When executing ZAP mapper ./lib/data/cwe-nist-mapping.csv can not be found about heimdall_tools HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi, odd bug at the moement - where the relative path for the data is not being set correct after the gem install. It works if I clone it and run it locally but I will have our guys look at it and see if we can resolve the bug which I think is in the .gemspec file or in the 'requires' for the data loading

from heimdall_tools.

We should take a look at the way we are loading our files from lib/

Statements like this: RESOURCE_DIR = Pathname.new(__FILE__).join('../../data') using relative paths can be dangerous and may not always grab the correct file since they have to do with invocation location.

Fixed in #42

Hey @Bialogs if am not mistaken RESOURCE_DIR = Pathname.new(__FILE__).join('../../data') goes by relative location of the source code ...not the invocation location... and the gem does run from any location with this code...

if you still think it should be changed what do you think about
RESOURCE_DIR = "#{File.dirname __dir__}/data" ?

from heimdall_tools.

__FILE__ should be the relative location to the particular file from the invocation location so you'd need to do a File.expand_path(__FILE__) to get the absolute location to where the gem is installed and then use that for the RESOURCE_DIR.

Not sure if converting to a Pathname object will do the same behavior as File#expand_path.

Since we are setting a RESOURCE_DIR it might make sense to include that as a constant in the same pattern as version.rb.

this issue fixed by #42;
Pathname.new method revolves the absolute path and hence works as a gem
