[anderseknert]

Regal v0.14.0 just released! 🎉 The latest edition of everyone’s favorite Rego linter features two new rules, a new output format, and many improvements and fixes.

New rules

• boolean-assignment to suggest placing a boolean expression in the rule body rather than assigning the result of the expression to the rule
• redundant-existence-check to flag locations where existence/undefined checks are redundant

New output format

• Regal now supports the SARIF output format, allowing it to integrate with any tool processing SARIF reports

Improvements

• The prefer-some-in-iteration rule will by default no longer flag iteration where a sub-attribute is used, like input[_].item
• The use-in-operator rule has been extended to include more types of items, leading to better discovery of locations where in should be used
• Remove replace directive in go.mod that made hard to integrate Regal as a library
• The project now uses markdownlint to ensure consistent formatting of its documentation
• The Go API now allows reading custom rules from an fs.FS filesystem

Bugs fixed

• Fix false positive in the unused-return-value rule, which could be - triggered when a function was called in an argument provided to the print built-in
• Fix false positive in prefer-package-imports that would only be triggered when linting custom rules
