have my basic set of policies - currently using the recommended docker-powered test approach to validate/test - ex:

docker run -i -t -v /path/to/policy/dir:/policies <http://ghcr.io/cerbos/cerbos:0.26.0|ghcr.io/cerbos/cerbos:0.26.0> compile /policies

however I notice that I have to place all of my resources in a single flat directory structure , so I get a role import error w/in my resourcePolicy doc when I try to keep thing tidy w/ /policies/derivedRoles and /policies/resources - whats the quick fix here? Thank you Cerbos - sorry for @ing ppl

Hi. That's odd. You should be able to put your policies in subdirectories. What's the error?

Ah, I think the issue is that you're mounting your

resources

subdirectory instead of

policies

. Try

docker run -i -t -v /path/on/host/policies/:/policies <http://ghcr.io/cerbos/cerbos:0.26.0|ghcr.io/cerbos/cerbos:0.26.0> compile /policies
