Run an Agent-Based Scan for Yarn

You can use agent-based scanning to scan any code repository to which you have access and fulfills the above requirements. To run an example scan, you can clone one of the public Veracode SCA repositories:

git clone https://github.com/srcclr/example-javascript-yarn

After you add a srcclr.yml file to the directory where you point the Veracode SCA agent, you can specify scan directives for scanning your Yarn code.

Before you begin:

Meet the requirements for the Veracode SCA agent.
Have access to the Yarn repository.
Have NPM 2.10.0 or later installed on the local path.
Include the yarn.lock file in the repository to scan.
Include the package.json file in the repository to scan, in the same directory as the yarn.lock file.
Have Yarn installed through NPM and located on the local path.

The Veracode SCA agent runs a specific command to identify the dependencies and their versions in your project. You can run this command before scanning to test that the agent can build the project:

node -e var fs= require('fs'); \
  var parse= require('../lib/lockfile/parse.js').default; \
  var contents= fs.readFileSync('/path/to/example-javascript-yarn/yarn.lock', 'utf8'); \
  console.log(JSON.stringify(parse(contents)));

To complete this task:

Run the scan command with the Veracode SCA CLI agent pointed to the directory of the Yarn repository. For example:
```
srcclr scan path/to/{project_folder}
```
note
To scan code repositories hosted in Git, use the --url argument with the CLI agent.
To view more verbose output during the scan process, you can add the --loud argument:
```
srcclr scan path/to/{project_folder} --loud
```

Results:

The Veracode SCA agent uses the native package managers to identify the dependencies and their versions in your project. When the agent evaluates the open-source libraries in use, it produces a summary of the scan results. This summary includes counts for total libraries used, vulnerable libraries, percentage of third-party code, and a list of the vulnerabilities found.

Next steps:

After completing the scan, you can view the results.
