Does When its key is <value> support regex in the value?

** Question : ** <A clear describe of your question. Ex, how can I do [...] for [...] with terraform-compliance ?>

Hi,

I have an use case where I need to check if the value of a key is some thing in the list

Ex: main.tf

{
  "Version":"2012-10-17",
  "Statement":[
    {
      "Sid":"PublicRead",
      "Effect":"Allow",
      "Principal": "*",
      "Action":["s3:GetObject","s3:PutObject","s3:PutBucket"],
      "Resource":["arn:aws:s3:::examplebucket/*"]
    }
  ]
}

test.feature

Scenario Outline: test scenario
........
When its Effect is Allow
And its Action is <value>
And it has Principal
Then its value must not match the "^\*$" regex

Examples:
| value     |
| s3:Put.+|

But this scenario is not able to identify the Action parameter values even though I have s3:PutObject and s3:PutBucket

Hi @vrbcntrl,

Only steps that explicitly mention regular expressions support regex evaluation. So When its Action is <value> does not support regular expressions.

Hi @Kudbettin

Thank you for looking into my question.

so, do you think, the support for regex to this particular step would be added in the future?

I have two work in progress solutions but didn't quite like either of them and ended up pushing this issue under the rug. I think before September is a realistic goal, given I'll be back home by then :)

np, thanks for the update.

Hey, are there any updates to this? I have a scenario where it would be super useful to filter by regex.
