Profiles

Default profile

The default profile is documented in the profile properties section of the Zonemaster::Engine::Profile module.

The default profile can be extracted from Zonemaster-Engine to a file using this command.

perl -MZonemaster::Engine::Test -E 'say Zonemaster::Engine::Profile->default->to_json' | jq -S . > profile.json

Creating profiles

Some properties are empty by default such as logfilter and test_cases_vars. Those properties are not present in the default profile. For an example of their usage, refer to the additional file, profile_additional_properties.json.

The content of the two files, as-is or modified, can be merged into a custom profile file that can be loaded by Zonemaster-Engine. Both Zonemaster-CLI and Zonemaster-Backend have direct options for loading a custom profile file.

A custom profile file only has to contain those properties that it should override.
