Description

Allows filtering the output config properties from himl-config-merger. Filter rules are part of the configs and can be defined hierarchically. The rules sit under a key that is passed as an argument to the tool through --filter-rules-key

Motivation and Context

Output configs can become very big when values are being reused/interpolated between levels or on the same level. For example a property defined at the root level is only needed by a subset of clusters. To minimize the output, the only partial solution currently is to overwrite that property for all the leaf paths that don't need it. When configuring multiple clusters/services, default properties get populated and are never used.

How Has This Been Tested?

Added a hierarchy with filters in the examples folder with values convering multiple scanarios:

• rule selectors for multiple keys with explicit value or matching a pattern
• rules keeping a list of properties
• rules keeping properties that match a pattern
