A python library for parsing, manipulating, and generating STIX content. The python-stix library
utilizes the STIX v1.0 Draft 2 bindings, is under heavy development and should be considered PRE-ALPHA.
There are no tagged releases at this time.
For more information about STIX, see http://stix.mitre.org.
The python-stix package depends on the lxml XML parsing library, the
python-cybox CybOX library, and the python-maec MAEC library.
To build lxml on Ubuntu, you will need the following packages from the
Ubuntu package repository:
- python-dev
- libxml2-dev
- libxslt1-dev
Once the dependencies have been built, you can install lxml via pip:
$ pip install lxml
Note, on Windows it is recommended to download a pre-compiled distribution of lxml.
For more information about installing lxml, see
http://lxml.de/installation.html
The CybOX and MAEC libraries can be found at their GitHub repositories: CybOX: https://github.com/CybOXProject/python-cybox MAEC: https://github.com/MAECProject/python-maec
To install, download or clone the repositories into their own folders. Once cloned or downloaded, the setuptools script, setup.py can be run to install CybOX and then MAEC, in that order. MAEC depends on CybOX, so CybOX must be installed first. To install, run the following commands from within the project directories:
$ python setup.py install
For more information about CybOX and MAEC, see http://cybox.mitre.org and http://maec.mitre.org
