Simple ClamAV Java client

What is provided

Support for basic INSTREAM scanning and PING command.

Clamd protocol is explained here: http://linux.die.net/man/8/clamd

Using the client

Code is self explanatory. Something like this is the idea:

  ClamAVClient cl = new ClamAVClient("192.168.50.72", 3310);
  try {
    byte[] reply = cl.scan(input);
  } catch (Exception e) {
    throw new RuntimeException("Could not scan the input", e);
  }
  if (!ClamAVClient.isCleanReply(reply)) throw new Exception("aaargh. Something was found: ", reply);

Maven dependency

<dependency>
  <groupId>fi.solita.clamav</groupId>
  <artifactId>clamav-client</artifactId>
  <version>1.0.0</version>
</dependency>

Creating the jar

mvn install

Testing the client

To run the automated tests you are assumed to run the clamd in a local virtual machine. Configuration for Vagrant and Oracle Virtualbox is provided.

To start test server simply

cd vagrant
vagrant up clamav

This will kick up a CentOS virtual machine and install ClamAV in it.
