Custom Filtering for Snyk CLI

snyk-filter takes the JSON outputted from the Snyk CLI, e.g. snyk test --json and applies custom filtering of the results, as well as options to fail your build.

This repository is not in active developemnt and critical bug fixes only will be considered.

How do I use it?

Install

npm i -g snyk-filter

Note about node-jq

snyk-filter uses the node-jq library, which requires that a jq binary is installed. This typically happens transparently via npm install -g, but on some systems JQ does not get properly installed locally. If you receive an error after installation regarding node-jq, then jq should be installed manually to avoid this error.

# install jq ahead of time (ubuntu example)
sudo apt-get install -y jq

# tell node-jq to skip trying to install it on its own
export NODE_JQ_SKIP_INSTALL_BINARY=true

# tell node-jq where the existing jq binary is
export JQ_PATH=$(which jq)

# finally, install snyk-filter (does not work with node version > 12)
sudo npm install -g

Usage

1. Implement your custom JQ filters in a .snyk-filter/snyk.yml file relative to your current working directory where you will be running snyk test from (see in sample-filters and tweak things from there - use JQPlay )

2. Then pipe your snyk test --json output into snyk-filter or use the -i argument to input a json file. Use the -f argument to point to the yml file containing your custom filters if you are not using the default location (.snyk-filter/snyk.yml).

3. Return code of snyk-filter will be 0 for pass (no issues) and 1 for fail (issues found)

Example with Snyk CLI (using .snyk-filter/snyk.yml by default)

snyk test --json | snyk-filter

Example with Snyk CLI and custom yml file location

snyk test --json | snyk-filter -f /path/to/example-cvss-9-or-above.yml

Example

snyk-filter -i snyk_results.json

Example with custom yml file location

snyk-filter -i snyk_results.json -f /path/to/example-high-upgradeable-vulns.yml

Options

--json to output json
