title: About the bash Resource
|
|

# bash
|
|
|
|
Use the `bash` InSpec audit resource to test an arbitrary command that is run on the system using a Bash script.
|
|
|
|
## Syntax
|
|
|
|
A `command` resource block declares a command to be run, one (or more) expected outputs, and the location to which that output is sent:
|
|
|
|
describe bash('command') do
|
|
it { should exist }
|
|
its('matcher') { should eq 'output' }
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
where
|
|
|
|
* `'command'` must specify a command to be run
|
|
* `'matcher'` is one of `exit_status`, `stderr`, or `stdout`
|
|
* `'output'` tests the output of the command run on the system versus the output value stated in the test
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
describe bash('ls -al /') do
|
|
its('stdout') { should match /bin/ }
|
|
its('stderr') { should eq '' }
|
|
its('exit_status') { should eq 0 }
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Matchers
|
|
|
|
This InSpec audit resource has the following matchers:
|
|
|
|
### be
|
|
|
|
<%= partial "/shared/matcher_be" %>
|
|
|
|
### cmp
|
|
|
|
<%= partial "/shared/matcher_cmp" %>
|
|
|
|
### eq
|
|
|
|
<%= partial "/shared/matcher_eq" %>
|
|
|
|
### exist
|
|
|
|
The `exist` matcher tests if a command may be run on the system:
|
|
|
|
it { should exist }
|
|
|
|
### exit_status
|
|
|
|
The `exit_status` matcher tests the exit status for the command:
|
|
|
|
its('exit_status') { should eq 0 }
|
|
|
|
### include
|
|
|
|
<%= partial "/shared/matcher_include" %>
|
|
|
|
### match
|
|
|
|
<%= partial "/shared/matcher_match" %>
|
|
|
|
### stderr
|
|
|
|
The `stderr` matcher tests results of the command as returned in standard error (stderr):
|
|
|
|
its('stderr') { should eq '' }
|
|
|
|
### stdout
|
|
|
|
The `stdout` matcher tests results of the command as returned in standard output (stdout).
|
|
|
|
its('stdout') { should match /bin/ }
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
None.
