Spacelift has launched Plugins, a set of tools designed to streamline the integration of existing infrastructure tools into workflows. Historically, combining tools like security scanners and compliance checkers required complex scripts and ongoing maintenance. Plugins aim to simplify this process by offering first-class integrations that enhance infrastructure operations without forcing teams into rigid processes. Users can augment their runs with security scanning, cost estimation, and compliance checks, while also standardizing tooling across their organization. The initial release includes popular tools such as Checkov, Trivy, and Infracost, which address security, compliance, and cost management. For instance, Checkov scans infrastructure code for vulnerabilities before deployment, while Infracost provides real-time cost estimates for infrastructure changes. The integration of these tools occurs seamlessly during Spacelift runs, ensuring that teams have the insights they need before making changes in production. Customizability is a key feature of Plugins, enabled through Spaceforge, Spacelift's open-source SDK. Developers can create tailored plugins to meet specific organizational needs, integrating proprietary tools or enhancing existing functionalities. The repository is open to community contributions, allowing users to share improvements or new plugins, fostering a collaborative ecosystem. The article highlights practical examples of how teams are already leveraging Plugins, such as chaining security tools for comprehensive checks and managing secrets securely during deployments.
