Using profiles with kitchen-inspec about kitchen-inspec

[chris-rock]

@benjamink Thanks for reporting. The reason for that is, that profile inheritance is not supported in kitchen-inspec yet, but it should. We will add this feature. In the meantime, I recommend to test via inspec directly.

[jayhendren]

I don't have an example ready, but it's pretty straightforward to explain. kitchen-inspec expects a profile to live in test/integration/$suite_name/inspec. However, when including a profile from an inspec.yml file, then inspec expects the included profile to live in the top-level directory of the repo/tarball/whatever. Therefore I am unable to write a profile that can be both run by kitchen-inspec and exported for inclusion in other profiles.

[jorhett]

Now that #75 is merged, is this issue resolved @benjamink ?

Running test directly in inspec

Running inspec works, becuase we point it into the profile directly, although looks like it really does not care about --profiles-path variable at all, because we point into profile and it has path: ../../xstrema-tools in dependencies (so i could add --profiles-path /dev/null and it still works):

@nvtkaszpir I looks like this is the same error as #101

[nvtkaszpir]

I was wondering if to merge them, but so far I decided to split it.

#101 should handle showing more user friendly message about missing suites/profiles - it's more like kitchen suites do not match inspec suites.

#66 deals with profiles in general, where kitchen-inspec is unable to find dependencies within inspec profiles.

You can get workaround #66 with not using profiles, but if you got bad suites/platforms then you will hit #101

[chris-rock]

We are just finalizing the dependency management in InSpec, once its ready, it will be available in kitchen-inspec as well. This should cover this issue.
For #101 we should output an error, once the transport is not supported.

[nvtkaszpir]

OK, I understand it, right now kitchen-inspect + inspect profiles are not compatible. For now the only workaround is to use multiple tests within suite, and avoiding inspec profiles in tests within suite.

[chris-rock]

@nvtkaszpir You can use InSpec profiles, only the dependency feature is not available yet

[nvtkaszpir]

Ah, that explains it :)

[chris-rock]

It should work, once you remove the depends from inspec.yml

[nvtkaszpir]

Not really, the Failed to complete #verify action: [undefined method list' for {}:Hash]` persists.

[chris-rock]

Which version of inspec and kitchen-inspec are you using?

[nvtkaszpir]

Test Kitchen version 1.11.1
inspec version 0.32.0
kitchen-inspec (0.15.0)

[chris-rock]

is the problem also happening if you use the example profile from inspec? https://github.com/chef/inspec/tree/master/examples/profile

[nvtkaszpir]

using chef/inspec/tree/master/examples/profile directly works.

kitchen.yml seciton:

      inspec_tests:
        - test/integration/profile

but if I take another profile (lets name it steve) which has that profile as include:

include_controls 'profile'do
end

and will change in kitchen.yml

      inspec_tests:
        - test/integration/steve

then it dies with error message

here is a package you may want to test:
http://b.hlds.pl/inspec/test-kitchen-inspec-issues.zip

[chris-rock]

include_controls is part of the dependency management. The profile need to be available and kitchen inspec does not support the latest features yet. We'll add this feature, once its marked as stable. Can you work around that for now and use two profiles without dependency management?

[chris-rock]

I let you know, once this feature is available in kitchen-inspec so that you could try it.

[nvtkaszpir]

ok, so far I can work without dependency.

[nvtkaszpir]

btw, but it worked before inspec 0.32.0, I know cause I had working kitchen.yml files for aws ;)

[chris-rock]

okay, good to know. Can you provide the simplest example that breaks it. I'd like to add this to our inspec integration tests

[nvtkaszpir]

#66 (comment) see at the bottom of the post, unless you need something more?

[jayhendren]

Has there been any further movement on this issue?

[chris-rock]

This should work as expected and has been demonstrated at http://grdnr.io/inspec-and-chef-compliance-as-code/. Sample code is available here as https://github.com/chris-rock/acme-inspec-profile

[jayhendren]

Ok, why is this issue still open, then?

I am unable to write a repository that both runs an Inspec profile via kitchen and exports that profile so it can be included by other profiles in other repositories, and I assumed that was in scope of this issue. I can open a new issue if that is not the case.

[chris-rock]

@Poohblah Do you have your case somewhere open source? Or a gist where we can see that error?

[adamleff]

The ability to have a profile embedded in a cookbook (or other directory structure) exported for inclusion in other profiles as a dependency is not supported, with the exception of the path fetcher and providing a path to the directory where the profile lives. This is obviously difficult to determine depending on how the profile is fetched initially.

The ability to supply a git repository where the profile is not the only contents and not at the top-level of the repo would be a feature enhancement to InSpec itself. If this feature is needed, please feel free to log an issue at chef/inspec. Thank you!
