pySigma SQLite Backend

This is the SQLite backend for pySigma. It provides the package sigma.backends.sqlite with the SQLiteBackend class.

The backend supports the following backend options (passed with -O to sigma convert, or as keyword constructor arguments):

• table_name: The name of the SQLite table to search in
• reverse_indexed_fields: A list of fields that are indexed in reverse, as an optimization for endswith conditions

Further, it contains the following processing pipelines in sigma.pipelines.sqlite:

• sqlite_pipeline: Reject rules that aren't supported by this backend

It supports the following output formats:

• default: plain sqlite queries
• json: rule and sqlite query as json object

This backend is currently maintained by:

• DenizenB

SQLite User Functions

This backend generates queries containing the functions REGEXP and REV and expects them to be defined as user functions in SQLite.

Here's an example implementation in Python:

import re

def regexp(pattern, column, search=re.search, flags=re.IGNORECASE):
    return 1 if search(pattern, column, flags) else 0

db.create_function('regexp', 2, regexp, deterministic=True)

def rev(text):
    return text[::-1] if text is not None else None

db.create_function("rev", 1, rev, deterministic=True)
