WhoDis uses the existing Wappalyzer NodeJS package to detect site software from the command line.

$ whodis --help
Usage: whodis [OPTION] URLs...
Discover software used by websites

-V, --verbose    Show additional messages for tracking execution.
-q, --quiet      Suppress output, ignoring whether --verbose was issued.
-d, --debug      Enable debug output, ignoring whether --quiet was issued.
-f, --file       Read domains from the specified text file.
-j, --json       Save data to the specified JSON file
-h, --help       Show this output
-v, --version    Show command version

Why?

I needed to analyze more than one site at a time to build reports, and this appeared to be the fastest method forward.

Currently whodis is only able to export to a JSON file, though I will be re-adding a CSV export at some point.

Running

If you would like to directly run whodis from a local copy of the source, you may interact with it as follows:

$ node src/whodis.js <URL>
