Resolves #764 .
This PR adds a macro to the policy files, namely
#rel()
which goes around a string and re-interprets it as a path relative to the parent of the policy file. This way, the policy file stored in./config
can refer to the other files in the folder just by name, such asorg-file #rel("Orgs.kdl")
.This is necessary to fix the bug encountered in #752 . Turns out, until now probably most of our docker and binary releases would not "just work" for new people.
This PR does not address providing the
#rel()
functionality to config files (Hipcheck.toml
), doing so is a lot larger of a lift. So going forward, using the default config file will still not work out of the box, but we plan to deprecate config files soon anyway.@alilleybrinker I would be in favor of getting this PR and #751 merged in and releasing a
hipcheck-v3.9.1
so we have a working latest version prior to3.10
release date.
