Scanning JavaScript/TypeScript NodeJS Projects

Fetch the latest agent image from an instance of Lineai, e.g.

Terminal window
docker pull lineai.com/lineai_javascript

Run the image, mounting the root of the project you wish to scan in a volume, e.g.

Terminal window
docker run                                         \
    --rm                                           \
    --interactive                                  \
    --tty                                          \
    --env LINEAI_HOST="https://lineai.com"   \
    --volume '/absolute/path/to/the/project:/scan' \
    'lineai.com/lineai_javascript'           \
    analyze                                        \
        --path /scan                               \
        --application my-project-name

By default, a new agent will be created in Lineai each time you run a scan. To avoid this, you can provide the container with credentials using the AGENT_UUID and AGENT_PASSWORD environment variables. For example, the command above could be re-written to include credentials from the local shell environment:

Terminal window
# Assuming that `AGENT_UUID` and `AGENT_PASSWORD` have


# been exported and are available in the shell environment


docker run                                         \
    --rm                                           \
    --interactive                                  \
    --tty                                          \
    --env LINEAI_HOST="https://lineai.com"   \
    --env AGENT_UUID="${AGENT_UUID}"               \
    --env AGENT_PASSWORD="${AGENT_PASSWORD}"       \
    --volume '/absolute/path/to/the/project:/scan' \
    'lineai.com/lineai_javascript'           \
    analyze                                        \
        --path /scan                               \
        --application my-project-name
