NAME

Rapid7::NeXpose::API - Communicate with NeXpose via XML NeXpose API v1.1

VERSION

Version 0.03

SYNOPSIS

This is Perl interface for communication with NeXpose scanner over API v1.1. You can start, stop, pause and resume scan. Watch progress and status of scan, download report, etc.

Currently you can only start scan, list sites and delete site.

    use Rapid7::NeXpose::API;

    my $n = Rapid7::NeXpose::API->new(
                    url=>'https://localhost:3780',password=>'test');
    my $sl = $n->sitelist();
    print "Starting scan for first site found: ";
    printf "%s with ID: %s\n", $sl->[0]->{'name'}, $sl->[0]->{'id'};
    $n->sitescan($sl->[0]->{'id'});

NOTICE

This CPAN module uses LWP for communicating with NeXpose over its API via https. Therefore, make sure that you have Net::SSL (provided by Crypt::SSLeay): http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Crypt::SSLeay or IO::Socket::SSL: http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?IO::Socket::SSL

If you think you have login problems, check this first!
