swid-generator 0.3.0

Usage

The tool provides 2 subcommands to generate SWID tags or Software IDs.

Generate SWID tags:

usage: swid_generator swid [-h] [--env {auto,dpkg,pacman,rpm}]
                           [--doc-separator DOCUMENT_SEPARATOR] [--regid REGID]
                           [--entity-name ENTITY_NAME] [--full] [--pretty]
                           [--software-id SOFTWARE-ID | --package PACKAGE]

Generate SWID tags.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            Show this help message and exit.
  --env {auto,dpkg,pacman,rpm}
                        The package manager environment to be used. Defaults to "auto".
                        If the environment can not be autodetected, the exit code is set
                        to 3.
  --doc-separator DOCUMENT_SEPARATOR
                        The separator string by which the SWID XML documents are
                        separated. Example: For one newline, use $'\n'.
  --regid REGID         The regid to use in the generated output. May not contain any
                        whitespace characters. Default is
                        "regid.2004-03.org.strongswan".
  --entity-name ENTITY_NAME
                        The entity name used in the <Entity> XML tag. Default is
                        "strongSwan Project".
  --full                Dump the full SWID tags including file tags for each package.
  --pretty              Indent the XML output.

targeted requests:
  You may do a targeted request against either a Software-ID or a package name. The
  output only contains a SWID tag if the argument fully matches the given target. If
  no matching SWID tag is found, the output is empty and the exit code is set to 1.

  --software-id SOFTWARE-ID
                        Do a targeted request for the specified Software-ID. A Software-
                        ID is made up as follows: "{regid}_{unique-id}". Example: "regid
                        .2004-03.org.strongswan_Ubuntu_12.04-i686-strongswan-4.5.2-1.2".
                        If no matching package is found, the output is empty and the
                        exit code is set to 1.
  --package PACKAGE     Do a targeted request for the specified package name. The
                        package name corresponds to a package name returned by the
                        environment's package manager, e.g "glibc-headers" on a dpkg
                        managed environment. If no matching package is found, the output
                        is empty and the exit code is set to 1.

Generate Software IDs:

usage: swid_generator software-id [-h] [--env {auto,dpkg,pacman,rpm}]
                                  [--doc-separator DOCUMENT_SEPARATOR] [--regid REGID]

Generate Software-IDs.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            Show this help message and exit.
  --env {auto,dpkg,pacman,rpm}
                        The package manager environment to be used. Defaults to "auto".
                        If the environment can not be autodetected, the exit code is set
                        to 3.
  --doc-separator DOCUMENT_SEPARATOR
                        The separator string by which the SWID XML documents are
                        separated. Example: For one newline, use $'\n'.
  --regid REGID         The regid to use in the generated output. May not contain any
                        whitespace characters. Default is
                        "regid.2004-03.org.strongswan".

$ echo $?

Installation

The following package managers are supported:

• dpkg (Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, …)

• pacman (Arch Linux, Manjaro, …)

• rpm (Fedora, Red Hat, OpenSUSE, …)

The following Python versions are fully supported:

• Python 2.7

• Python 3.3+

• PyPy

Python 2.6 should also work, but you need to manually install the argparse library from the Python Package Index (or via your regular package manager).

$ sudo pip install -U swid_generator

$ wget https://github.com/strongswan/swidGenerator/archive/v0.3.0.zip
$ unzip v0.3.0.zip
$ cd swidGenerator-0.3.0

$ sudo python setup.py install

$ pip install -e .

$ swid_generator

$ python -m swid_generator.main

Testing

Setup

Testing for swidGenerator is set up using Tox and pytest. Violations of the coding guidelines (PEP8 with a few small tweaks) are counted as test fails.

The only requirement to run the tests is tox:

$ pip install tox

Running tests

To test only a single Python version, use the -e parameter:

$ tox -e py27

To see the coverage, use the cov testenv (which uses Python 2.7 by default):

$ tox -e cov

You can also combine multiple testenvs, just make sure that you have the corresponding Python versions installed:

$ tox -e py27,py34,cov

CI

We use different continuous integration / quality assurance services:

• Travis CI (testing): https://travis-ci.org/strongswan/swidGenerator

• Coveralls (test coverage): https://coveralls.io/r/strongswan/swidGenerator

• Landscape (code quality): https://landscape.io/github/strongswan/swidGenerator/

Coding Guidelines

Use PEP8 with --max-line-length=109 and the following error codes ignored: E126 E127 E128.
