Struct Config 

pub struct Config {
    pub version: u32,
    pub extends: Vec<ExtendsEntry>,
    pub ignore: Vec<String>,
    pub respect_gitignore: bool,
    pub vars: HashMap<String, String>,
    pub facts: Vec<FactSpec>,
    pub rules: Vec<RuleSpec>,
    pub fix_size_limit: Option<u64>,
    pub nested_configs: bool,
    pub allow_out_of_root: AllowOutOfRoot,
}

Parsed form of a .alint.yml file.

Fields

version: u32

extends: Vec<ExtendsEntry>

Other config files this one inherits from. Entries resolved left-to-right; later entries override earlier ones; the current file’s own definitions override everything it extends.

Each entry is either a bare string (local path, https:// URL with SRI, or alint://bundled/...) or a mapping with url: and optional only: / except: filters.

ignore: Vec<String>

respect_gitignore: bool

vars: HashMap<String, String>

Free-form string variables referenced from rule messages and when expressions as {{vars.<name>}} and vars.<name>.

facts: Vec<FactSpec>

Repository properties evaluated once per run and referenced from when clauses as facts.<id>.

rules: Vec<RuleSpec>

fix_size_limit: Option<u64>

Maximum file size, in bytes, that content-editing fixes will read and rewrite. Files over this limit are reported as Skipped in the fix report and a one-line warning is printed to stderr. Defaults to 1 MiB; set explicitly to null to disable the cap entirely.

Path-only fixes (file_create, file_remove, file_rename) ignore the cap — they don’t read content.

nested_configs: bool

Opt in to discovery of .alint.yml / .alint.yaml files in subdirectories. When true, the loader walks the repository tree (from the root config’s directory, respecting .gitignore and ignore:) and finds any nested config files; each nested rule’s path-like fields (paths, select, primary) are prefixed with the directory that nested config lives in, so the rule auto-scopes to that subtree. Default false.

Only the user’s top-level config may set this — nested configs themselves cannot spawn further nested discovery.

allow_out_of_root: AllowOutOfRoot

Resolved allow_out_of_root: policy — which rules may read a config-declared path that escapes the repo root. Set by the loader’s finalize() from the user’s top-level config only (rejected from extends:); #[serde(skip)] so a directly deserialized or bundled Config can never set it. Default AllowOutOfRoot::Confined. See docs/design/v0.12/allow_out_of_root.md.
