configurable and can be adjusted easily for downloading different feed releases

## Installation

### Version

`greenbone-feed-sync` uses [semantic versioning](https://semver.org/).

Versions prior to 25.0.0 used [calendar versioning](https://calver.org/).

> [!IMPORTANT] `greenbone-feed-sync` >= 25.0.0 requires [gvmd 25.0.0](https://github.com/greenbone/gvmd/releases/tag/v25.0.0)
> to work out of the box. If a version of gvmd < 24.0.0 is used, the feed release
> has to be set to 22.04 via the [config file, the `GREENBONE_FEED_SYNC_FEED_RELEASE`
> environment variable or the `--feed-release` CLI argument](#feed-release).
> For example run `greenbone-feed-sync --feed-release 22.04`.
> Alternatively you can downgrade `greenbone-feed-sync` to a release version < 25.0.0.
>
> Versions of gvmd between 24.0.0 and 25.0.0 have issues with the feed loading
> and require manual interventions.

### Requirements

Python 3.9 and later is supported.

`greenbone-feed-sync` requires the `rsync` tool being installed and available
within the `PATH`.

On Debian based Distributions like Ubuntu and Kali `rsync` can be installed via

```sh
sudo apt install rsync
```

### Install using pipx

You can install the latest release of **greenbone-feed-sync** from the Python
Package Index (pypi) using [pipx]

```sh
python3 -m pipx install greenbone-feed-sync
```

On Debian based Distributions like Ubuntu and Kali `pipx` itself can be
installed via

```sh
sudo apt install pipx
```

### Install using pip

**NOTE:** The `pip install` command does no longer work out-of-the-box in newer
distributions like Ubuntu 23.04 or Debian 12 because of [PEP 668](https://peps.python.org/pep-0668).
Please use the [installation via pipx](#install-using-pipx) instead.

You can install the latest release of **greenbone-feed-sync** from the
Python Package Index ([pypi]) using [pip]

```sh
python3 -m pip install greenbone-feed-sync
```

## Usage

Most of the time you should just run the script without any arguments to
download the new data for all necessary feed types

**NOTE:** See details about [usage on Kali Linux](#usage-on-kali-linux)

```sh
sudo greenbone-feed-sync
```

To get verbose progress output during the data download you might increase the
verbosity

```sh
 sudo greenbone-feed-sync -vvv
```

If the script is run in a cron job the output can be turned off via

```sh
sudo greenbone-feed-sync --quiet
```

To download only a specific feed content the `--type` argument can be used

```sh
sudo greenbone-feed-sync --type nvt
```

Run `--help` to get information about all possible types and additional argument
options

```sh
greenbone-feed-sync --help
```

## Usage on Kali Linux

When running `greenbone-feed-sync` as root user, for example via sudo, the
actual user and group of the process are changed to the `gvm` user and group via
[seteuid](https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.seteuid). This is done to
ensure that [`gvmd`](https://github.com/greenbone/gvmd) and
[`openvas-scanner`](https://github.com/greenbone/openvas-scanner) can read the
downloaded file contents.

When using the Greenbone Community Edition installed via packages on Kali Linux
a different user and group are used. They are both named `_gvm` instead.
Therefore the [group](#group) and [user](#user) settings need to be adjusted.
This can be done by using a [config file](#config-1).

```sh
sudo mkdir /etc/gvm
sudo chmod +r /etc/gvm
cat <<EOF | sudo tee /etc/gvm/greenbone-feed-sync.toml
[greenbone-feed-sync]
user="_gvm"
group="_gvm"
EOF
sudo chmod +r /etc/gvm/greenbone-feed-sync.toml
```

## Command Completion

`greenbone-feed-sync` comes with support for command line completion in bash
and zsh.

Setup for bash:

```bash
echo "source ~/.greenbone-feed-sync-complete.bash" >> ~/.bashrc
greenbone-feed-sync --print-completion bash > ~/.greenbone-feed-sync-complete.bash
```

Alternatively, you can use the result of the completion command directly with
the eval function of your bash shell:

```bash
eval "$(greenbone-feed-sync --print-completion bash)"
```

Setup for zsh:

```zsh
echo 'fpath=("$HOME/.zsh.d" $fpath)' >> ~/.zsh
mkdir -p ~/.zsh.d/
greenbone-feed-sync --print-completion zsh > ~/.zsh.d/_greenbone_feed_sync
```

## Settings

The `greenbone-feed-sync` script is adjustable for all kind of purposes and very
flexible which content gets downloaded. Most likely you will never need to
adjust the settings because the defaults will suffice. Changing the settings
is only required for experts and testing purposes.

| Description          | File to read the Greenbone Enterprise Feed key from. The key gives access to additional vulnerability tests for enterprise software among other advantages. See [Greenbone Enterprise Feed and Greenbone Community Feed in Comparison](https://www.greenbone.net/en/feed-comparison/) for more details. The default URLs are adjusted according to the data in the key. If the key file does not exist it is ignored. |

## Config

It is possible to use a config file for loading the settings of the
`greenbone-feed-sync` script. The config file uses the [TOML] format. Without
explicitly passing a config file, `greenbone-feed-sync` tries to load
`~/.config/greenbone-feed-sync.toml` and if that file doesn't exist afterwards
`/etc/gvm/greenbone-feed-sync.toml`.

Example:

```toml
[greenbone-feed-sync]
destination-prefix = "/opt/greenbone-feed"
lock-file = "/opt/greenbone-feed.lock"
no-wait = true
```

## Development

**greenbone-feed-sync** uses [poetry] for its own dependency management and
build process.

First install poetry via pipx

```sh
python3 -m pipx install poetry
```

Afterwards run

```sh
poetry install
```

in the checkout directory of **greenbone-feed-sync** (the directory containing
the `pyproject.toml` file) to install all dependencies including the packages
only required for development.

Afterwards activate the git hooks for auto-formatting and linting via
[autohooks].

```sh
poetry run autohooks activate
```

Validate the activated git hooks by running

```sh
poetry run autohooks check
```
