inspec-reporter-html2 Plugin

An "improved" HTML output reporter specifically for Chef InSpec. Unlike the default html reporter (which is RSpec-based), this reporter knows about Chef InSpec structures like Controls and Profiles, and includes full metadata such as control tags, etc.

To Install This Plugin

This plugins ships with Chef InSpec. There is no need to install it.

It should appear when you run:

you@machine $ inspec plugin list

How to use this plugin

To generate an HTML report using this plugin and save the output to a file named report.html, run:

you@machine $ inspec exec some_profile --reporter html2:report.html

Note the 2 in the reporter name; if you omit it and run --reporter html instead, you will run the legacy RSpec HTML reporter.

Configuring the Plugin

No configuration is required for the plugin to function. However, two options are available for customization. The options are set in the JSON-formatted configuration file that Chef InSpec consumes. For details on this file, see the documentation.

For example:

{
  "version": "1.2",
  "plugins": {
    "inspec-reporter-html2": {
      "alternate_js_file":"/var/www/js/my-javascript.js",
      "alternate_css_file":"/var/www/css/my-style.css"
    }
  }
}

alternate_css_file

Specifies the full path to the location of a CSS file that will be read and inlined into the HTML report. The default CSS will not be included.

alternate_js_file

Specifies the full path to the location of a JavaScript file that will be read and inlined into the HTML report. The default JavaScript will not be included. The JavaScript file should implement at least a function pageLoaded() which will be called by the onload event of the HTML body element.

Developing This Plugin

This plugin is part of the Chef InSpec source code. While it has its own tests, the general contribution policy is dictated by the Chef InSpec project at https://github.com/inspec/inspec/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
