butane: validate local files used as ignition configs - #2283
Conversation
Local files referenced via ignition.config.merge or ignition.config.replace
were never validated as Ignition configs. translateResource built a synthetic
path (path.New("yaml","local") -> "$.local") and guarded validation with
strings.HasPrefix(c.String(), "$.ignition.config"), which is always false, so
an invalid local ignition config was silently embedded without any error.
Move the validation into translateIgnition, where the real context path is
available, and validate the merge list and replace resource there. This only
affects ignition.config resources, so file append/contents local files are
left untouched.
Fixes coreos#2280

Cover the replace and v0_7 validation paths.
This test assigns Local only to IgnitionConfig.Merge. It does not execute the separate IgnitionConfig.Replace.Local branch. Add isolated invalid-local cases for replace and the v0_7 translation path.

@deepak0x , once I get through lifting and shifting everything from butane into the ignition repo I will circle back on this PR. Thank you for adding this so quickly :)! |

Local files referenced via

translateResourcebuilt a synthetic pathpath.New("yaml", "local")whoseString()is$.local, then guarded the validation withstrings.HasPrefix(c.String(), "$.ignition.config"). That condition is always false, so theValidateIgnitionConfigcall was dead code and never executed.Fix
Move the validation into
translateIgnition, where the real context path is available. The merge list and the replace resource are validated there when their source is a local file. This keeps validation scoped toignition.configresources only, so fileappend/contentslocal files are unaffected.The change is applied to both
butane/base/v0_7andbutane/base/v0_8_exp(the issue lists both).Test
Added
TestTranslateResourceLocalIgnitionValidationinbutane/base/v0_8_exp/translate_test.go, which references a local file containing an invalid ignition config viaignition.config.mergeand asserts that translation now reports a validation error. Before the fix the test fails (no error is reported); after the fix it passes.Full
