pip-audit VS husky

Next up is making sure, none of the dependencies used throughout the project brings with it any already identified security issue. The makefile target audit, invokes the handy tool pip-audit.

Here is my "one true" Makefile for Python projects[1]. The skeleton gets tweaked slightly each time, but it's served me well for 4+ years.

Why use this over the established https://pypi.org/project/pip-audit/ ?

If it's pure Python, the only packaging file you need is `pyproject.toml`. You can fill that file with packaging metadata per PEP 518 and PEP 621, including using modern build tooling like flit[1] for the build backend and build[2] for the frontend.

With that, you entire package build (for all distribution types) should be reducible to `python -m build`. Here's an example of a full project doing everything with just `pyproject.toml`[3] (FD: my project).

- repo: https://github.com/trailofbits/pip-audit rev: v2.4.3 hooks: - id: pip-audit args: [ "-r", "requirements.txt" ] ci: # Leave pip-audit to only run locally and not in CI # pre-commit.ci does not allow network calls skip: [ pip-audit ]

This is really nicely written; kudos to the author for compiling a great deal of information in a readable format.

If I can be forgiven one nitpick: Poetry does not use a PEP 518-style[1] build configuration by default, which means that its use of `pyproject.toml` is slightly out of pace with the rest of the Python packaging ecosystem. That isn't to say that it isn't excellent, because it is! But you the standards have come a long way, and you can now use `pyproject.toml` with any build backend as long as you use the standard metadata.

By way of example, here's a project that's completely PEP 517 and PEP 518 compatible without needing a setup.py or setup.cfg[2]. Everything goes through pyproject.toml.

Checking could be done if something like this eventually shows up in safety or pip-audit.

Something like python's pip-audit. For commercial solutions I know there's Snyk and Jfrog we can always purchase, but I'm interested to see if there's an open-source tool that can do this.

Dive deeper into the world of Husky with the official documentation. Explore the capabilities of Standard Version through its comprehensive documentation. Unravel the mysteries of semantic-release with its detailed documentation. Discover the versatility of bumpp with its comprehensive documentation.

Let’s walk through the steps for a one-time setup to configure husky pre-commit and pre-push hooks, ESLint with code styles conventions, prettier code formatter, and lint-staged. Husky automatically runs a script on each commit or push. This is useful for linting files to enforce code styles that keeps the entire code base following conventions.

We were already using lint-staged and have a pre-commit hook in place using Husky in our project for linter and prettier. So it made sense to add a check here.

Now, let's talk about Husky. It's a wonderful tool that enables you to run scripts on any Git hooks. We'll add a pre-commit hook to run ESLint and Stylelint checks before committing. This ensures that we don't commit code with errors.

In all my projects I use husky, lint-staged and commitlint.

One of the greatest things about a monorepo is that you can centralise a lot of tooling configuration. For example, chuck a .prettierrc in the root of your monorepo and you'll never have arguments about code style again. Put a few base tsconfigs in the there to extend, and suddenly TypeScript behaves with beautiful consistency across all your packages. Add formatting, linting and husky as dependencies in the root of your workspace and you no longer need to work through upgrading everything individually when a new version comes out.
