Evaluating Zeek package manager integration

Open ManofWax opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Pcapmonkey supports Zeek packages by mounting directly the package directory from the git repository. Users can add zeek script by copying manually the source code of the script downloaded from https://packages.zeek.org/ in this repository.

Zeek provide a package manager that can automatic this task.

Giving the ability to install packages using the package manager it could simplify Pcapmonkey usage but we should consider the following issues:

  • In what path are the packages installed? If is in a path inside the container if the user deletes the container and restart it (using for example docker-compose down all the packages are lost).
  • I think it will be useful to provide some package by default when runnig PcapMonkey (the packages that are provided right now. Can we somehow install those using zkg? Maybe by running it on our image? #10 Or we should keep it in the existing directory?
