Validation of files (tasks, stacks) without being logged in?

[diegoroccia]

Subject of the issue

I want to integrate some pre-commit check in the pipeline, so I would like to ask how can I lint/validate the files also when I am not logged in to the accounts (from the CI/CD pipeline or from my local laptop)

also, do you have any jsonschema for tasks and annotated stacks?

What do you suggest ?

there is a print-tasks operation on the cli that can generate "native" cloudformation templates from orgformation tasks & templates. the output of this can verified by other tools like cfn-lint.

e.g:

1. npx org-formation print-tasks my_tasks.yml --output yaml --max-concurrent-stacks 100 --max-concurrent-tasks 100
2. if [ -d .printed-stacks ]; then cfn-lint ./.printed-stacks/**/*.yaml -i W2001,E3001,E1019,W1020,W2509,E3021,W8001; else echo skipping linting; fi"

print-tasks will require you to be logged in to aws in some circumstances (perhaps all?) but only to read/resolve parameter values needed to build the templates

the list of rules that are ignored might need a review within your context/org. typically these have to do with (benign) artefacts created by the generation process.
