This is a ruby gem to parse the result of yarn audit --json. You can filter different levels of findings, and ignore specific findings for a set time.

It needs as input the json file, and a YAML configuration file with directives on individual findings to ignore.

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add yarn-audit-wrap

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install yarn-audit-wrap

yarn-audit --file=<tmp/yarn-audit.json> --level=moderate,high,critical --ignorelist=<config/yarn-audit.yml>

All switches are optional, with defaults as shown above.

--help         This.
--file         json output from "yarn audit". Path is relative to app root.
--level        comma separated list of severity strings (case insensitive).
               INFO
               LOW
               MODERATE
               HIGH
               CRITICAL
               or use "ALL" to select all levels.
--ignorelist   path relative to app root, a YAML file containing list of packages to ignore, see below for format.
              default = config/yarn-audit.yml

The ignorelist is a YAML file of an array of hashes

Sample YAML:

---
:ignore:
- github_advisory_id: GHSA-cj88-88mr-972w
  :until: 2022-07-19

You can identify a finding by any key, github_advisory_id, cve, etc. Please use the :until key with a date in the future that will re-enable the finding to avoid config pollution, as well as pushing for best-practices to remove vulnerable packages.

The next logical step would be to implement a workflow that helps fix vulnerable npm packages. There is currently no equivalent to npm audit --fix for yarn, and ignoring the controversy (yarnpkg/yarn#7075), there are a number of workarounds that are currently in place.

This will be the next step, but it is my hope that yarn implements the --fix feature and such a workaround will be unnecessary.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
