CycloneDX Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) generation utility

Project description

CycloneDX Python SBOM Generation Tool

GitHub Workflow Status Docker Image GitHub license Python Version Support Slack Invite PyPI Version Python Version Support Group Discussion Twitter


This project provides a runnable Python-based application for generating CycloneDX bill-of-material documents from either:

  1. Your current Python Environment
  2. Your project's manifest (e.g. requirements.txt)

The BOM will contain an aggregate of all your current project's dependencies, or those defined by the manifest you supply.

CycloneDX is a lightweight BOM specification that is easily created, human-readable, and simple to parse.

Installation

Install this from PyPi.org using your preferred Python package manager.

Example using pip:

pip install cyclonedx-bom

Example using poetry:

poetry add cyclonedx-bom

Usage

Once installed, you can access the full documentation by running --help:

$ cyclonedx-py --help
usage: cyclonedx-py [-h] (-e | -r) [-rf FILE_PATH] [--format {json,xml}] [--schema-version {1.3,1.2,1.1,1.0}] 
[-o FILE_PATH] [-F] [-X]

CycloneDX SBOM Generator

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -e, --e, --environment
                        Build a SBOM based on the packages installed in your current Python environment (default)
  -r, --r, --requirements
                        Build a SBOM based on a requirements.txt's contents
  -X                    Enable debug output

Requirements:
  Additional optional arguments if you are setting the input type to `requirements`.

  -rf FILE_PATH, --rf FILE_PATH, --requirements-file FILE_PATH
                        Path to a the requirements.txt file you wish to parse

SBOM Output Configuration:
  Choose the output format and schema version

  --format {json,xml}   The output format for your SBOM (default: xml)
  --schema-version {1.3,1.2,1.1,1.0}
                        The CycloneDX schema version for your SBOM (default: 1.3)
  -o FILE_PATH, --o FILE_PATH, --output FILE_PATH
                        Output file path for your SBOM (set to '-' to output to STDOUT)
  -F, --force           If outputting to a file and the stated file already exists, it will be overwritten.

Building CycloneDX for your current Python environment

This will produce the most accurate and complete CycloneDX BOM as it will include all transitive dependencies required by the packages defined in your project's manifest (think requriements.txt).

Simply run:

cyclonedx-py -e -o -

This will generate a CycloneDX including all packages installed in your current Python environment and output to STDOUT in XML using the latest schema version 1.3 by default.

Building CycloneDX from your Manifest

We currently support requirements.txt manifest files. Note that a BOM such as CycloneDX expects exact version numbers, therefore if you wish to generate a BOM from a requirements.txt, these must be frozen. This can be accomplished via:

pip freeze > requirements.txt

You can then run cyclonedx-py as follows:

cyclonedx-py -r -rf PATH/TO/requirements.txt -o -

This will generate a CycloneDX and output to STDOUT in XML using the latest schema version 1.3 by default.

Python Support

We endeavour to support all functionality for all current actively supported Python versions. However, some features may not be possible/present in older Python versions due to their lack of support.
