Configuration

Add

'metascan' => [
    'key' => 'yourapikey'
]

to your application's config. You may want to use another HTTP client adapter. By default CURL is used. To use your own adapter, register ShiftpiMetascanApi\Http\Adapter and make sure it is an instance of Zend\Http\Client\Adapter\AdapterInterface.

Usage

Scan data

If you want to scan the whole content of a file, you should use the ScanService class. Retrieve an instance from the service manager by using the key ShiftpiMetascanApi\Service\Scan.

$service = $sm->get(\ShiftpiMetascanApi\Service\Scan::class);
$result = $service->scan(file_get_contents('/path/to/myfile.zip', 'myfile.zip', 'secretpassword'));

The second and third parameters are optional. If you upload an encrypted archive, Metascan Online can decrypt it if you provide the password as third parameter.

Lookup hash

A faster way checking files is looking up its hash. For that you can use the HashLookupService by retrieving ShiftpiMetascanApi\Service\HashLookup from the service manager.

$service = $sm->get(\ShiftpiMetascanApi\Service\HashLookup::class);
$result = $service->lookup(hash('sha256', file_get_contents('/path/to/myfile.zip')));

The parameter should be a SHA256, SHA1 or MD5 hash. If the parameter has an other string length, than a supported algorithm produces, an exception will be thrown. Please note: If you lookup a hash Metascan does not know, a "Not Found" state will be returned. This does not mean, that the file is probably not malicious.

Testing

There are some test files for the services present. You have to copy the file test/config/config.local.php.dist to test/config/config.local.php and paste your API key in order to run those.
These are tests against the real API, which will produce real API requests (no mocks!). Therefore be careful running them and keep yor API limits in mind. ;-)
