Hi there,

Is there any way to add a dispatcher for the webui usage in a programatic way ?
I'd guess some bin/arachni_web_script and Arachni/RPC/Server/Dispatcher#initialize-instance_method usage could be done, but if someone has any best practive/guidance in this, it would be lovely =)

Regards,

Regis A. Despres

   Not really, that's the way to do it, although you better use the arachni_rpcd executable to start a Dispatcher, then create the DB entry in the WebUI via arachni_web_script.

   Cheers

   Thanks for the very prompt reply !
   I have used arachni_rpcd.
   I'm a little bit more confused in order to achieve the DB insert , any clues ? =)

   Are you familiar with Rails models at all?

   Hehe, I'm not an expert by my guess something you've already replied could apply =)
   cf. https://github.com/Arachni/arachni-ui-web/issues/73

   Dispatcher.create( address: 'localhost', port: 7331, global: true, alive: true, description: 'descr.', user_ids: [N] # userid to link dispatcher with ).save( validate: false )
