# go-fuzz-headers
 | 
						|
This repository contains various helper functions for go fuzzing. It is mostly used in combination with [go-fuzz](https://github.com/dvyukov/go-fuzz), but compatibility with fuzzing in the standard library will also be supported. Any coverage guided fuzzing engine that provides an array or slice of bytes can be used with go-fuzz-headers.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Usage
 | 
						|
Using go-fuzz-headers is easy. First create a new consumer with the bytes provided by the fuzzing engine:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```go
 | 
						|
import (
 | 
						|
	fuzz "github.com/AdaLogics/go-fuzz-headers"
 | 
						|
)
 | 
						|
data := []byte{'R', 'a', 'n', 'd', 'o', 'm'}
 | 
						|
f := fuzz.NewConsumer(data)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This creates a `Consumer` that consumes the bytes of the input as it uses them to fuzz different types.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
After that, `f` can be used to easily create fuzzed instances of different types. Below are some examples:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Structs
 | 
						|
One of the most useful features of go-fuzz-headers is its ability to fill structs with the data provided by the fuzzing engine. This is done with a single line:
 | 
						|
```go
 | 
						|
type Person struct {
 | 
						|
    Name string
 | 
						|
    Age  int
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
p := Person{}
 | 
						|
// Fill p with values based on the data provided by the fuzzing engine:
 | 
						|
err := f.GenerateStruct(&p)
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This includes nested structs too. In this example, the fuzz Consumer will also insert values in `p.BestFriend`:
 | 
						|
```go
 | 
						|
type PersonI struct {
 | 
						|
    Name       string
 | 
						|
    Age        int
 | 
						|
    BestFriend PersonII
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
type PersonII struct {
 | 
						|
    Name string
 | 
						|
    Age  int
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
p := PersonI{}
 | 
						|
err := f.GenerateStruct(&p)
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If the consumer should insert values for unexported fields as well as exported, this can be enabled with:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```go
 | 
						|
f.AllowUnexportedFields()
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
...and disabled with:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```go
 | 
						|
f.DisallowUnexportedFields()
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### Other types:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Other useful APIs:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```go
 | 
						|
createdString, err := f.GetString() // Gets a string
 | 
						|
createdInt, err := f.GetInt() // Gets an integer
 | 
						|
createdByte, err := f.GetByte() // Gets a byte
 | 
						|
createdBytes, err := f.GetBytes() // Gets a byte slice
 | 
						|
createdBool, err := f.GetBool() // Gets a boolean
 | 
						|
err := f.FuzzMap(target_map) // Fills a map
 | 
						|
createdTarBytes, err := f.TarBytes() // Gets bytes of a valid tar archive
 | 
						|
err := f.CreateFiles(inThisDir) // Fills inThisDir with files
 | 
						|
createdString, err := f.GetStringFrom("anyCharInThisString", ofThisLength) // Gets a string that consists of chars from "anyCharInThisString" and has the exact length "ofThisLength"
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Most APIs are added as they are needed.
