This is an OSP server implementation to allow GVM to remotely control OpenVAS, see https://github.com/greenbone/openvas.
Once running, you need to configure OpenVAS for the Greenbone Vulnerability Manager, for example via the web interface Greenbone Security Assistant. Then you can create scan tasks to use OpenVAS.
Python 3.5 and later is supported.

Your contributions are highly appreciated. Please create a pull request on GitHub. Bigger changes need to be discussed with the development team via the issues section at GitHub first.
For development you should use poetry to keep you python packages separated in different environments. First install poetry via pip
python3 -m pip install --user poetry
Afterwards run
poetry install
in the checkout directory of python-gvm (the directory containing the
pyproject.toml file) to install all dependencies including the packages only
required for development.
The python-gvm repository uses autohooks to apply linting and auto formatting via git hooks. Please ensure the git hooks are active.
poetry install
poetry run autohooks activate --force
