Usage doesn't work

[p420lch3]

from pyvas import client with client(hostname, username='username', password='password') as cli: r = cli.list_tasks() r.ok

TypeError: 'module' object is not callable

It should be :

from pyvas import *__ with Client**(hostname, username='username', password='password') as cli:

OR:

import pyvas with pyvas.Client("127.0.0.1", username='admin', password='123123') as cli:

Thanks, fixed!

Do you use this library? I'd be curious to know if there's anything missing, I don't have the full protocol implemented but I was going to eventually do some transformation of the spec into generic pythonic interfaces when I had the time.

I would like to use this library to build auto scanning program. Can you provide some examples to create scanning task.

You can look at the tests for examples, basically you need to create or get a config, get or create a target then create a task with the target and the config, usually there is a "default" config when you install OpenVAS, I always use that one. Then start/stop/resume the task. Then you can get the task results and reports, etc, perhaps download it using client.download_report(uuid=report_id, format_uuid=report_format_id)

config = client.create_config(name='name')
target = client.create_target(name='', hosts='0.0.0.0,127.0.1.1')
task = client.create_task(name='task', target_uuid=["@id"], config_uuid=config["@id"]) 
resp = client.start_task(uuid=task["@id"])
assert resp.ok
print(resp)
