# bd_sig_filter
BD Script to ignore components matched from Signature scan likely to be partial or invalid matches.

## INTRODUCTION
Black Duck Signature matching is a unique and powerful way to find OSS and 3rd party code within your applications and
environments.

Signature matching uses hierarchical folder analysis to find matches with depth, identifying the most likely components matching the project.
Many competitive SCA solutions use individual file matching across all files in the project which is not effective 
to identify component matches because the majority of files in a component do not change between versions, 
so multiple matches will be identified for every file.

However, Signature matching can still produce false positive matches, especially where template code hierarchies 
exist in custom and OSS code.

Furthermore, Signature matches can be identified in folders created by Synopsys tools, or in cache/config
locations or test folders; these folders can be ignored at scan time, but can exist in the Black Duck project and need to 
be removed after scan completion. Additionally, when scanning
modified OSS, Signature scanning can identify the same component with multiple versions from a single project
location, with the need to curate the BOM to ignore duplicate components.

This script uses several techniques to examine the Signature match paths for components, searching for the component
name and version in the path to determine matches which are likely correct and optionally marking them as reviewed.

It can also ignore components only matched from paths which should be excluded (Synopsys tools, cache/config folders 
and test folders), and components which are duplicates across versions where the version string is not found
in the signature match path.

Options can be used to enable ignore and review actions, and other features.

## PREREQUISITES

Python 3.8+ must be installed prior to using this script.

## INSTALLATION

The package can be installed using the command:

    python3 -m pip install bd-sig-filter

Upgrade from a previous version using:

    python3 -m pip install bd-sig-filter --upgrade

Alternatively, the repository can be cloned and the script run directly using the command:

    python3 bd_sig_filter/bd_sig_filter.py OPTIONS

## USAGE

If installed as a package, run the utility using the command `bd-sig-filter`.

Alternatively if you have cloned the repo, use a command similar to:

    python3 bd_sig_filter/bd_sig_filter.py OPTIONS

Environment variables BLACKDUCK_URL, BLACKDUCK_API_TOKEN and BLACKDUCK_TRUST_CERT may also be used.

## SCRIPT BEHAVIOUR
The default behaviour of the script is to create a table of BOM components with details about what actions can be taken.
By default no actions will be taken, with only the table being created.

An example of the output table is shown below:

    SUMMARY:
              Components    Ignored    Reviewed    Neither
    ------  ------------  ---------  ----------  ---------
    Before           641          0           0        641
    After            641         24         615          2
    
    Component                             Match Type    Ignored    Reviewed    To be Ignored    To be Reviewed    Action

Note component names are truncated at 25 characters.

The `Before` and `After` rows in the SUMMARY list the total number of components, and how many components would be ignored or
marked reviewed by the script (if the `--ignore` and `--review` options are supplied).

The list of components shows the name, matchtypes and current ignore/review statuses, with the future status
(after running the script with the `--ignore` and `--review` options) in the `To Be Ignored` and `To Be Reviewed` 
columns with an explanation in the `Action` column.

The following options can be specified:

    --ignore:               Ignore components as shown in the `To Be Ignored` column
    --review:               Mark components as reviewed as shown in the `To Be Reviewed` column
    --no_ignore_test:       Do not ignore components with signature paths within test folders
    --no_ignore_synopsys:   Do not ignore components with signature paths within Synopsys tools folders (for example '.synopsys')
    --no_ignore_defaults:   Do not ignore components with signature paths in cache/config folders (for example '.git', '.m2', '.local')
    --version_match_required:
                            Enforce search for component version string in signature paths for marking reviewed
                            (Paths containing only the component name will be used for matching otherwise)
    --ignore_no_path_matches:
                            Components with no match in the signature path are left unreviewed by default, allowing
                            manual review. Use this option to ignore these components instead but use with caution
                            as it may exclude components which are legitimate (the Signature match path does not
                            have to include the component name or version).

The options --report_file and --logfile can be used to output the tabular report and logging data to
specified files.

## PROPOSED WORKFLOW

The script provides automatic classification of Signature scan results.

It can mark components as reviewed which are either Dependencies, or which have signature match paths containing
the component name (and optionally component version) and therefore highly likely to be correctly identified
by Signature matching. Fuzzy pattern matching is used so there is the possibility
that components could be marked as reviewed where only a partial match exists, or components which should be matched
are not identified meaning that manual curation may still be required.

It will also ignore components only matched within extraneous folders (for example created by Synopsys tools, 
config/cache folders or test folders).

Components shown with `No action` are Signature matches where the component name or version 
could not be identified in the signature paths, so they are potential false matches and require manual review.
Specify the `--ignore_no_path_matches` option to ignore these components automatically.
Duplicate components with multiple versions where the version 
is not found in the signature match path are also marked as ignored.
