About
-----
`clamd` is a portable Python module to use the ClamAV anti-virus engine on
Windows, Linux, MacOSX and other platforms. It requires a running instance of
the `clamd` daemon.
This is a fork of pyClamd v0.2.0 created by Philippe Lagadec and published on his website: http://www.decalage.info/en/python/pyclamd which in turn is a slightly improved version of pyClamd v0.1.1 created by Alexandre Norman and published on his website: http://xael.org/norman/python/pyclamd/
Usage
-----
To use with a unix socket::
>>> import clamd
>>> cd = clamd.ClamdUnixSocket()
>>> cd.ping()
'PONG'
>>> cd.version() # doctest: +ELLIPSIS
'ClamAV ...
>>> cd.reload()
'RELOADING'
To scan a file::
>>> open('/tmp/EICAR','wb').write(clamd.EICAR)
>>> cd.scan('/tmp/EICAR')
{'/tmp/EICAR': ('FOUND', 'Eicar-Test-Signature')}
To scan a stream::
>>> from six import BytesIO
>>> cd.instream(BytesIO(clamd.EICAR))
{'stream': ('FOUND', 'Eicar-Test-Signature')}
