AK created BIT-1261:
-----------------------
Summary: Bro plugin documentation incomplete
Key: BIT-1261
URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-1261
Project: Bro Issue Tracker
Issue Type: Problem
Components: bro-aux
Reporter: AK
I found some issues with the steps found here:
<https://www.bro.org/sphinx-git/devel/plugins.html>. The three important
changes include running configure with the Bro directory option set, the name
of the *.bif file matches the plugin name specified to init-plugin, and the
call to byte_vec() in the return line of the example rot13 function. Other than
that, everything worked rather nicely.
The steps should be:
cd aux/bro-aux/plugin-support
mkdir rot13-plugin
cd rot13-plugin
../init-plugin Demo Rot13
# edit src/rot13.bif to include the following, note the difference in the
return line
module CaesarCipher;
function rot13%(s: string%) : string
%{
char* rot13 = copy_string(s->CheckString());
for ( char* p = rot13; *p; p++ )
{
char b = islower(*p) ? 'a' : 'A';
*p = (*p - b + 13) % 26 + b;
}
return new StringVal(new BroString(1, byte_vec(rot13), strlen(rot13)));
%}
./configure --bro-dist=%BRO_DIR%
make
export
BRO_PLUGIN_PATH=$BRO_PLUGIN_PATH:%BRO_DIR%/bro/aux/bro-aux/plugin-support/MY_PLUGIN_NAME
%BRO_DIR%/build/src/bro -N
%BRO_DIR%/bro -e 'print CaesarCipher::rot13("Hello")'
