Migration guide

v4 migration

Array matchers (e.g. user.groups) no longer allows duplicates

Goss v0.3.X allowed:

user:
  root:
    exists: true
    groups:

      - root
      - root
      - root

Goss v0.4.x, will fail with the above as group "root" is only in the slice once. However, with goss v0.4.x the array may contain matchers. The test below is valid for v0.4.x but not valid for v0.3.x

user:
  root:
    exists: true
    groups:

      - have-prefix: r

rpm now contains the full EVR version

To enable the ability to compare RPM versions in the future, The version matching of rpm has changed

from:

rpm -q --nosignature --nohdrchk --nodigest --qf '%{VERSION}\n' package_name

to:

rpm -q --nosignature --nohdrchk --nodigest --qf '%|EPOCH?{%{EPOCH}:}:{}|%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}\n' package_name

file.contains -> file.contents

File contains attribute has been renamed to file.contents

from:

file:
  /tmp/foo:
    exists: true
    contains: []

to:

file:
  /tmp/foo:
    exists: true
    contents: []
