Struct AppConfig 

pub struct AppConfig {
    pub matching: MatchingConfig,
    pub output: OutputConfig,
    pub filtering: FilterConfig,
    pub behavior: BehaviorConfig,
    pub graph_diff: GraphAwareDiffConfig,
    pub rules: MatchingRulesPathConfig,
    pub ecosystem_rules: EcosystemRulesConfig,
    pub tui: TuiConfig,
    pub compliance: ComplianceConfig,
    pub enrichment: Option<EnrichmentConfig>,
}

Unified application configuration that can be loaded from CLI args or config files.

This is the top-level configuration struct that aggregates all configuration options. It can be constructed from CLI arguments, config files, or both (with CLI overriding file settings).

deny_unknown_fields (here and on every nested section) makes a typo’d key or section a hard load error naming the offending field, instead of silently dropping the user’s settings while config check reports the file as valid. This intentionally makes stale configs fail loudly (matches the CRA-sidecar precedent). Because the JSON Schema is generated from these types via schemars, additionalProperties: false follows automatically.

Fields

matching: MatchingConfig

Matching configuration (thresholds, presets)

output: OutputConfig

Output configuration (format, file, colors)

filtering: FilterConfig

Filtering options

behavior: BehaviorConfig

Behavior flags

graph_diff: GraphAwareDiffConfig

Graph-aware diffing configuration

rules: MatchingRulesPathConfig

Custom matching rules configuration

ecosystem_rules: EcosystemRulesConfig

Ecosystem-specific rules configuration

tui: TuiConfig

TUI-specific configuration

compliance: ComplianceConfig

Compliance defaults for the validate/quality commands

enrichment: Option<EnrichmentConfig>

Enrichment configuration (OSV, etc.)

Implementations

impl AppConfig

pub fn from_preset(preset: ConfigPreset) -> Self

Create an AppConfig from a named preset.

pub fn security_preset() -> Self

Security-focused preset.

• Strict matching to avoid false negatives
• Fail on new vulnerabilities
• Enable typosquat detection

pub fn ci_cd_preset() -> Self

CI/CD pipeline preset.

• JSON output for machine parsing
• Fail on any changes
• Quiet mode to reduce noise

pub fn permissive_preset() -> Self

Permissive preset for messy SBOMs.

• Low matching threshold
• Include unchanged for full picture
• No fail modes

pub fn strict_preset() -> Self

Strict preset for well-maintained SBOMs.

• High matching threshold
• Graph-aware diffing
• Detailed explanations available

impl AppConfig

pub fn merge(&mut self, other: &Self)

Merge another config into this one, with other taking precedence.

This is useful for layering CLI args over file config. A field in other overrides the corresponding field in self only when it differs from the built-in default — a default-valued field is treated as “unset” and leaves self untouched. The sentinel is read from Self::default() rather than an inlined literal so it can never drift away from the actual default.

pub fn from_file_with_overrides( config_path: Option<&Path>, cli_overrides: &Self, ) -> (Self, Option<PathBuf>)

Load from file and merge with CLI overrides.

impl AppConfig

pub fn new() -> Self

Create a new AppConfig with default values.

pub fn builder() -> AppConfigBuilder

Create an AppConfig builder.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for AppConfig

fn clone(&self) -> AppConfig

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for AppConfig

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for AppConfig

fn default() -> AppConfig

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for AppConfig

where AppConfig: Default,

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl JsonSchema for AppConfig

fn schema_name() -> Cow<'static, str>

The name of the generated JSON Schema.

fn schema_id() -> Cow<'static, str>

Returns a string that uniquely identifies the schema produced by this type.

fn json_schema(generator: &mut SchemaGenerator) -> Schema

Generates a JSON Schema for this type.

fn inline_schema() -> bool

Whether JSON Schemas generated for this type should be included directly in parent schemas, rather than being re-used where possible using the $ref keyword.

impl Serialize for AppConfig

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl Validatable for AppConfig

fn validate(&self) -> Vec<ConfigError>

Validate the configuration, returning any errors found.

fn is_valid(&self) -> bool

Check if the configuration is valid.
