BinwalkAnalyzer (Analyzer)

analyze(self, resource, config=None) async

Analyze a resource for to extract specific ResourceAttributes.

Users should not call this method directly; rather, they should run Resource.run or Resource.analyze.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
resource Resource

The resource that is being analyzed

required
config

Optional config for analyzing. If an implementation provides a default, this default will always be used when config would otherwise be None. Note that a copy of the default config will be passed, so the default config values cannot be modified persistently by a component run.

None

Returns:

Type Description
BinwalkAttributes

The analysis results
