Pre-Commit Hooks

Pre-Commit is a framework for managing and maintaining multi-language pre-commit hooks. This allows running Regal automatically whenever (and as the name implied before) a Rego file is about to be committed.

To use Regal with pre-commit, add this to your .pre-commit-config.yaml

yaml

- repo: https://github.com/open-policy-agent/regal
  rev: v0.7.0 # Use the ref you want to point at
  hooks:
    - id: regal-lint
  # -   id: ...
