As a tool for aggregating data sources, Graphweaver integrates with many data providers. Each provider has its own method of authentication. To prevent leaking secrets Graphweaver has a pre-commit hook that that uses GitLeaks to ensure that no live secrets are being committed to code. To accomplish this locally contributors must:

1. Install GitLeaks with brew install gitleaks
2. Install pre-commit from https://pre-commit.com/#install
3. Auto-update the config to the latest repos' versions by executing pre-commit autoupdate
4. Install with pre-commit install

Now a precommit hook will run every time a commit is made.
