ClamAV integration with CakePHP via Validator

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- CakePHP 3.8.0+
- PHP 7.2+
- Clamd (daemon) up and running, connection via socket

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

`composer require cakedc/cakephp-clamav`

- Ensure clamav is up and running as daemon
- Configure the plugin using

```
\Cake\Core\Configure::write('CakeDC/Clamav', [
    // WARNING, disabling will SKIP virus check in validation rules
    'enabled' => true,
    // clamd listening in this socket, defaults to unix file socket
    'socketConfig' => [
        'host' => 'unix:///var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl',
        'port' => null,
        'persistent' => true
    ],
]);
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

For example, if you are using the `attachment` field to upload a file in a form, you can check for viruses using this code snippet in the related Table `validationDefault` method.

```
if (Configure::read('CakeDC/Clamav.enabled')) {
            if (!$validator->getProvider('clamd')) {
                $validator->setProvider('clamd', new ClamdValidation());
            }
            $validator->add(
                'attachment',
                'noVirus',
                [
                    'rule' => 'fileHasNoVirusesFound',
                    'provider' => 'clamd',
                ]
            );
        }
```
