[clamav-users] Seeking complete Installation guide of clamav-rest

[Micah Snyder (micasnyd)]

Hi Kin,

The “clamav-rest” project is a community project built on top of clamav-java (a different community project by the same person) that a client library for interacting with our clamd server program.  Here is the github project page for clamav-rest: https://github.com/solita/clamav-rest
Any questions about how to use clamav-rest should be directed to the issues page for that project.  It looks to me like the author, solita, has slowed down quite a bit with the project but is still actively maintaining it.

The web-GUI you’re asking about from the blogpost looks to me like “Postman”.  Postman is a general purpose REST API testing tool.  You can get it as a plugin for Chrome or as a native desktop application.  They have a free plan for basic use, and a few paid plans as well for teams and business use: https://www.postman.com/pricing/

I hope this helps.

-Micah

Subject: [clamav-users] Seeking complete Installation guide of clamav-rest

Hi team,

I knew clamav can act as a dedicated virus scanner server to provide remote scan service to other destination machines through using clamav-rest. But by far i keep searching and searching still not found any instructions to illustrate how to activate the REST service for remote scan. The questions i ain't figured are:

The clamav-rest API should activate/install on the virusscanner server or every destination(client) machine?

How to indicate the web-GUI like the screenshot below to perform scanning operation? are we needed to install clamtk to fulfill this requirement?

I referenced beneath instruction and by far successfully built virusscanner server, just the clamav-rest API not clear how to utilize it.
