-
Install InSpec for the profile execution
-
Clone the repository
$ git clone https://github.com/rusakovichma/postgres-baseline
- Create properties .yml file in postgre-baseline/attributes folder, where specify postgre installation settings. For example, centos7-test-attributes.yml:
user : postgres <-- postgre superuser name
appuser : appuser <-- application user account name
postgres_data : /var/lib/pgsql/data <-- pg data directory path
postgres_conf_dir : /var/lib/pgsql/data <-- pg configuration directory path
postgres_conf_path : /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf <-- postgresql.conf file path

-
Specifying the superuser password directly:
$ inspec exec postgres-baseline --input user_password='superuser_pass' --input-file postgres-baseline/attributes/centos7-test-attributes.yml --reporter html:/tmp/pg-inspec-baseline.html
-
(Recommended) Or obtain the superuser password from HashiCorp Vault:
- Install InSpec Vault plugin:
$ inspec plugin install inspec-vault
- Ensure two environment variables are set for the plugin:
VAULT_TOKEN – set to your authentication token. Contact your Vault administrator for instructions. VAULT_ADDR – set to the URL of your vault server, including the port.
- Put PG superuser password in Vault profile space:
$ vault kv put secret/inspec/postgres-baseline user_password=pg_superuser_pass
- Run the profile:
$ inspec exec postgres-baseline --input-file postgres-baseline/attributes/centos7-test-attributes.yml --reporter html:/tmp/pg-inspec-baseline.html
- Report of the baseline assessment will be at /tmp/pg-inspec-baseline.html
