=head1 NAME

aa-easyprof - AppArmor profile generation made easy.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<aa-easyprof> [option] E<lt>path to binaryE<gt>

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<aa-easyprof> provides an easy to use interface for AppArmor policy
generation. B<aa-easyprof> supports the use of templates and policy groups to
quickly profile an application. Please note that while this tool can help
with policy generation, its utility is dependent on the quality of the
templates, policy groups and abstractions used. Also, this tool may create
policy which is less restricted than creating policy by hand or with
B<aa-genprof> and B<aa-logprof>.

=head1 OPTIONS

B<aa-easyprof> accepts the following arguments:

=over 4

=item -t TEMPLATE, --template=TEMPLATE

Specify which template to use. May specify either a system template from
/usr/share/apparmor/easyprof/templates or a filename for the template to
use. If not specified, use /usr/share/apparmor/easyprof/templates/default.

=item -p POLICYGROUPS, --policy-groups=POLICYGROUPS

Specify POLICY as a comma-separated list of policy groups. See --list-templates
for supported policy groups. The available policy groups are in
/usr/share/apparmor/easyprof/policy. Policy groups are simply groupings of
AppArmor rules or policies. They are similar to AppArmor abstractions, but
usually encompass more policy rules.

=item --parser PATH

Specify the PATH of the apparmor_parser binary to use when verifying
policy. If this option is not specified, aa-easyprof will attempt to
locate the path starting with /sbin/apparmor_parser.

=item -a ABSTRACTIONS, --abstractions=ABSTRACTIONS

Specify ABSTRACTIONS as a comma-separated list of AppArmor abstractions. It is
usually recommended you use policy groups instead, but this is provided as a
convenience. AppArmor abstractions are located in /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions.
See apparmor.d(5) for details.

=item -b PATH, --base=PATH

Set the base PATH for resolving abstractions specified by --abstractions.
See the same option in apparmor_parser(8) for details.

=item -I PATH, --Include=PATH

Add PATH to the search paths used for resolving abstractions specified by
--abstractions. See the same option in apparmor_parser(8) for details.

=item -r PATH, --read-path=PATH

Specify a PATH to allow owner reads. May be specified multiple times. If the
PATH ends in a '/', then PATH is treated as a directory and reads are allowed
to all files under this directory. Can optionally use '/*' at the end of the
PATH to only allow reads to files directly in PATH.

=item -w PATH, --write-dir=PATH

Like --read-path but also allow owner writes in additions to reads.

=item -n NAME, --name=NAME

Specify NAME of policy. If not specified, NAME is set to the name of the
binary. The NAME of the policy is typically only used for profile meta
data and does not specify the AppArmor profile name.

=item --profile-name=PROFILENAME

Specify the AppArmor profile name. When set, uses 'profile PROFILENAME' in the
profile. When set and specifying a binary, uses 'profile PROFILENAME BINARY'
in the profile. If not set, the binary will be used as the profile name and
profile attachment.

=item --template-var="@{VAR}=VALUE"

Set VAR to VALUE in the resulting policy. This typically only makes sense if
the specified template uses this value. May be specified multiple times.

=item --list-templates

List available templates.

=item --show-template

Display template specified with --template.

=item --templates-dir=PATH

Use PATH instead of system templates directory.

=item --include-templates-dir=PATH

Include PATH when searching for templates in addition to the system templates
directory (or the one specified with --templates-dir). System templates will
match before those in PATH.

=item --list-policy-groups

List available policy groups.

=item --show-policy-group

Display policy groups specified with --policy-groups.

=item --policy-groups-dir=PATH

Use PATH instead of system policy-groups directory.

=item --include-policy-groups-dir=PATH

Include PATH when searching for policy groups in addition to the system
policy-groups directory (or the one specified with --policy-groups-dir). System
policy-groups will match before those in PATH.

=item --policy-version=VERSION

Must be used with --policy-vendor and is used to specify the version of policy
groups and templates. When specified, B<aa-easyprof> looks for the subdirectory
VENDOR/VERSION within the policy-groups and templates directory. The specified
version must be a positive decimal number compatible with the JSON Number type.
Eg, when using:


    $ aa-easyprof --templates-dir=/usr/share/apparmor/easyprof/templates \
                  --policy-groups-dir=/usr/share/apparmor/easyprof/policygroups \
                  --policy-vendor="foo" \
                  --policy-version=1.0

Then /usr/share/apparmor/easyprof/templates/foo/1.0 will be searched for
templates and /usr/share/apparmor/easyprof/policygroups/foo/1.0 for policy
groups.

=item --policy-vendor=VENDOR

Must be used with --policy-version and is used to specify the vendor for policy
groups and templates. See --policy-version for more information.

=item --author

Specify author of the policy.

=item --copyright

Specify copyright of the policy.

=item --comment

Specify comment for the policy.

=item -m MANIFEST, --manifest=MANIFEST

B<aa-easyprof> also supports using a JSON manifest file for specifying options
related to policy. Unlike command line arguments, the JSON file may specify
multiple profiles. The structure of the JSON is:

  {
    "security": {
      "profiles": {
        "<profile name 1>": {
          ... attributes specific to this profile ...
        },
        "<profile name 2>": {
          ...
        }
      }
    }
  }

Each profile JSON object (ie, everything under a profile name) may specify any
fields related to policy. The "security" JSON container object is optional and
may be omitted. An example manifest file demonstrating all fields is:

  {
    "security": {
      "profiles": {
        "com.example.foo": {
          "abstractions": [
            "audio",
            "gnome"
          ],
          "author": "Your Name",
          "binary": "/opt/foo/**",
          "comment": "Unstructured single-line comment",
          "copyright": "Unstructured single-line copyright statement",
          "name": "My Foo App",
          "policy_groups": [
            "networking",
            "user-application"
          ],
          "policy_vendor": "somevendor",
          "policy_version": 1.0,
          "read_path": [
            "/tmp/foo_r",
            "/tmp/bar_r/"
          ],
          "template": "user-application",
          "template_variables": {
            "APPNAME": "foo",
            "VAR1": "bar",
            "VAR2": "baz"
          },
          "write_path": [
            "/tmp/foo_w",
            "/tmp/bar_w/"
          ]
        }
      }
    }
  }

A manifest file does not have to include all the fields. Eg, a manifest file
for an Ubuntu SDK application might be:

  {
    "security": {
      "profiles": {
        "com.ubuntu.developer.myusername.MyCoolApp": {
          "policy_groups": [
            "networking",
            "online-accounts"
          ],
          "policy_vendor": "ubuntu",
          "policy_version": 1.0,
          "template": "ubuntu-sdk",
          "template_variables": {
            "APPNAME": "MyCoolApp",
            "APPVERSION": "0.1.2"
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }

=item --verify-manifest

When used with --manifest, warn about potentially unsafe definitions in the
manifest file.

=item --output-format=FORMAT

Specify either B<text> (default if unspecified) for AppArmor policy output or
B<json> for JSON manifest format.

=item --output-directory=DIR

Specify output directory for profile. If unspecified, policy is sent to stdout.

=back

=head1 EXAMPLES

Example usage for a program named 'foo' which is installed in /opt/foo:

    $ aa-easyprof --template=user-application --template-var="@{APPNAME}=foo" \
                  --policy-groups=opt-application,user-application \
                  /opt/foo/bin/FooApp

When using a manifest file:

    $ aa-easyprof --manifest=manifest.json

To output a manifest file based on aa-easyprof arguments:

    $ aa-easyprof --output-format=json \
                  --author="Your Name" \
                  --comment="Unstructured single-line comment" \
                  --copyright="Unstructured single-line copyright statement" \
                  --name="My Foo App" \
                  --profile-name="com.example.foo" \
                  --template="user-application" \
                  --policy-groups="user-application,networking" \
                  --abstractions="audio,gnome" \
                  --read-path="/tmp/foo_r" \
                  --read-path="/tmp/bar_r/" \
                  --write-path="/tmp/foo_w" \
                  --write-path=/tmp/bar_w/ \
                  --template-var="@{APPNAME}=foo" \
                  --template-var="@{VAR1}=bar" \
                  --template-var="@{VAR2}=baz" \
                  "/opt/foo/**"
