Wordlist & ngram creation tool to crawl a given url or process a local file to create wordlists and/or ngrams (depending on flags given).

Usage Instructions:

• To create a simple wordlist from a specified url (will save deduplicated wordlist to url_spider.txt):
  • spider -url 'https://github.com/cyclone-github'
• To set url crawl url depth of 2 and create ngrams len 1-5, use flag "-crawl 2" and "-ngram 1-5"
  • spider -url 'https://github.com/cyclone-github' -crawl 2 -ngram 1-5
• To set a custom output file, use flag "-o filename"
  • spider -url 'https://github.com/cyclone-github' -o wordlist.txt
• To set a delay to keep from being rate-limited, use flag "-delay nth" where nth is time in milliseconds
  • spider -url 'https://github.com/cyclone-github' -delay 100
• To set a URL timeout, use flag "-timeout nth" where nth is time in seconds
  • spider -url 'https://github.com/cyclone-github' -timeout 2
• To create ngrams len 1-3 and sort output by frequency, use "-ngram 1-3" "-sort"
  • spider -url 'https://github.com/cyclone-github' -ngram 1-3 -sort
• To process a local text file, create ngrams len 1-3 and sort output by frequency
  • spider -file foobar.txt -ngram 1-3 -sort
• Run spider -help to see a list of all options

Compile from source:

• If you want the latest features, compiling from source is the best option since the release version may run several revisions behind the source code.
• This assumes you have Go and Git installed
  • git clone https://github.com/cyclone-github/spider.git # clone repo
  • cd spider # enter project directory
  • go mod init spider # initialize Go module (skips if go.mod exists)
  • go mod tidy # download dependencies
  • go build -ldflags="-s -w" . # compile binary in current directory
  • go install -ldflags="-s -w" . # compile binary and install to $GOPATH
• Compile from source code how-to:
  • https://github.com/cyclone-github/scripts/blob/main/intro_to_go.txt

Antivirus False Positives:

• Several antivirus programs on VirusTotal incorrectly detect compiled Go binaries as a false positive. This issue primarily affects the Windows executable binary, but is not limited to it. If this concerns you, I recommend carefully reviewing the source code, then proceed to compile the binary yourself.
• Uploading your compiled binaries to https://virustotal.com and leaving an up-vote or a comment would be helpful as well.
