dir_exist Rule Block

The dir_exist rule block in the grept tool is used to enforce that a certain directory exists within the repository.

Attributes

• dir: The path of the directory that should exist.
• fail_on_exist: Set this attribute to true will fail the check once a directory is found. Defaults to false.

Exported Attributes

• id: The ID of the rule.

Example

Here's an example of how to use the dir_exist rule block in your configuration file:

rule "dir_exist" "example" {
  dir = "/path/to/dir"
}

This will enforce that the directory at /path/to/dir exists in the repository. If it doesn't, the rule will fail and the error message "The directory /path/to/dir must exist" will be displayed. The ID of the rule will be automatically generated.

rule "dir_exist" "example" {
  dir           = "/path/to/dir"
  fail_on_exist = true
}

This will enforce that the directory at /path/to/dir not exist in the repository. If it does, the rule will fail.
