Issue #7: Database Update Implementation

Priority: High
Estimated Time: 4 days

Detailed Description:
Implement the database update mechanism that fetches the latest malware signatures from free, reliable sources and updates the local database.

Implementation Details:

  1. Implement src/cli/update.rs:

  2. Update src/cli/mod.rs:

  3. Update src/main.rs to add the update commands:

  4. Create a GitHub workflow file for scheduled database updates in .github/workflows/update_signatures.yml:
    Acceptance Criteria:

  • Database updates can be performed via the CLI
  • Update mechanism fetches signatures from GitHub, with fallbacks to alternate sources
  • Updates handle incremental changes to minimize bandwidth
  • Error handling covers common scenarios (server unavailable, network issues)
  • Schedule command provides clear guidance for setting up automatic updates
  • Update command shows clear summary of changes (new/updated signatures)
  • GitHub workflow automates regular database updates
  • Database sources are entirely free and reliable in the long term
