hatto

hatto is CLI for SBOM policy evaluation.

Requirements

hatto is using PyO3. So, hatto requires Python shared library.

sudo apt install python3-dev

Usage

evaluate

hatto evaluate <SBOM or tsv file>

$ hatto evaluate --help
evaluate policy

USAGE:
    hatto evaluate [OPTIONS] <FILE>

ARGS:
    <FILE>    

OPTIONS:
    -c, --curation <FILE>              
    -h, --help                         Print help information
    -o, --output <OUTPUT_FORMAT>       [default: human] [possible values: human, json]
    -p, --policy <FILE>                
    -t, --source-type <SOURCE_TYPE>    [possible values: tsv, spdx-tag, spdx-json, spdx-yaml,
                                       cyclone-dx-json, cyclone-dx-xml]

The evaluate ARGS file is SBOM or tsv. SBOM supports SPDX or CycloneDX.

Yet another hatto supports tsv. This tsv file must contain header.

example example.tsv

name	version	licenses	annotations
foo	1.0.1	MIT,Apache-2.0	usage=service
bar	1.1.2	UNKNOWN	

These files can generate with any license collection tool. If the license collection tool does not support SBOM, you shoud convert to tsv or SBOM.

And you can configure --policy and --curation.

The --policy file defines license policy that written in python. The policy file must implements def evaluate(material, result).

example polocy.py

#!/usr/bin/python

allowed_licenses = [
    "Apache-2.0",
    "BSD-3-Clause",
    "MIT",
    "Unlicense",
]

def evaluate(material, result):
    for license in material.licenses:
        if license not in allowed_licenses:
           result.add_error(f"{license} is not allowed")

$ hatto evaluate --policy policy.py example.tsv
OK foo 1.0.1 licenses:["MIT", "Apache-2.0"] annotations:{"usage": "service"}
NG bar 1.1.2 licenses:["UNKNOWN"] annotations:{}
  ERROR UNKNOWN is not allowed
Failure: evaluate failed

UNKNOWN is not allowed on policy.py. Therefore hatto evaluate is failed.

You may know bar true license is BSD-3-Clause. In such a case you can patch license information by --curation file. The curation file must implement def curate_material(material).

example curation.py

#!/usr/bin/python

def curate_material(material):
    if material.name == "bar":
      material.licenses = ["BSD-3-Clause"]

$ hatto evaluate --policy policy.py --curation curation.py example.tsv
OK foo 1.0.1 licenses:["MIT", "Apache-2.0"] annotations:{"usage": "service"}
OK bar 1.1.2 licenses:["BSD-3-Clause"] annotations:{}

These allow hatto to perform flexible license policy evaluation on your teams or organizations.
