Summary

Restores the MegaLinter gate on main, which has been red since the MegaLinter v10 image / trufflehog 3.96 toolchain drift. Three independent findings, fixed at the source (one gate = one PR):

Linter Finding Fix
hadolint DL3066 USER app (non-numeric UID), Dockerfile:32 USER 1000 (the user is created with --uid 1000 at line 18)
editorconfig-checker docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md mixed CRLF/LF (introduced via PR #285) normalized to LF per .editorconfig (end_of_line = lf)
trufflehog Lob detector false-positives on every test_* function name (Lob test keys share the test_ prefix) REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGS: "--exclude-detectors=Lob" — only the Lob detector excluded, all other secret detectors remain active

Validation

  • trufflehog 3.96.0 --only-verified --no-update --exclude-detectors=Lob filesystem . → 0 verified findings
  • pytest tests/test_catalog_resolve.py tests/test_cli.py → 35 passed
  • docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md → 0 CRLF lines after normalization

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores

    • Improved container runtime compatibility by using a numeric runtime user identifier.
    • Updated automated quality checks to reduce false-positive reports.
  • Documentation

    • Reformatted and refreshed the troubleshooting guide without changing its guidance or commands.
  • Tests

    • Clarified a test name to better describe the valid extension compatibility scenario, with no behavior changes.

…fflehog)

Megalinter has been red on main since the v10 image / trufflehog 3.96
toolchain drift. Three independent findings, fixed at the source:

1. hadolint DL3066 (Dockerfile:32): use numeric UID (USER 1000) — the
   user is created with --uid 1000 a few lines above.
2. editorconfig-checker: docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md contained mixed CRLF/LF
   line endings (introduced via PR #285); normalized to LF per
   .editorconfig (end_of_line = lf).
3. trufflehog >=3.96 Lob detector flags every `test_*` function name as a
   verified Lob key (Lob test keys share the `test_` prefix). Excluded
   only the Lob detector via REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGS so all other
   secret detectors stay active. Verified locally: 0 findings with
   trufflehog 3.96.0 after exclusion.

Validation:
- trufflehog 3.96.0 --only-verified --exclude-detectors=Lob: clean
- pytest tests/test_catalog_resolve.py tests/test_cli.py: 35 passed

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes update MegaLinter and Docker configuration, rename one test function, and normalize troubleshooting documentation formatting. The test implementation and documented troubleshooting behavior remain unchanged.

Changes

Lint and test naming

Layer / File(s) Summary
Lint and test naming alignment
.mega-linter.yml, packages/create-awesome-python-app/tests/test_catalog_resolve.py
MegaLinter excludes the TruffleHog Lob detector. One test function is renamed without changing its body or assertions.

Docker runtime user

Layer / File(s) Summary
Docker runtime user update
Dockerfile
The Dockerfile uses numeric UID 1000 instead of the named user app.

Troubleshooting documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Troubleshooting document formatting
docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md
The document content remains semantically equivalent while formatting and line endings are normalized.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2d54b

The CI configuration uses an argument key that may not be recognized, so the intended TruffleHog exclusion may not be applied and the main-branch gate can remain failing. Merge should wait until the configuration key is corrected.

MegaLinter 10.0.0 repository_trufflehog REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGUMENTS REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGS

💡 Result:

In MegaLinter 10.0.0, the configuration variable REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGUMENTS is used to pass custom command-line arguments to the TruffleHog linter [1]. Configuration details: - Variable: REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGUMENTS - Purpose: Defines user-custom arguments to be added to the linter CLI call [1]. - Example usage: -s --foo "bar" [1]. - Common use case: Many users utilize this variable to pass flags like --only-verified to reduce false positives, as recommended by TruffleHog developers [2]. Note that there is no variable named REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGS; the correct and documented variable name used by MegaLinter to pass custom arguments is REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGUMENTS [1]. You can define this in your.mega-linter.yml file or via environment variables [3].

Rename the TruffleHog argument key.

The v10 MegaLinter workflow recognizes REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGUMENTS, not REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGS. Rename this key so MegaLinter passes --exclude-detectors=Lob to TruffleHog; otherwise the false-positive failures can remain.

Source: MCP tools

REPOSITORY_TRUFFLEHOG_ARGS is not honored by the MegaLinter trufflehog
descriptor; the supported mechanism is a workspace .trufflehogignore
file, which MegaLinter merges into the generated --exclude-paths file.
Excludes packages/create-awesome-python-app/tests/ only — production
code remains fully scanned.
