Possible to use multiple SLURM files?

[netravnen]

Hello,

I wanted to ask a clarifying question regarding usage of single vs. multiple SLURM.json files.

The docs only specify usage of one single SLURM.json as input.

No mention if multiple SLURM.json files are supported.

Hi @netravnen.
Multiple SLURMs are not supported.
Out of curiosity: what is the use-case? Do you process them sequentially?

I do see a use case with filtering bogons using generated SLURM files. However I'm not sure on the semantics and not aware of an implementation supporting multiple SLURM files.

I use a local exception file for internal routes. As well as import the current as0 file exported by the APNIC testbed and a bogons list generated with rpki-as0-bogons. 3x in total.

Routinator 3000 does support use of multiple local exception files. It's is not well describes in the docs. It is mentioned in the example configuration file.

I'll take a look. Thank you for the details!

NB: The FORT validator do as well, (NICMx/FORT-validator/tree/master/src/slurm)

The SLURM files are defined by the --slurm flag. If the flag points to a file, the configuration is extracted from that single file. If it points to a directory, the configuration is the aggregation of the contents of its contained .slurm files.

A temporary (gortr independent) solution is here slurm-cat and tweeted about here: https://twitter.com/mahtin/status/1235805471883137029 - please consider testing.
