init(self)
(Constructor)

None

Overrides: core.controllers.basePlugin.baseDiscoveryPlugin.baseDiscoveryPlugin.__init__

discover(self, fuzzableRequest)

Does a search in archive.org and searches for links on the html. Then searches those URLs in the target site. This is a time machine !

Parameters:

fuzzableRequest - A fuzzableRequest instance that contains (among other things) the URL to test.

Returns:

A list :

New Url's found by plugin, could be empty when method ends.

Overrides: core.controllers.basePlugin.baseDiscoveryPlugin.baseDiscoveryPlugin.discover

_spiderArchive(self, urlList, maxDepth, domain)

Here I perform a web Spidering with searchURL as a parameter. The idea is to configure the webSpider so it can have a regex as a config parameter that says what URLs to navigate and what not to. After getting the result, I should filter the URLs and change them back to the original ones and check them against the original site.

_existsInTarget(self, url)

None

getOptionsXML(self)

This method returns a XML containing the Options that the plugin has. Using this XML the framework will build a window, a menu, or some other input method to retrieve the info from the user. The XML has to validate against the xml schema file located at : w3af/core/ui/userInterface.dtd
