## Requirements

You must have ClamAV anti-virus scanner running on the server to make this package work.

You can see the ClamAV installation instructions on the official [ClamAV documentation](http://www.clamav.net/documents/installing-clamav).

For example on an Ubuntu machine, you can do:

```sh
# Install clamav virus scanner
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y clamav-daemon

# Update virus definitions
sudo freshclam

# Start the scanner service
sudo systemctl enable --now clamav-daemon clamav-freshclam
```

This package is not tested on Windows, but if you have ClamAV running (usually on port 3310) it should work.
You will also need to have `sockets` extension installed and enabled (all executions without this module will fail with this error - `"Use of undefined constant 'AF_INET'"`).


## Installation

#### 1. Install the package through [Composer](http://getcomposer.org).

```bash
$ composer require sunspikes/clamav-validator
```

#### 2. Add the service provider (for Laravel 5.4 or below)

This package supports Laravel new [Package Discovery](https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/packages#package-discovery).

If you are using Laravel < 5.5, you need to add `Sunspikes\ClamavValidator\ClamavValidatorServiceProvider::class` to your `providers` array in `config/app.php`:

```php
'providers' => [
// ...

Sunspikes\ClamavValidator\ClamavValidatorServiceProvider::class,
],
```
#### 3. Publish assets from the vendor package

##### Config file

The default configuration file does use `ENV` to override the defaults. If you want to change the configuration file
anyway you run the following command to publish the package config file:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Sunspikes\ClamavValidator\ClamavValidatorServiceProvider" --tag=config

Once the command is finished you should have a `config/clamav.php` file that will be used as well.

##### Language files

If you want to customize the translation or add your own language you can run the following command to
publish the language files to a folder you maintain:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Sunspikes\ClamavValidator\ClamavValidatorServiceProvider" --tag=lang

This will copy the language files to `resources/lang/vendor/clamav-validator` for Laravel >= 5.1


## Usage

Use it like any `Validator` rule:

```php
$rules = [
'file' => 'clamav',
];
```

`ClamavValidator` will automatically run multiple files one-by-one through ClamAV in case `file` represent multiple uploaded files.
