[Intelmq-dev] Packaging Strategy for Bots with dependencies

[Tomás Lima]

Some information that should help community follow your idea:

Repositories:
- how many?
- description for each one
- examples of which kind of code each one will have

You mentioned some complexity regarding this changes. What kind of
complexity do you see?



Suggestion
-----
Regarding configs (e.g. intelmq configured with phishtank and autoshun
feeds + dedup expert + file output bot):

bots.d\
  collector.conf
  collector.phishtank.conf
  collector.autoshun.conf
  parser.conf
  parser.phishtank.conf
  parser.autoshun.conf
  expert.conf
  expert.dedup.conf
  output.conf
  output.archive.conf


collector.conf, parser.conf, expert.conf and output.conf are the default
configurations for each type of bot which should be inherit for each type
of bot. Example: phishtank parser will load all configs from parser.conf
and if phishtank.parser.conf has some redefine parameters, this parameters
should overwrite the default ones.
