@@ -26,41 +18,40 @@ npm install @push.rocks/smartantivirus
## Usage
The package provides two main ways to use ClamAV:
1. **Docker-based Usage** (Recommended): Uses `ClamAVManager` to automatically handle container lifecycle
2. **Direct Daemon Usage**: Uses `ClamAvService` to communicate with an existing ClamAV daemon
Below is a comprehensive guide on how to use both approaches.
The `@push.rocks/smartantivirus` package provides intuitive tools for integrating ClamAV's virus scanning capabilities into your Node.js applications. It supports both Docker-based container management and direct communication with a running ClamAV daemon. Lets dive into how you can effectively use this package.
### Docker-based Usage with ClamAVManager
The `ClamAVManager` class provides a high-level interface for managing ClamAV in Docker containers:
The `ClamAVManager` class simplifies the process of managing a ClamAV service running inside a Docker container. It ensures that the container is started, the virus database is updated, and logs are captured for monitoring.
#### Basic Setup
Below demonstrates starting a ClamAV container, updating virus definitions, and reading logs:
```typescript
import { ClamAVManager } from '@push.rocks/smartantivirus';
async function main() {
// Create a new manager instance
const manager = new ClamAVManager();
// Instantiate a ClamAVManager
const clamAvManager = new ClamAVManager();
// Start the ClamAV container
await manager.startContainer();
// Start ClamAV Docker container
await clamAvManager.startContainer();
// Listen for log events
manager.on('log', (event) => {
console.log(`[ClamAV ${event.type}] ${event.message}`);
clamAvManager.on('log', event => {
console.log(`ClamAV log (${event.type}): ${event.message}`);
});
// Get database information
const dbInfo = await manager.getDatabaseInfo();
console.log('Database Info:', dbInfo);
// Fetch and display database information
const dbInfo = await clamAvManager.getDatabaseInfo();
console.log('Database Information:', dbInfo);
// Update virus definitions
await manager.updateDatabase();
// Update the virus database
await clamAvManager.updateDatabase();
// When done, stop the container
await manager.stopContainer();
// Stop the container when done
await clamAvManager.stopContainer();
}
main().catch(console.error);
@@ -68,27 +59,26 @@ main().catch(console.error);
### Direct Daemon Usage with ClamAvService
The primary interface provided by the package is the `ClamAvService` class. It allows you to scan data in memory or verify the connection to the ClamAV daemon.
If you prefer direct communication with an existing ClamAV daemon, use the `ClamAvService` class. This allows you to scan strings and streams directly in memory.
#### Connection Verification and String Scanning
Below is an example of verifying connection to the ClamAV daemon and scanning a given string for virus signatures, using the EICAR test string:
```typescript
import { ClamAvService } from '@push.rocks/smartantivirus';
async function main() {
const clamService = new ClamAvService('127.0.0.1', 3310); // Replace with your ClamAV host and port
const clamService = new ClamAvService('127.0.0.1', 3310);
// Verify connection to ClamAV
const isConnected = await clamService.verifyConnection();
console.log(`Connection to ClamAV: ${isConnected ? 'successful' : 'failed'}`);
if (!isConnected) {
console.error('Could not connect to ClamAV daemon. Please check your configuration.');
return;
}
// Scan a text string
const testString = 'X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*';
const scanResult = await clamService.scanString(testString);
console.log('Scan Result:', scanResult);
// Scan a test string
const eicarTest = 'X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*';
const scanResult = await clamService.scanString(eicarTest);
console.log('EICAR Test Result:', scanResult);
}
main().catch(console.error);
@@ -96,184 +86,148 @@ main().catch(console.error);
### Streaming Scanning
The `ClamAvService` supports scanning both NodeJS streams and Web API streams using three specialized methods:
`ClamAvService` provides methods to scan NodeJS and Web API streams. This is particularly useful for processing large files or data transferred over the network.
- `scanStream(stream: NodeJS.ReadableStream)`: Scans any NodeJS readable stream (files, network, etc.)
- `scanWebStream(webstream: ReadableStream)`: Scans a Web API ReadableStream
- `scanFileFromWebAsStream(url: string)`: Fetches and scans a file from a URL using NodeJS http/https
#### Example Usage
#### Example: NodeJS Streaming
```typescript
import { ClamAvService } from '@push.rocks/smartantivirus';
import { createReadStream } from 'fs';
async function main() {
const clamService = new ClamAvService('127.0.0.1', 3310);
const clamService = new ClamAvService();
// Example 1: Scanning a local file stream (NodeJS)
const fileStream = createReadStream('path/to/local/file');
const streamResult = await clamService.scanStream(fileStream);
console.log('Stream Scan Result:', streamResult);
// Scan a local file stream
const fileStream = createReadStream('path/to/suspicious/file');
const fileScanResult = await clamService.scanStream(fileStream);
console.log('File Stream Scan Result:', fileScanResult);
// Example 2: Scanning a web resource using NodeJS http/https
const webResult = await clamService.scanFileFromWebAsStream('http://example.com/file');
console.log('Web Stream Scan Result:', webResult);
// Scan a remote file by stream
const remoteFileScan = await clamService.scanFileFromWebAsStream('http://example.com/file');
console.log('Remote File Scan Result:', remoteFileScan);
}
// Example 3: Scanning a Web API ReadableStream
const response = await fetch('http://example.com/file');
if (response.body) {
const webStreamResult = await clamService.scanWebStream(response.body);
console.log('Web Stream API Scan Result:', webStreamResult);
main().catch(console.error);
```
#### Example: Web Stream (in Browser)
```typescript
import { ClamAvService } from '@push.rocks/smartantivirus';
async function scanWebStream(url: string) {
const response = await fetch(url);
const webStream = response.body as ReadableStream<Uint8Array>;
const clamService = new ClamAvService();
if (webStream) {
const scanResult = await clamService.scanWebStream(webStream);
console.log('Web Stream Scan Result:', scanResult);
}
}
scanWebStream('http://example.com/streamed-file').catch(console.error);
```
### Handling Buffers
Scan binary data directly using a buffer:
```typescript
import { ClamAvService } from '@push.rocks/smartantivirus';
async function main() {
const clamService = new ClamAvService();
const buffer = Buffer.from('Potentially harmful binary data', 'utf8');
try {
const bufferScanResult = await clamService.scanBuffer(buffer);
console.log('Buffer Scan Result:', bufferScanResult);
} catch (err) {
console.error('Error scanning buffer:', err);
}
}
main().catch(console.error);
```
**Breaking Down the Example:**
### Error Handling and Event Monitoring
1. **Initialization**: We start by creating an instance of the `ClamAvService` class. It takes two optional parameters: the host and port where your ClamAV daemon is running. By default, it assumes `127.0.0.1` and `3310`.
2. **Verify Connection**: The `verifyConnection` method is called to ensure that our application can communicate with the ClamAV daemon. It returns a promise that resolves to `true` if the connection is successful, and `false` otherwise.
3. **Scan Strings**: We utilize the `scanString` method to scan a text string (in this example, the EICAR test virus string is used). This method converts the string to a buffer and sends it to the ClamAV daemon for scanning.
### Handling Buffers
Below is an example demonstrating scanning raw binary data in the form of buffers:
Both `ClamAVManager` and `ClamAvService` are designed with error handling features for robustness.
```typescript
import { ClamAvService } from '@push.rocks/smartantivirus';
import { ClamAVManager } from '@push.rocks/smartantivirus';
async function scanBufferExample() {
const clamService = new ClamAvService();
// This buffer should represent the binary data you want to scan.
const buffer = Buffer.from('Sample buffer contents', 'utf8');
async function errorHandlingExample() {
const clamAvManager = new ClamAVManager();
try {
const scanResult = await clamService.scanBuffer(buffer);
console.log('Buffer Scan Result:', scanResult);
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error scanning buffer:', error);
await clamAvManager.startContainer();
// Listen for errors in logs
clamAvManager.on('log', event => {
if (event.type === 'error') {
console.error(`ClamAV Error: ${event.message}`);
}
});
console.log('ClamAV container started successfully.');
} catch (err) {
console.error('Error starting ClamAV container:', err);
}
}
scanBufferExample();
errorHandlingExample().catch(console.error);
```
**Explanation:**
### Advanced Usage and Configuration
- We create an instance of `ClamAvService`.
- A buffer is created and passed to the `scanBuffer` method, which scans the in-memory data for potential viruses.
#### Customize Container Settings
### Error Handling and Debugging
Both `ClamAVManager` and `ClamAvService` provide comprehensive error handling:
Customizing the Docker container setup is possible through class methods and properties:
```typescript
try {
// Using ClamAVManager
const manager = new ClamAVManager();
await manager.startContainer();
// Listen for errors in logs
manager.on('log', (event) => {
if (event.type === 'error') {
console.error(`ClamAV Error: ${event.message}`);
}
});
const manager = new ClamAVManager();
console.log(`Container Name: ${manager.containerName}`); // Access default name
console.log(`Listening Port: ${manager.port}`); // Access default port
```
// Using ClamAvService
const service = new ClamAvService();
const scanResult = await service.scanString('Some suspicious string...');
console.log(`Infection Status: ${scanResult.isInfected ? 'Infected' : 'Clean'}`);
if (scanResult.isInfected) {
console.log(`Reason: ${scanResult.reason}`);
}
} catch (error) {
console.error('An error occurred during the scanning process:', error);
}
#### Managing Logs
Capture and filter ClamAV logs for insights:
```typescript
const manager = new ClamAVManager();
await manager.startContainer();
const logs = manager.getLogs();
const errorLogs = logs.filter(log => log.type === 'error');
console.log('Error Logs:', errorLogs);
```
#### Health Checks
Monitor and ensure ClamAV service readiness:
```typescript
const manager = new ClamAVManager();
await manager.startContainer(); // Includes readiness checks
const dbInfo = await manager.getDatabaseInfo();
console.log('Database Version:', dbInfo);
```
### Testing your setup
A preconfigured test script is provided, which demonstrates how to use the package with the Tap bundle testing framework. You can find the test script in `test/test.ts`. This is configured to run with the default `@push.rocks/tapbundle` setup:
Utilize provided test scripts to validate your ClamAV setup:
```bash
npm run test
```
The tests include creating and utilizing a `ClamAvService` instance and attempts to scan the well-known EICAR test string. They ensure that the basic functionality of the package is working as intended.
These tests use the `@push.rocks/tapbundle` framework to verify functionality, ensuring a reliable setup.
### Advanced Usage and Integration
### Conclusion
#### Container Configuration
The `ClamAVManager` supports customizing the Docker container:
```typescript
const manager = new ClamAVManager();
// Container properties are configurable
console.log(manager.containerName); // 'clamav-daemon'
console.log(manager.port); // 3310
```
#### Log Management
Access and process ClamAV logs:
```typescript
const manager = new ClamAVManager();
// Get all logs
const logs = manager.getLogs();
// Filter logs by type
const errorLogs = logs.filter(log => log.type === 'error');
const updateLogs = logs.filter(log => log.type === 'update');
```
#### Health Checks
Monitor ClamAV service health:
```typescript
const manager = new ClamAVManager();
// Service automatically checks readiness during initialization
await manager.startContainer(); // Includes readiness checks
// Get database status
const dbInfo = await manager.getDatabaseInfo();
console.log('Database Version:', dbInfo);
```
You can build upon these functionalities to implement advanced use cases such as:
- Automated virus scanning in CI/CD pipelines
- Real-time file monitoring in web applications
- Cloud-based malware detection services
- Integration with security information and event management (SIEM) systems
With the help of Node.js worker threads or external task queues like RabbitMQ, you can distribute scanning tasks efficiently within high-traffic environments.
