Usage mode description

PywerView can be used in two different ways:

CLI tool

PywerView can be directly launched from the command line interface, by issuing ./pywerview.py from the working directory, or pywerview if you installed it via setuptools. This is the basic way to use it: the relevant function will be called, and the result will be printed on stdout.

Python library

The CLI tool is just a wrapper around the internal API of PywerView. You can develop your own scripts using this API, for more advanced usage (for example, if you wanted to develop something like BloodHound or PingCastle in Python).
