Hello again everyone! |

============================ Progress ============================== |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
Some headway is being made on seorigin. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
To restate, seorigin is comprised of three components: |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
* The capture plugin - Grabs raw m4 macro expansions of a selinux |
| 10 |
policy package and parses it into source and definition records. |
| 11 |
* The Workflow component - Stores each record into a database for the |
| 12 |
query interface to later access, this database needs to check if it |
| 13 |
needs to be cleaned, or updated as well. |
| 14 |
* The Query Interface - The user end interface that displays the |
| 15 |
information needed by the user. Where all the magic happens! |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
The capture plugin is near completion; it parses source records from |
| 18 |
*.te files and definition records from all_interfaces.conf as well as |
| 19 |
*.spt files. I was able to create records from .te files and |
| 20 |
all_interfaces.conf but I want to double check some information before |
| 21 |
I continue on with *.spt files because it seems like their patterns |
| 22 |
are not as easy to spot as the others. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Once I know the patterns then the parsing will be easy enough. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
I hope to finish the capture-plugin completely within the next few |
| 27 |
days and I hope to begin working on the workflow component (which I |
| 28 |
believe will take the most time out of all of these components). |

Hope everyone is coding well! :) |
