Drift checks are triggered by a separate service, with its own Dockerfile

Requirements

  • Build/run the drift service (see Dockerfile_drift).
  • Backend database accessible to the service.
  • Webhook secret configured and used to protect internal endpoints.

Key environment variables

  • DIGGER_HOSTNAME: Base URL of your backend, used to call internal endpoints.
  • DIGGER_WEBHOOK_SECRET: Shared secret to authenticate internal requests.
  • DIGGER_APP_URL: Base URL for links in notifications.
  • DIGGER_DRIFT_REPORTER_HOSTNAME: Hostname for the reporter in CI job specs.

Scheduling and notifications

  • Set the org-level drift_cron_tab for when to scan.
  • Slack rollups use an org-level webhook URL when configured.
  • SQL helper snippets for periodic invocation live in drift/scripts/cron/.

Security

  • Expose internal endpoints only behind your network boundary and verify the webhook secret on requests.
