Description

Perform Package/License Discovery in Archives

Select this option to have the scanner recursively perform package discovery and license detection within all archive files encountered in the project codebase.

Dependency Support

Determine the level of dependency scanning to be performed by the scanner. The available options include:

•

No Dependencies: Only top-level inventory items are reported without any dependencies. (Default)

•

Only First Level Dependencies: Only first-level (or direct) dependencies are reported along with top-level inventory items.

•

All Transitive Dependencies: All first-level and transitive dependencies are reported along with top-level inventory items. The scanner calls out to the relevant package management repository to obtain transitive dependency information.

This option is supported only for Java/Maven through pom.xml files and NPM through package.json files. Additional technologies will be supported in future releases.

Automatically Add Related Files to Inventory

Select this option to have the system associate additional files to existing inventory items based on the data available in automatic detection rules. The automatic file mappings are marked with either high or low confidence.

Exact Matches

Select this option to have the scanner record exact matches for scanned files based on data from the Compliance Library (CL).

Source Code Matches

Select this option to have the scanner record source code matches for scanned files based on data from the Compliance Library (CL).

Include System Identified Files

(Available only when Source Code Matches is selected) Select this option if you want the scanner not to perform source code matching for files that are already associated with one or more inventory items.

Include Files with Exact Matches

(Available only when Source Code Matches is selected) Select this option if you want the scanner not to perform source code matching for files that have exact matches.

Search Terms

Provide a list of search terms to be used in the scan.

Scan Exclusions

Provide a list of file extensions to be excluded from the scan.
