Getting the source¶
Downloading the Scorpion source code¶
The source code is available on
scorpionantimalware/scorpion-antimalware
and while you can manually download it via the website, in general you want to
do it via the git
version control system.
If you don’t know much about git
yet, there are a great number of
tutorials available on various websites.
In general, you need to install git
and/or one of the various GUI clients.
Afterwards, to get the latest development version of the Scorpion source code
(the unstable master
branch), you can use
git clone --recurse-submodules --depth 1 --shallow-submodules https://github.com/scorpionantimalware/scorpion-antimalware.git
.
If you are using the git
command line client, this is done by entering
the following in a terminal:
git clone https://github.com/scorpionantimalware/scorpion-antimalware.git
# You can add the --depth 1 argument to omit the commit history.
# Faster, but not all Git operations (like blame) will work.
Note
DON’T forget to clone the submodules after cloning the repository. You can do this by running the following command:
git submodule update --init
Downloading the Console source code¶
The source code is available on
scorpionantimalware/sam-console
and while you can manually download it via the website, in general you want to
do it via the git
version control system using the following command:
git clone --recurse-submodules --depth 1 --shallow-submodules https://github.com/scorpionantimalware/sam-console.git
