This package includes an Artisan command that checks if your application uses dependencies with known security vulnerabilities. It is a wrapper around the [Enlightn Security Checker](https://github.com/enlightn/security-checker).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You may use Composer to install the package on your Laravel application:

```
composer require --dev enlightn/laravel-security-checker
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To check for security vulnerabilities in your dependencies, you may run the `security:check` Artisan command:

```
php artisan security:check
```

Options & Arguments
-----------------------

[](#options--arguments)

### Composer Lock File

[](#composer-lock-file)

You may specify a custom location for your `composer.lock` file, using the optional argument:

```
php artisan security:check /path/to/composer.lock
```

### Format

[](#format)

By default, this command displays the result in ANSI. You may use the `--format` option to display the result in JSON instead:

```
php artisan security:check --format=json
```

### Exclude Dev Dependencies

[](#exclude-dev-dependencies)

If you would like to exclude dev dependencies from the vulnerabilities scanning, you may use the `--no-dev` option (defaults to false):

```
php artisan security:check --no-dev
```

### Custom Directory for Caching Advisories Database

[](#custom-directory-for-caching-advisories-database)

By default, the `security:check` command uses the directory returned by the `sys_get_temp_dir` PHP function for storing the cached advisories database. If you wish to modify the directory, you may use the `--temp-dir` option:

```
php artisan security:check --temp-dir=/tmp
```
