syft/syft/lib.go

/*
A "one-stop-shop" for helper utilities for all major functionality provided by child packages of the syft library.

Here is what the main execution path for syft does:

	1. Parse a user image string to get a stereoscope image.Source object
	2. Invoke all catalogers to catalog the image, adding discovered packages to a single catalog object
	3. Invoke a single presenter to show the contents of the catalog

A Source object encapsulates the image object to be cataloged and the user options (catalog all layers vs. squashed layer),
providing a way to inspect paths and file content within the image. The Source object, not the image object, is used
throughout the main execution path. This abstraction allows for decoupling of what is cataloged (a docker image, an OCI
image, a filesystem, etc) and how it is cataloged (the individual catalogers).

Similar to the cataloging process, Linux distribution identification is also performed based on what is discovered within the image.
