plaso.parsers.plugins module

This file contains basic interface for plugins within Plaso.

This library serves a basis for all plugins in Plaso, whether that are Windows Registry plugins, SQLite plugins or any other parsing plugins.

This is provided as a separate file to make it easier to inherit in other projects that may want to use the Plaso plugin system.

class plaso.parsers.plugins.BasePlugin[source]

Bases: object

A plugin is a lightweight parser that makes use of a common data structure.

When a data structure is common among several artifacts or files a plugin infrastructure can be written to make writing parsers simpler. The goal of a parser plugin is to have only a single parser that understands the data structure that can call plugins that have specialized knowledge of certain structures.

An example of this is a SQLite database. A plugin can be written that has knowledge of certain database, such as Chrome history, or Skype history, etc. This can be done without needing to write a fully-fledged parser that needs to re-implement the data structure knowledge. A single parser can be created that calls the plugins to see if it knows that particular database.

Another example is Windows Registry, there a single parser that can parse the Registry can be made and the job of a single plugin is to parse a particular Registry key. The parser can then read a Registry key and compare it to a list of available plugins to see if it can be parsed.

DATA_FORMAT = ''

NAME = 'base_plugin'

Process(parser_mediator, **kwargs)[source]

Extracts events using a parser plugin.

Parameters:

Raises:

ValueError – when there are unused keyword arguments.

UpdateChainAndProcess(parser_mediator, **kwargs)[source]

Extracts events using a parser plugin and synchronizes the parser chain.

This method updates the parser chain object held by the mediator, transfers control to the plugin-specific Process() method, and updates the chain again once the processing is complete.

Parameters:: parser_mediator (ParserMediator) – mediates interactions between parsers and other components, such as storage and dfVFS.

class plaso.parsers.plugins.BasePluginCache[source]

Bases: BasePluginCache

Cache for storing results of SQL queries.

CacheQueryResults(sql_results, attribute_name, key_name, column_names)[source]

Build a dictionary object based on a SQL command.

This function will take a SQL command, execute it and for each resulting row it will store a key in a dictionary.

An example:

sql_results = A SQL result object after executing the
              SQL command: 'SELECT foo, bla, bar FROM my_table'
attribute_name = 'all_the_things'
key_name = 'foo'
column_names = ['bla', 'bar']

Results from running this against the database: ‘first’, ‘stuff’, ‘things’ ‘second’, ‘another stuff’, ‘another thing’

This will result in a dictionary object being created in the cache, called ‘all_the_things’ and it will contain the following value:

all_the_things = {
    'first': ['stuff', 'things'],
    'second': ['another_stuff', 'another_thing'],
    'third': ['single_thing']}

Parameters:

sql_results (sqlite3.Cursor) – result after executing a SQL command on a database.
attribute_name (str) – attribute name in the cache to store results to. This will be the name of the dictionary attribute.
key_name (str) – name of the result field that should be used as a key in the resulting dictionary that is created.

GetRowCache(query)[source]

Retrieves the row cache for a specific query.

The row cache is a set that contains hashes of values in a row. The row cache is used to find duplicate row when a database and a database with a WAL file is parsed.

Return type:: set

Type:: dict[str, str]

Close()[source]: Closes the database connection and cleans up the temporary file.

Parameters:

file_object (dfvfs.FileIO) – file-like object.
wal_file_object (Optional[dfvfs.FileIO]) – file-like object for the Write-Ahead Log (WAL) file.

Raises:
