It is possible to download the Algo scripts to your own Ubuntu 16.04 server and run the scripts locally.
In order to start, you need to install Ansible. Installing Ansible via pip requires pulling in a lot of dependencies, including a full compiler suite. It would be easier to use apt, however, Ubuntu 16.04 only comes with Ansible 2.0.0.2. The easiest solution is to install the Ansible PPA for a newer version of Ansible via apt, however, using a PPA requires installing software-properties-common
.
tl;dr:
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common && sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ansible/ansible
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ansible python-pip build-essential python-dev
pip install virtualenv
pip install --upgrade pip
git clone https://github.com/trailofbits/algo
cd algo
python -m virtualenv env && source env/bin/activate && python -m pip install -U pip && python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
./algo
Warning: If you run Algo on your existing server, the iptables rules will be overwritten. If you don't want to overwrite the rules, you must deploy via ansible-playbook
and skip the iptables
tag as described in deploy-from-ansible.md.
