Sherlock: Make Sherlock Available On PyPi

[x0rzkov]

Hi,

Would be nice to use the awesome project Sherlock as a library and document it ...

Cheers,

Yes, it would. There is work ongoing to update Sherlock so that it can be packaged like a normal Python module. This will allow it to be placed on PyPi. But, it is not done yet.

Here is a good example of modularity https://github.com/iojw/socialscan

I started to do it https://github.com/x0rzkov/sherlock but it sounds that you are further in the task.

Do you need some help ?

Cheers,

Umm... What is this technique that you are using with socialscan? 100% accurate? Sherlock has always been fragile in its detection of usernames. If you have a technique that is better, this could change everything!

[x0rzkov]

Yes, I agree with you, both are fragiles.... I worked on golang version of sherklock, https://github.com/tdh8316/Investigo, and false-positives are high. It was just to put you this repo to awareness... When do you think the refactoring gonna be ready ?

I might have something by the end of the month. Thanksgiving should give me some time to concentrate on this...it is hard to find time with work.
