Polyswarm Customer CLI

A CLI tool for interacting with the PolySwarm Customer APIs.

Supports Python 2.7 and greater.

Installation

From PyPI:

pip install polyswarm

From source:

python setup.py install

If you want yara validation (optional):

pip install -e .[yara]

If you get an error about a missing package named wheel, that means your version of pip or setuptools is too old. You need pip >= 19.0 and setuptools >= 40.8.0. To update pip, run pip install -U pip. To update setuptools, run pip install -U setuptools

Usage

Command line client

See the Polyswarm Customer CLI documentation for usage guidance.

Using as a package

The polyswarm-cli package is built on top of the polyswarm-api package, and it includes a set of higher-level methods that facilitates the usage of parallelism when making requests to the api. We provide a class Polyswarm that extends from PolyswarmAPI and includes these methods. For example:

from polyswarm.polyswarm import Polyswarm
api = Polyswarm('my-api-key')
results = api.search_hashes(['e182cdfd5e7463d11f5e7bc49b4377ab25e58b9ff04266df3c34e6261c7b0df9',
                             'd80a1e42791d17cbce8d053afccd1dae7fb9f615676cb81a3a1699e86c344cb8',
                             '275a021bbfb6489e54d471899f7db9d1663fc695ec2fe2a2c4538aabf651fd0f'])
for result in results:
    print(result.id)

Each hash lookup is done in a different thread using a ThreadPoolExecutor and results are yielded as they come in in the same order as in the input. All functionality that is available in the command line tool is also available for developers through this class.
