textract, one of manspider’s upstream dependencies, is no longer being updated. For this reason, you may run into problems when installing with pip. The recommended installation method is now Docker
docker run --rm -v ./manspider:/root/.manspider blacklanternsecurity/manspider --help Note there is also a helper script manspider.sh which will automatically mount volumes for manspider’s loot and logs directories, making it a bit more convenient to run:
./manspider.sh --help PDFDOCXXLSXPPTX(Optional) Install these dependencies to add additional file parsing capability:
# for images (png, jpeg)
$ sudo apt install tesseract-ocr
# for legacy document support (.doc)
$ sudo apt install antiword Install manspider (please be patient, this can take a while):
csc -optimize loader.cs NOTE: matching files are automatically downloaded into $HOME/.manspider/loot! (-n to disable)
