import scanCode from 'sast-scan';
jsx:
import React, { useState } from 'react';
import scanCode from 'sast-scan'; // Import your npm packageconst CodeScanner = () => {
const [code, setCode] = useState('');
const [results, setResults] = useState([]);
const handleScan = () => {
let vulnerabilities = [];
try {
vulnerabilities = scanCode(code); // Scan the code
} catch (error) {
console.error(Error scanning code: ${error.message});
}
setResults(vulnerabilities);
};
return (
Code Scanner
value={code}
onChange={(e) => setCode(e.target.value)}
placeholder="Enter code to scan"
/>
{results.map((result, index) => (
Vulnerability: {result.message}
Fix: {result.fix}
Line Number: {result.lineNumber}
))}
);
};export default CodeScanner;
Example Output:
• Vulnerability: The vulnerability description
• Fix: Suggested fix
• Line Number: Line number of the issueNote: you can refer dev.to Article for more informatation
