cli.create_task(name) missing 2 required possitional arguments #20

Closed kounelios13 closed 6 years ago

kounelios13 commented 6 years ago

Hello.I have the following function that I want to use to create a task


def foo(name):
  with Client(host,username,password) as cli:
    cli.create_task(name)

However when calling this function I get the following:

cli.create_task(name) missing 2 required possitional arguments config_uuid and target_uuid`

Any ideas how to fix that

Hi Kounelios13,

it's telling you that OpenVAS requires you to supply a config and a target, as it needs to know what to scan and how to scan. See these docs for the corresponding action in the OpenVAS API
