The binwalk python module can be used by any python script to programmatically perform binwalk scans and obtain the results of those scans.

The classes, methods and objects in the binwalk modules are documented via pydoc, including examples, so those interested in using the binwalk module are encouraged to look there. However, several common usage examples are provided here to help jump-start development efforts.

Binwalk Scripting

=================

Each of binwalk's features (signature scans, entropy analysis, etc) are implemented as separate modules. These modules can be invoked via `binwalk.scan`.

In fact, the binwalk command line utility can be duplicated nearly entirely with just two lines of code:

```python

import binwalk

binwalk.scan()

```

The `scan` function accepts both args and kwargs, which correspond to the normal command line options accepted by the binwalk command line utility, providing a large amount of freedom in how you choose to specify binwalk options (if none are specified, `sys.argv` is used by default).

For example, to execute a signature scan, you at the very least have to specify the `--signature` option, as wel
