cti-python-stix2
================
This is an `OASIS TC Open
Repository <https://www.oasis-open.org/resources/open-
repositories/>`__.
See the `Governance <#governance>`__ section for more information.
This repository provides Python APIs for serializing and de-
serializing
STIX 2 JSON content, along with higher-level APIs for common tasks,
including data markings, versioning, and for resolving STIX IDs across
multiple data sources.
For more information, see `the
documentation <https://stix2.readthedocs.io/>`__ on
ReadTheDocs.
Installation
------------
Install with `pip <https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/>`__:
::
pip install stix2
Usage
-----
To create a STIX object, provide keyword arguments to the type's
constructor. Certain required attributes of all objects, such as
``type`` or
``id``, will be set automatically if not provided as keyword
arguments.
.. code:: python
from stix2 import Indicator
indicator = Indicator(name="File hash for malware variant",
labels=["malicious-activity"],
pattern="[file:hashes.md5 =
'd41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e']")
To parse a STIX JSON string into a Python STIX object, use
``parse()``:
.. code:: python
from stix2 import parse
indicator = parse("""{
"type": "indicator",
"id": "indicator--dbcbd659-c927-4f9a-994f-0a2632274394",
"created": "2017-09-26T23:33:39.829Z",
"modified": "2017-09-26T23:33:39.829Z",
"labels": [
"malicious-activity"
],
"name": "File hash for malware variant",
"pattern": "[file:hashes.md5 =
'd41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e']",
"valid_from": "2017-09-26T23:33:39.829952Z"
}""")
print(indicator)

`https://stix2.readthedocs.io/ <https://stix2.readthedocs.io/>`__.
STIX 2.X Technical Specification Support
----------------------------------------
This version of python-stix2 supports STIX 2.0 by default. Although,
the
`stix2` Python library is built to support multiple versions of the
STIX
Technical Specification. With every major release of stix2 the
``import stix2``
statement will automatically load the SDO/SROs equivalent to the most
recent
supported 2.X Technical Specification. Please see the library
documentation
for more details.
