The module list is still initialized at yr_initialize() time, but modules can be added later.
These functions are required or useful for module code. Library client code that brings along its own ad-hoc module definition should have the same access to those functions.
Individual modules' YR_MODULE structs are now defined alongside the rest of the module code.

I have rebased my branch upon master. Is there any interest in this? |
|
As all my efforts are currently going to https://github.com/VirusTotal/yara-x, I prefer to keep these changes out, release YARA 4.3 and then put this repo in maintenance mode for a while (only bug-fixes and overall maintenance, no new features), until future of yara-x is clear enough. |

Add API for user code to register its own module code with to be accessed in YARA rules.
A plugin system that could be used by yarac and yara can be built upon this. (I am working on that.) Another enhancement that could be built upon this is bridge code to enable building modules in scripting languages.
