ALIGN Linter

A linter for validating ALIGN parser files. The linter checks for:

• Valid ALIGN commands
• Valid field paths according to the schema
• Valid enum values
• Type compatibility for conversions

Usage

Basic usage:

align-lint path/to/file.conf --schema path/to/schema.json

Lint multiple files:

align-lint path/to/*.conf --schema path/to/schema.json

Options:

• --schema: Path to JSON schema file (required)
• --verbose, -v: Enable verbose output

GitHub Action

Add this to your repository's workflow file (e.g., .github/workflows/align-lint.yml):

name: ALIGN Linter

on:
  push:
    paths:
      - '**.conf'
  pull_request:
    paths:
      - '**.conf'

jobs:
  lint:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      
      - name: Set up Python
        uses: actions/setup-python@v5
        with:
          python-version: '3.12'
          
      - name: Install Poetry
        run: |
          pipx install poetry
          
      - name: Install dependencies
        run: |
          poetry install appomni-align-tools

      - name: Run ALIGN linter
        env:
          SCHEMA_PATH: ${{ inputs.schema-path || 'schemas/ACES.json' }}
        run: |
          poetry run align-lint $(find . -name "*.conf") --schema "$SCHEMA_PATH"

Supported Commands

The linter validates the following ALIGN commands:

• append
• copy
• convert
• convert_nested
• date
• dedupe
• del
• from_json
• http
• parse_ip
• parse_sql
• parse_user_agent
• regex_capture
• rename
• set
• split
• to_json
• translate

Development

Setup

# Install dependencies
poetry install

# Run tests
pytest tests/

Supporting Changes to Align

Generate new Lexer, Listener, and Parser via ANTLR and push generated files into align folder.

antlr4 -Dlanguage=Python3 -o align Align.g4

Adding New Validations

The linter can be extended by adding new validation methods to the AlignParserLinter class in linter.py.

GitHub Annotations

When used in GitHub Actions, the linter will create annotations in pull requests for any issues found, showing:

• The specific line and column where the issue was found
• A description of the error
• The file containing the error

This makes it easy to spot and fix issues directly in the PR interface.
