Package Exports

@pulumi/policy

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@pulumi/policy) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Pulumi policy framework

Status: beta release.

Define and manage policy for cloud resources deployed through for Pulumi.

Policy rules run during pulumi preview and pulumi up, asserting that cloud resource definitions comply with the policy immediately before they are created or updated.

During preview, every every rule is run on every resource, and policy violations are batched up into a final report. During the update, the first policy violation will halt the deployment.

Policy violations can have enforcement levels that are advisory, which results in a printed warning, or mandatory, which results in an error after pulumi preview or pulumi up complete.

Trying the policy framework

In this guide, we'll show you how to install the required packages, and take a brief tour of the Policy SDK.

Verify your version of the Pulumi CLI

pulumi version # should be > v1.0.0-beta.1

Build the AWS examples

cd sdk/nodejs/policy/examples/aws
yarn install

Run `pulumi up` with the policy pack

When you run pulumi up or pulumi preview with the --policy-pack argument, it will validate every resource you declare against the policies in the pack. preview will attempt to run all policies over all resource definitions, reporting as many policy violations as it can. During the update itself, any policy violation will cause the update to halt immediately, to protect resources

You might not get errors if you don't have any resources that violate policy! We'll get to that soon enough.

In the previous step, you built the AWS examples policy pack. Supply the path to that directory in place of the <path-to-aws-policies> argument below.

# In the directory of a Pulumi app. Make sure @pulumi/pulumi is `latest`!
yarn upgrade @pulumi/pulumi
# The `--policy-pack` flag is currently behind the `DEBUG` flag.
PULUMI_DEBUG_COMMANDS=true pulumi up --policy-pack=<path-to-aws-policies>

Write your first policy!

Let's write a policy that rejects unencrypted S3 buckets. The rule below uses typedRule(aws.s3.Bucket.isInstance, it => ...) to run the lambda it => ... only on S3 buckets. The rule itself uses the Node.js built-in assert.notStrictEqual to make sure the serverSideEncryptionConfiguration field is defined in the resource definition.

import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";
import { Policy, typedRule } from "@pulumi/policy";
import * as assert from "assert";

const disallowUnencrytpedS3 = {
    name: "disallow-unencrypted-s3",
    description: "Checks whether S3 buckets have encryption turned on.",
    enforcementLevel: "mandatory",
    rules: typedRule(aws.s3.Bucket.isInstance, it => {
        assert.notStrictEqual(it.serverSideEncryptionConfiguration, undefined);
    }),
}

Add disallowUnencryptedS3 to the policies field of the PolicyPack in index.ts.

When you run PULUMI_DEBUG_COMMANDS=true pulumi up --policy-pack=<path> on a stack with public S3 buckets, you'll get an error if they don't have encryption enabled.
