Package rekall :: Package plugins :: Package tools :: Module aff4acquire :: Class AFF4Acquire

Class AFF4Acquire

Copy the physical address space to an AFF4 file.

NOTE: This plugin does not require a working profile - unless the user also wants to copy the pagefile or mapped files. In that case we must analyze the live memory to gather the required files.

Nested Classes
	__metaclass__ Automatic Plugin Registration through metaclasses. (Inherited from rekall.plugin.Command)
	top_level_class A command can be run from the rekall command line. (Inherited from rekall.plugin.Command)

Method Details

column_types(self)

source code

Returns instances for each column definition.

The actual objects that are returned when the plugin runs are often determined at run time because they depend on the profile loaded.

This method is used in order to introspect the types of each column without actually running the plugin. A plugin must provide an instance for each column without running any code. This allows interospectors to learn about the output format before running the actual plugin.

Note that this method should almost always be overloaded. We try to do our best here but it is not ideal. Ultimately all plugins will override this method and just declare a column_types() method.
