Hammurabi is an extensible CLI tool responsible for enforcing user-defined rules on a git repository.

Features

Hammurabi integrates well with both git and Github to make sure that the execution happens on a separate branch and the committed changes are pushed to the target repository. After pushing to the target repository, a pull request will be opened.

Hammurabi supports several operations (Rules) by default. These Rules can do

• file and directory operations like copy, move, create or delete

• manipulation of attributes like ownership or access permissions change

• file and directory manipulations

• piped rule execution (output of a rule is the input of the next rule)

• children rule execution (output of a rule is the input of the upcoming rules)

• creating files from Jinja2 templates

• send notification on git push

Supported file formats:

• plain text

• ini

• json

• yaml (basic, single document operations)

Upcoming file format support:

• toml

• hocon

Installation

Hammurabi can be installed by running pip install hammurabi and it requires Python 3.7.0+ to run. This is the preferred method to install Hammurabi, as it will always install the most recent stable release. If you don’t have pip installed, this Python installation guide can guide you through the process.

Installing extras

Hammurabi tries to be as tiny as its possible, hence some rules are requiring extra dependencies to be installed. Please check the documentation of the Rules to know which dependency is required to use the specific rule.

To install hammurabi with an extra package run pip install hammurabi[<EXTRA>], where <EXTRA> is the name of the extra option. To install multiple extra packages list the extra names separated by comma as described in pip’s examples section point number six.

Extra	Description
all	alias to install all the extras available
ini	needed for ini/cfg based rules
ujson	install if you need faster json manipulat
yaml	needed for yaml based rules
templating	needed for rules which are using templates
slack-notifications	needed for slack webhook notifications

Usage examples

In every case, make sure that you clone the target repository prior using Hammurabi. After cloning the repository, always set the current working directory to the target’s path. Hammurabi will not clone the target repository or change its execution directory.

Listing available laws

$ hammurabi get laws
- Gunicorn config set up properly

Get info about a law by its name

$ hammurabi get law "Gunicorn config set up properly"
Gunicorn config set up properly

Change the gunicorn configuration based on our learnings
described at: https://google.com/?q=gunicorn.

If the gunicorn configuration does not exist, create a
new one configuration file.

Get all registered (root) rules

$ hammurabi get rules
- Rule 1
- Rule 5

Get a rule by its name

$ hammurabi get rule "Rule 1"
Rule 1

Ensure that a file exists. If the file does not exists,
this :class:`hammurabi.rules.base.Rule` will create it.

Due to the file is already created by :func:`pre_task_hook`
there is no need to do anything just return the input parameter.

Describe a law by its name

$ hammurabi describe law "Gunicorn config set up properly"
Gunicorn config set up properly

Change the gunicorn configuration based on our learnings
described at: http://docs.gunicorn.org/en/latest/configure.html.

If the gunicorn configuration does not exist, create a
new one configuration file.

Rules:
--> Rule 1
--> Rule 2
--> Rule 3
--> Rule 4
--> Rule 5

Describe a rule by its name

$ hammurabi describe rule "Rule 1"
Rule 1

Ensure that a file exists. If the file does not exists,
this :class:`hammurabi.rules.base.Rule` will create it.

Due to the file is already created by :func:`pre_task_hook`

Chain:

Getting the execution order of laws and rules

$ hammurabi get order
- Gunicorn config set up properly
--> Rule 1
--> Rule 2
--> Rule 3
--> Rule 4
--> Rule 5

Custom Rules

Although the project aims to support as many general operations as it can, the need for adding custom rules may arise.

To extend Hammurabi with custom rules, you will need to inherit a class from Rule and define its abstract methods.

The following example will show you how to create and use a custom rule. For more reference please check how the existing rules are implemented.

# custom.py
import shutil
import logging
from hammurabi.mixins import GitMixin
from hammurabi.rules.base import Rule


class CustomOwnerChanged(Rule, GitMixin):
    """
    Change the ownership of a file or directory to <original user>:admin.
    """

    def __init__(self, name: str, path: Optional[Path] = None, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(name, path, **kwargs)

    def post_task_hook(self):
        self.git_add(self.param)

    def task(self) -> Path:
        # Since ``Rule`` is setting its 2nd parameter to ``self.param``,
        # we can use ``self.param`` to access the target file's path.
        logging.debug('Changing group of "%s" to admin', str(self.param))
        shutil.chown(self.param, group="admin")
        return self.param

Why Hammurabi?

Hammurabi was the sixth king in the Babylonian dynasty, which ruled in central Mesopotamia from c. 1894 to 1595 B.C.

The Code of Hammurabi was one of the earliest and most complete written legal codes and was proclaimed by the Babylonian king Hammurabi, who reigned from 1792 to 1750 B.C. Hammurabi expanded the city-state of Babylon along the Euphrates River to unite all of southern Mesopotamia. The Hammurabi code of laws, a collection of 282 rules, established standards for commercial interactions and set fines and punishments to meet the requirements of justice. Hammurabi’s Code was carved onto a massive, finger-shaped black stone stele (pillar) that was looted by invaders and finally rediscovered in 1901.
