Antivirus Check Service

The Antivirus Check Service provides the ability to scan files with a locally installed clamav daemon. The Antivirus Check Service processes incoming scan requests and sends the scan result to a specified web hook.

Usage

Antivirus Check Service provides two interfaces.

WebAPI

The WebAPI is the most common interface to use Antivirus Check Service. All requests besides of the root resource / have to be authenticated using basic access authentication.

A GET request to https://<antivirus-check-service>/ gives a detailed usage api doc:

"scan file request": {
    "description": "Download file and scan against virus (using local clamd), report back to given webhook uri",
    "path": "/scan/file",
    "method": "POST",
    "params": {
        "download_uri": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "Complete uri to the downloadable file"
        },
        "callback_uri": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "Complete uri to the callback uri"
        },
    }
},
"clamav daemon version": {
    "description": "Get clamav daemon version and last database update",
    "path": "/antivirus-version",
    "method": "GET"
},

To get the clamav daemon version and last database update, you can send a request to the WebAPI /antivirus-version. The response is similar to:

{"clamd-version": "0.99.2/24389/Tue", "clamd-database-version": "2018/03/13 - 08:12:22"}

AMQP

The Antivirus Check Service provides an AMQP API, which is used by the WebAPI as well. Authenticate and publish a message to the regarding queue using the routing_key:

• url: amqp://<user>:<password>@<antivirus-check-service>/antivirus

scan file:

• routing key: scan_file_v2
• message:

  {
    "download_uri": "https://<uri-to-file>",
    "callback_uri": "https://<uri-to-report-endpoint>"
  }
