CrowdSec Hub for parsers, enrichers and scenarios.
This repository stores most of the official parsers/scenarios/collections for crowdsec.
The repository is not intended for use as-is, but rather as source of truth for the CrowdSec Hub and cscli.
Feel free to use the parsers/scenarios here as a source of inspiration.
cscli provides a hubtest sub-command to help contributors to create tests for parsers and scenarios.
cscli hubtest commands are expected to be run from the root directory of the hub. A git clone of this repository is the easier way to work

We're going to create the CI tests for the dovecot-parser. Before you start :
- you will need some actual logs
- you'd better know if the service logs on its own or via syslog (we're in the later case here)
- Create a new test
▶ cscli hubtest create dovecot-logs --type syslog
Test name : dovecot-logs
Test path : .../github/hub/.tests/dovecot-logs
Log file : .../github/hub/.tests/dovecot-logs/dovecot-logs.log (please fill it with logs)
Parser assertion file : .../github/hub/.tests/dovecot-logs/parser.assert (please fill it with assertion)
Scenario assertion file : .../github/hub/.tests/dovecot-logs/parser.assert (please fill it with assertion)
Configuration File : .../github/hub/.tests/dovecot-logs/config.yaml (please fill it with parsers, scenarios...)
What is relevant here is that every test is composed of :
- A log file and it's associated type (same
typeas seen in acquislabels:type) - A configuration specifying which parsers and/or scenarios must be enabled for the test
- A ultimately list of assertions that must be run against the parsers and/or scenarios output
Note: You can provide the parsers and scenarios you want in your test with --parsers and --scenarios (you can provide multiple parsers and scenarios)
If you want to test only a scenario, you can specify (--ignore-parsers) or set the ignore_parsers to true in the config.yaml
- Configure your test
We need to edit the test configuration to use the relevant parsers :
▶ cat .../github/hub/.tests/dovecot-logs/config.yaml
parsers:
- crowdsecurity/syslog-logs
- crowdsecurity/dovecot-logs
scenarios:
postoverflows:
- ""
log_file: dovecot-logs.log
log_type: syslog
note: the order doesn't matter. If the parser name is in the form author/parser it's from the hub, but relative paths are allowed for non-versioned parsers
Now we need to dump some actual logs into the test's log file :
▶ cat > .tests/dovecot-logs/dovecot-logs.log
Jan 28 10:16:13 dovecot-box dovecot[7508]: imap-login: Disconnected (auth failed, 1 attempts in 6 secs): user=<[email protected]>, method=PLAIN, rip=4.4.4.4, lip=7.7.7.7, TLS, session=<3650VvK5bdIaW-iK>
Sep 8 07:16:29 canyon dovecot: auth-worker(24058): pam(toto,1.1.1.1,<youpi>): pam_authenticate() failed: Authentication failure (password mismatch?)
Sep 8 07:46:51 canyon dovecot: auth-worker(24544): pam(toto,1.1.1.1): unknown user
- Run the test for the first time
Now that we have config & logs, let's run it for the first time :
▶ cscli hubtest run dovecot-logs

Things went wrong ? Don't panic
When working on a test, you can as well pass expressions directly to hubtest command and see the results :
