OPTIONS
*
marks required options.
Main options
- --action=s
-
Default value:
"grep"
Valid values:
["list_cpan","list_installed","grep","stat"]
- --arg-json=s
-
See
--arg
. - --arg=s@
-
Can be specified multiple times.
- --color=s
-
When to highlight search string/matching pattern with color.
Default value:
"auto"
Valid values:
["never","always","auto"]
- --detail
-
Display more information when listing modules/result.
When listing installed modules (`-l`), this means also returning a wordlist's language.
When returning grep result, this means also returning wordlist name.
- --lang=s@
-
Only include wordlists of certain language(s).
By convention, language code is the first subnamespace of a wordlist module, e.g. WordList::EN::* for English, WordList::FR::* for French, and so on. Wordlist modules which do not follow this convention (e.g. WordList::Password::* or WordList::PersonName::*) are not included.
Can be specified multiple times.
- --langs-json=s
-
Only include wordlists of certain language(s) (JSON-encoded).
See
--lang
. - --lcpan
-
Use local CPAN mirror first when available (for -L).
- --len=s
- --max-len=s
- --min-len=s
- --no-ignore-case
- --num=s, -n
-
Return (at most) this number of words (0 = unlimited).
Default value:
0
- --or
-
Match any word in query instead of the default "all".
- --random, -r
-
Pick random words.
If set to true, then streaming will be turned off. All words will be gathered first, then words will be chosen randomly from the gathered list.
- --wordlist=s@, -w
-
Select one or more wordlist modules.
Can be specified multiple times.
- --wordlists-json=s
-
Select one or more wordlist modules (JSON-encoded).
See
--wordlist
. - -l
-
List installed WordList::* modules.
See
--action
. - -L
-
List WordList::* modules on CPAN.
See
--action
. - -s
-
Show statistics contained in the wordlist modules.
See
--action
.
Configuration options
- --config-path=s
-
Set path to configuration file.
Can be specified multiple times.
- --config-profile=s
-
Set configuration profile to use.
- --no-config
-
Do not use any configuration file.
Environment options
Logging options
- --debug
-
Shortcut for --log-level=debug.
- --log-level=s
-
Set log level.
- --quiet
-
Shortcut for --log-level=error.
- --trace
-
Shortcut for --log-level=trace.
- --verbose
-
Shortcut for --log-level=info.
Output options
- --format=s
-
Choose output format, e.g. json, text.
Default value:
undef
- --json
-
Set output format to json.
- --naked-res
-
When outputing as JSON, strip result envelope.
Default value:
0
By default, when outputing as JSON, the full enveloped result is returned, e.g.:
[200,"OK",[1,2,3],{"func.extra"=>4}]
The reason is so you can get the status (1st element), status message (2nd element) as well as result metadata/extra result (4th element) instead of just the result (3rd element). However, sometimes you want just the result, e.g. when you want to pipe the result for more post-processing. In this case you can use `--naked-res` so you just get:
[1,2,3]
- --page-result
-
Filter output through a pager.
- --view-result
-
View output using a viewer.
Other options
COMPLETION
The script comes with a companion shell completer script (_wordlist) for this script.
bash
To activate bash completion for this script, put:
complete -C _wordlist wordlist
in your bash startup (e.g. ~/.bashrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.
It is recommended, however, that you install modules using cpanm-shcompgen which can activate shell completion for scripts immediately.
tcsh
To activate tcsh completion for this script, put:
complete wordlist 'p/*/`wordlist`/'
in your tcsh startup (e.g. ~/.tcshrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.
It is also recommended to install shcompgen (see above).
other shells
For fish and zsh, install shcompgen as described above.
CONFIGURATION FILE
This script can read configuration files. Configuration files are in the format of IOD, which is basically INI with some extra features.
By default, these names are searched for configuration filenames (can be changed using --config-path
): ~/.config/wordlist.conf, ~/wordlist.conf, or /etc/wordlist.conf.
All found files will be read and merged.
To disable searching for configuration files, pass --no-config
.
You can put multiple profiles in a single file by using section names like [profile=SOMENAME]
or [SOMESECTION profile=SOMENAME]
. Those sections will only be read if you specify the matching --config-profile SOMENAME
.
You can also put configuration for multiple programs inside a single file, and use filter program=NAME
in section names, e.g. [program=NAME ...]
or [SOMESECTION program=NAME]
. The section will then only be used when the reading program matches.
Finally, you can filter a section by environment variable using the filter env=CONDITION
in section names. For example if you only want a section to be read if a certain environment variable is true: [env=SOMEVAR ...]
or [SOMESECTION env=SOMEVAR ...]
. If you only want a section to be read when the value of an environment variable has value equals something: [env=HOSTNAME=blink ...]
or [SOMESECTION env=HOSTNAME=blink ...]
. If you only want a section to be read when the value of an environment variable does not equal something: [env=HOSTNAME!=blink ...]
or [SOMESECTION env=HOSTNAME!=blink ...]
. If you only want a section to be read when an environment variable contains something: [env=HOSTNAME*=server ...]
or [SOMESECTION env=HOSTNAME*=server ...]
. Note that currently due to simplistic parsing, there must not be any whitespace in the value being compared because it marks the beginning of a new section filter or section name.
