Link
A Link object is created to gather evidence associated with a Step in the Supply Chain. It is a container with
materials
and products
, which are lists with Artifacts
After gathering all evidence it is digital signed by the Functionary
running the step and persisted, together with its signature, in the Argos Service
.
Every Link has a runId. This runId is as unique as possible to group Links which belong to each other. As an example all Link objects in a LayoutSegment. A git commit can be used, a timestamp or an application version or something other which is more or less unique. This used during the verification process.
Artifact
An Artifact
is has an uri and the secure hash of the target of the uri. At this moment only files are supported.
Default exclusion pattern
Gathering of artifacts has the default glob exclusion pattern {**.git/**,**.git\\**}
.
