Secretlint has a Philosophy.

- Empower Users to Contribute
Reduce false-positive of linting
In our experience, false-positive is biggest issue of litting tools.
(Secretlint creator is same with textlint)
So, We are working that reduce false-positive in secretlint rules.
Secretlint adopt Opt-in instead of Opt-out.
It means that You can select a rule and introduce the rule by own.
However, Select everything is hard and We also provide recommened rule set.
Currently, Secretlint has implemented following rules.
- @secretlint/secretlint-rule-npm
- @secretlint/secretlint-rule-aws
- @secretlint/secretlint-rule-gcp
- @secretlint/secretlint-rule-privatekey
- @secretlint/secretlint-rule-basicauth
- @secretlint/secretlint-rule-slack
- @secretlint/secretlint-rule-secp256k1-privatekey
- @secretlint/secretlint-rule-no-k8s-kind-secret
Integration to developing workflow
Secretlint is Project Friendly tool.
It is easy to integrate your CI service like Circle CI, and GitHub ACtions.
If the Pull Request includes credentilas, CI is failed.
For more details, see following document.
Also, you can integrate Secretlint with Git pre-commit hook.
This integration prevent you to commit credential into your project.
GitHub can not remove sensitive data from a repository without contacting GitHub Support.
So, pre-commit hook is best way to prevent committing credentials
For more details, see following document.
Empower Users to Contribute
Secretlint adopt pluggable archtecture.
So, you can write own secretlint rule and use it.
Next development guide describe how to create secretelint rule.
This concept also effect secretlint core implementation.
@secretlint/core has not built-in rules.
Instead of it, We created @secretlint/secretlint-rule-preset-recommend as separated packages.
Next Secretlint
Secretlint is first stage yet.
We will improve secretlint for getting continuous security.
