Refactoring for a Modular and Extensible Architecture (v1.1.0)

[AxelRhul]

Description

Currently, VulnWatcher is primarily designed to work with Discord. To extend its functionality and make it more versatile, a refactoring of the architecture is needed. The goal is to create a modular structure that allows easy addition of new notification platforms (email, webhooks, etc.) and integration of future features.

Objective

Modularize the code: Separate the different parts of the bot (vulnerability analysis, notifications, data storage, configuration downloading) into independent and reusable modules.

Tasks

• core module :

  • Move vulnerability analysis logic to src/core/vulnerabilityScanner.js

• download module :

  • Move the download of the packages register files (composer.lock and package-lock.json) to src/download/packageFileDownloader.js
  • change configs/ folder to packagesFiles/ folder

• notification module :

  • Move notification system to src/notification/discordNotifier.js

• global configration :

  • move config.json and sent_vulns.json to config/ folder

• documentation :

  • Update the whole general documentation to make the code more clear
