Description: cti-taxii-server
        ================
        
        This is an `OASIS TC Open Repository <https://www.oasis-open.org/resources/open-repositories/>`_.
        See the `Governance`_ section for more information.
        
        Trusted Automated Exchange of Intelligence Information (TAXII™) is an application layer
        protocol for the communication of cyber threat information in a simple and scalable manner.
        
        *Medallion* is a minimal implementation of a TAXII 2.1 Server in Python.
        
        **WARNING:** *medallion* was designed as a prototype and reference
        implementation of TAXII 2.1, and is not intended for production use.
        
        *medallion* has been designed to be a simple front-end REST server providing
        access to the endpoints defined in that specification.
        It uses the python framework - `Flask <http://flask.pocoo.org/>`_.  *medallion*
        depends on back-end "plugins" which handle the persistence of the TAXII data and
        metadata. The TAXII specification is agnostic to what type of data a TAXII
        server stores, but this will usually be STIX 2 content.
        
        Two back-end plugins are provided with *medallion*: the Memory back-end and the
        MongoDB back-end.  The Memory back-end persists data "in memory".  It is
        initialized using a json file that contains TAXII data and metadata.
        It is possible to save the current state of the in memory store, but this
        back-end is really intended only for testing purposes.  The MongoDB backend is
        somewhat more robust and makes use of a MongoDB server, installed independently.
        The MongoDB back-end can only be used if the pymongo python package is
        installed. An error message will result if it is used without that package.
        
        For more information, see `the documentation <https://medallion.readthedocs.io/>`__ on
        ReadTheDocs.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        The easiest way to install *medallion* is with pip
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
          $ pip install medallion
        
        Usage
        -----
        
        As a script
        -----------
        
        Medallion provides a command-line interface to start the TAXII Server
        
        .. code-block:: text
        
            usage: medallion [-h]
                [--host HOST]
                [--port PORT]
                [--debug-mode]
                [--log-level {DEBUG,INFO,WARN,ERROR,CRITICAL}]
                CONFIG_PATH
        
            medallion v2.0.0
        
            positional arguments:
              CONFIG_PATH           The location of the JSON configuration file to use.
        
            optional arguments:
              -h, --help            show this help message and exit
        
              --host HOST           The host to listen on.
        
              --port PORT           The port of the web server.
        
              --debug-mode          If set, start application in debug mode.
        
              --log-level {DEBUG,INFO,WARN,ERROR,CRITICAL}
                                    The logging output level for medallion.
        
        To run *medallion*
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            $ python medallion/scripts/run.py <config-file>
        
        Make sure medallion is using the same port that your TAXII client will be connecting on. You can specify which port medallion runs on using the `--port` option, for example
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            $ medallion --port 80 config_file.json
        
        The <config_file> contains:
        
        - configuration information for the backend plugin
        - a simple user name/password dictionary
        
        To use the Memory back-end plug, include the following in the <config-file>:
        
        .. code-block:: json
        
            {
                "backend": {
                    "module": "medallion.backends.memory_backend",
                    "module_class": "MemoryBackend",
                    "filename": "<path to json file with initial data>"
                }
            }
        
        To use the Mongo DB back-end plug, include the following in the <config-file>:
        
        .. code-block:: json
        
            {
                 "backend": {
                    "module": "medallion.backends.mongodb_backend",
                    "module_class": "MongoBackend",
                    "uri": "<Mongo DB server url>  # e.g., 'mongodb://localhost:27017/'"
                 }
            }
        
        *Note: A Mongo DB should be available at some URL when using the Mongo DB back-end*
        
        A description of the Mongo DB structure expected by the mongo db backend code is
        described in `the documentation <https://medallion.readthedocs.io/en/latest/mongodb_schema.html>`_.
        
        As required by the TAXII specification, *medallion* supports HTTP Basic
        authorization.  However, the user names and passwords are currently stored in
        the <config_file> in plain text.
        
        Here is an example:
        
        .. code-block:: json
        
            {
                "users": {
                   "admin": "Password0",
                   "user1": "Password1",
                   "user2": "Password2"
                }
            }
        
        The authorization is enabled using the python package
        `flask_httpauth <https://flask-httpauth.readthedocs.io>`_.
        Authorization could be enhanced by changing the method "decorated" using
        @auth.get_password in medallion/__init__.py
        
        Configs may also contain a "taxii" section as well, as shown below:
        
        .. code-block:: json
        
            {
                "taxii": {
                   "max_page_size": 100
                }
            }
        
        All TAXII servers require a config, though if any of the sections specified above
        are missing, they will be filled with default values.
        
        We welcome contributions for other back-end plugins.
        
        Docker
        ------
        
        We also provide a Docker image to make it easier to run *medallion*
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            $ docker build . -t medallion
        
        If operating behind a proxy, add the following option (replacing `<proxy>` with
        your proxy location and port): ``--build-arg https_proxy=<proxy>``.
        
        Then run the image
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
            $ docker run --rm -p 5000:5000 -v <directory>:/var/taxii medallion
        
        Replace ``<directory>`` with the full path to the directory containing your
        medallion configuration.
