empty-hostname , -e |
allow empty hostnames, or set to false if you wish for a stricter policy | ✅ |
--validate-package-names , -n |
validates that the resolved URL matches the package name | ✅ |
--validate-integrity , -i |
validates the integrity field is a sha512 hash | ✅ |
--allowed-package-name-aliases , -l |
allow package name aliases to be used by specifying package name and their alias as pairs (e.g: string-width-cjs:string-width ) |
✅ |
--integrity-exclude |
exclude packages from the --validate-integrity check |
✅ |
File-Based Configuration
Lockfile-lint uses cosmiconfig for configuration file support. This means you can configure the above options via (in order of precedence):
- A "lockfile-lint" key in your package.json file.
- A .lockfile-lintrc file, written in JSON or YAML, with optional extensions: .json/.yaml/.yml (without extension takes precedence).
- A .lockfile-lint.js or lockfile-lint.config.js file that exports an object.
- A .lockfile-lint.toml file, written in TOML (the .toml extension is required).
The configuration file will be resolved starting from the current working directory, and searching up the file tree until a config file is (or isn't) found. Command-line options take precedence over any file-based configuration.
The options accepted in the configuration file are the same as the options above in camelcase (e.g. "path", "allowedHosts").
