python-Wappalyzer

Python implementation of the Wappalyzer web application detection utility.

Install

$ pip install python-Wappalyzer

Require Python3.6 or later.

Usage

The API exposes two objects: Wappalyzer.Wappalyzer and Wappalyzer.WebPage.

>>> from Wappalyzer import Wappalyzer, WebPage

First create a WebPage. The following code creates a webpage with the request module.

>>> webpage = WebPage.new_from_url('http://example.com')

Then analyze it with Wappalyzer.

>>> wappalyzer = Wappalyzer.latest()
>>> wappalyzer.analyze(webpage)
{'Docker', 'Azure CDN', 'Amazon Web Services', 'Amazon ECS'}

To download and use the latest technologies file from AliasIO/wappalyzer repository, create the Wappalyzer driver with the update=True parameter.

>>> wappalyzer = Wappalyzer.latest(update=True)

The Wappalyzer object exposes more methods that returns metatada for the detected technologies.

>>> wappalyzer.analyze_with_categories(webpage)
{'Amazon ECS': {'categories': ['IaaS']},
 'Amazon Web Services': {'categories': ['PaaS']},
 'Azure CDN': {'categories': ['CDN']},
 'Docker': {'categories': ['Containers']}}

>>> webpage = WebPage.new_from_url('http://wordpress-example.com')
>>> wappalyzer.analyze_with_versions_and_categories(webpage)
{'Font Awesome': {'categories': ['Font scripts'], 'versions': ['5.4.2']},
 'Google Font API': {'categories': ['Font scripts'], 'versions': []},
 'MySQL': {'categories': ['Databases'], 'versions': []},
 'Nginx': {'categories': ['Web servers', 'Reverse proxies'], 'versions': []},
 'PHP': {'categories': ['Programming languages'], 'versions': ['5.6.40']},
 'WordPress': {'categories': ['CMS', 'Blogs'], 'versions': ['5.4.2']},
 'Yoast SEO': {'categories': ['SEO'], 'versions': ['14.6.1']}}
