How to feed the AIL framework
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
For the moment, there are three different ways to feed AIL with data:
|
|
|
|
1. Be a collaborator of CIRCL and ask to access our feed. It will be sent to the static IP you are using for AIL.
|
|
|
|
2. You can setup [pystemon](https://github.com/CIRCL/pystemon) and use the custom feeder provided by AIL (see below).
|
|
|
|
3. You can feed your own data using the [./bin/import_dir.py](./bin/import_dir.py) script.
|
|
|
|
### Feeding AIL with pystemon
|
|
|
|
AIL is an analysis tool, not a collector!
|
|
However, if you want to collect some pastes and feed them to AIL, the procedure is described below. Nevertheless, moderate your queries!
|
|
|
|
Feed data to AIL:
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the [pystemon's git repository](https://github.com/CIRCL/pystemon)
|
|
|
|
2. Install its python dependencies inside your virtual environment
|
|
|
|
3. Launch pystemon ``` ./pystemon ```
|
|
|
|
4. Edit your configuration file ```configs/core.cfg``` and modify the pystemonpath path accordingly
|
|
|
|
5. Launch pystemon-feeder ``` ./bin/feeder/pystemon-feeder.py ```
|
|
|
|
|
|
How to create a new module
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you want to add a new processing or analysis module in AIL, follow these simple steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Add your module name in [./bin/packages/modules.cfg](./bin/packages/modules.cfg) and subscribe to at least one module at minimum (Usually, Redis_Global).
|
|
|
|
2. Use [./bin/template.py](./bin/template.py) as a sample module and create a new file in bin/ with the module name used in the modules.cfg configuration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
How to create a new webpage
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
If you want to add a new webpage for a module in AIL, follow these simple steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Launch [./var/www/create_new_web_module.py](./var/www/create_new_web_module.py) and enter the name to use for your webpage (Usually, your newly created python module).
|
|
|
|
2. A template and flask skeleton has been created for your new webpage in [./var/www/modules/](./var/www/modules/)
|
|
|
|
3. Edit the created html files under the template folder as well as the Flask_* python script so that they fit your needs.
|
|
|
|
4. You can change the order of your module in the top navigation header in the file [./var/www/templates/header_base.html](./var/www/templates/header_base.html)
|
|
|
|
5. You can ignore module, and so, not display them in the top navigation header by adding the module name in the file [./var/www/templates/ignored_modules.txt](./var/www/templates/ignored_modules.txt)
|
|
|
|
How to contribute a module
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
Feel free to fork the code, play with it, make some patches or add additional analysis modules.
|
|
|
|
To contribute your module, feel free to pull your contribution.
|
|
|

Additional information
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
Manage modules: ModulesInformationV2.py
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
You can do a lots of things easily with the [./bin/ModulesInformationV2](./bin/ModulesInformationV2) script:
|
|
|
|
- Monitor the health of other modules
|
|
- Monitor the ressources comsumption of other modules
|
|
- Start one or more modules
|
|
- Kill running modules
|
|
- Restart automatically stuck modules
|
|
- Show the paste currently processed by a module
|
|
|
|
### Navigation
|
|
|
|
You can navigate into the interface by using arrow keys. In order to perform an action on a selected module, you can either press <ENTER> or <SPACE> to show the dialog box.
|
|
|
|
To change list, you can press the <TAB> key.
|
|
|
|
Also, you can quickly stop or start modules by clicking on the ``<K>`` or ``<S>`` symbol respectively. These are located in the _Action_ column.
|
|
|
|
Finally, you can quit this program by pressing either ``<q>`` or ``<C-c>``.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Crawler
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
In AIL, you can crawl Tor hidden services. Don't forget to review the proxy configuration of your Tor client and especially if you enabled the SOCKS5 proxy and binding on the appropriate IP address reachable via the dockers where Splash runs.
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
|
|
[Install AIL-Splash-Manager](https://github.com/ail-project/ail-splash-manager)
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
1. Search the Splash-Manager API key. This API key is generated when you launch the manager for the first time.
|
|
(located in your Splash Manager directory ``ail-splash-manager/token_admin.txt``)
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Splash Manager URL and API Key:
|
|
In the webinterface, go to ``Crawlers>Settings`` and click on the Edit button
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Launch AIL Crawlers:
|
|
Choose the number of crawlers you want to launch
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Old updates
|
|
|
|
##### Python 3 Upgrade
|
|
|
|
To upgrade from an existing AIL installation, you have to launch [python3_upgrade.sh](./python3_upgrade.sh), this script will delete and create a new virtual environment. The script **will upgrade the packages but won't keep your previous data** (neverthless the data is copied into a directory called `old`). If you install from scratch, you don't require to launch the [python3_upgrade.sh](./python3_upgrade.sh).
