JSON report

The output JSON schema is as follows

{
  "routes": [
    {
      "path": "my/app/route",
      "fileName": "/path/to/associated/source/file",
      "method": "GET",
      "parameters": [
        {
          "dataType": "int",

visitor.golang=true
visitor.java.jaxrs=true
visitor.java.spring=true
visitor.js.express=true
visitor.python.django=true
visitor.java.frameworkdetection=true

Docker Support

After building the app you can build your container as such.

docker build -t <tag_of_your_choice> /path/to/attack-surface-analyzer

Your docker container will need at least one mount point for the directory containing your app. Here is an example.

docker run --read-only -v /source/path/to/app:/path/to/app/in/container -it <tag_built_with> -sourceDirectory /path/to/app/in/container -outputFile output.json -exclusions .*test.*

The --mount variant of mounting a volume can also be used if desired. If you want to write the output to a location outside of your container, then you will have to set a second mount point or re-use the existing one. If memory issues are encounterd, try running container with increased memory using the -m argument.
