Permit

Hi <@U04NUN8BCMQ> :slightly_smiling_face:

I think this is what you’re looking for:
<https://docs.opal.ac/tutorials/track_a_git_repo#policy-bundle-manifest---serving-dependant-policy-modules>

thanks for the quick response! I thought that the manifest was only used for the order in which the modules are loaded but if I leave a module out of the manifest then they are not loaded at all?

oh nice, thank you for the information :slightly_smiling_face:

Hey <@U01RH8JQKHD> I created a manifest and i see in the logging of the server that it can read it: `Explicit manifest to be used: ['generic/functions.rego', 'policy/example/url.rego', 'policy/rbac/rbac.rego']`but when i do a request via the client or the server (`/policy` end point) then I still get the rego tests.

In the response from the server I see the following manifest:
```  "manifest": [
    "generic/functions.rego",
    "policy/example/url.rego",
    "policy/rbac/rbac.rego",
    "policy/rbac/rbac_test.rego"
  ],```
which I find a bit strange because in the .manifest file looks like this:
```generic/functions.rego
policy/example/url.rego
policy/rbac/rbac.rego```
Am i missing something?

Hey <@U04NUN8BCMQ> we have an open PR to enable excluding files from policy, we should have it merged and released in the next few days :slightly_smiling_face:

Sorry for misleading there <@U04NUN8BCMQ>, I thought that PR was merged already

Perhaps in the interim you can use the POLICY dirs feature, and doing the filtering on the client-side subscribing

no problem :slightly_smiling_face: i think this is the PR you are referring to right? <https://github.com/permitio/opal/pull/372>

I will have a look at the policy dirs feature
