3. Set SUPPORTED_OS = ["linux"] or ["linux", "macos"] appropriately

5. Test install and run locally before submitting

Issues or PRs that don't follow the title format may be closed without review.

Installation

One-liner (recommended)

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Z4nzu/hackingtool/master/install.sh | sudo bash

This handles everything — installs prerequisites, clones the repo, sets up a venv, and creates the hackingtool command.

Manual install

git clone https://github.com/Z4nzu/hackingtool.git
cd hackingtool
sudo python3 install.py   # detects local source, copies instead of re-cloning

Then run:

hackingtool

Docker

Step 1 — Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/Z4nzu/hackingtool.git
cd hackingtool

Step 2 — Build the image

docker build -t hackingtool .

First build takes a few minutes (Kali base + apt packages). Subsequent builds are fast thanks to BuildKit layer caching.

Step 3 — Run

Option A — Direct (no Compose):

docker run -it --rm hackingtool

Option B — With Docker Compose (recommended):

# Start in background
docker compose up -d

# Open an interactive shell
docker exec -it hackingtool bash

# Then launch the tool inside the container
python3 hackingtool.py

Option C — Dev mode (live source mount, changes reflected without rebuild):

docker compose --profile dev up
docker exec -it hackingtool-dev bash

Stopping

docker compose down        # stop and remove container
docker compose down -v     # also remove the tools data volume

Requirements

• Python 3.10+
• Linux (Kali, Parrot, Ubuntu) or macOS
• Go 1.21+ (for nuclei, ffuf, amass, httpx, katana, dalfox)
• Ruby (for haiti)

pip install -r requirements.txt
