# Example InSpec Profile
|
|
|
|
This example shows the use of InSpec [profile](../../docs/profiles.rst) inheritance.
|
|
|
|
## Verify a profile
|
|
|
|
InSpec ships with built-in features to verify a profile structure.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ inspec check examples/inheritance
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Execute a profile
|
|
|
|
To run a profile on a local machine use `inspec exec /path/to/profile`. All dependencies are automatically resolved.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ inspec exec examples/inheritance
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Set attributes for dependent profiles
|
|
|
|
Without setting attributes, an `inspec exec` would return the following:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ inspec git:(master) ✗ b inspec exec examples/inheritance
|
|
|
|

|

|
|
|
|
File /tmp
|
|
✔ should be directory
|
|
alice should
|
|
✖ eq "bob"
|
|
|
|
expected: "bob"
|
|
got: "alice"
|
|
|
|
(compared using ==)
|
|
|
|
should eq
|
|
✖ "secret"
|
|
|
|
expected: "secret"
|
|

|
|
|
|
(compared using ==)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Test Summary: 3 successful, 2 failures, 1 skipped
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To pass in attributes, just call:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ inspec exec examples/inheritance --attrs examples/profile-attribute.yml
|
|
```
