lynis_report

Build Status

Manageable report from lynis text output. Currently available report formats: HTML, PDF, Microsoft Excel (XLSX)*.

If you want to be able to use the PDF or Excel output formats, you must install some additional software. As is, the modules are required regardless of whether you use these features or not. Attempts are being made to change that behavior.

Instriuctions for pre-requisite installation:

For Debian/Ubuntu

apt -y install htmldoc

pushd /tmp/
wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/M/MF/MFRANKL/HTML-HTMLDoc-0.10.tar.gz
tar xvf HTML-HTMLDoc-0.10.tar.gz
pushd HTML-HTMLDoc-0.10
perl Makefile.PL
make && make install
popd
wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/J/JM/JMCNAMARA/Excel-Writer-XLSX-0.95.tar.gz

\* It's possible that the Excel format will load for LibreOffic Calc, but this is currentl untested.  YMMV.
