Basic Usage Instructions

Arguments must be provided to get the program to do anything., otherwise a usage error will be printed and program will exit.

The below example is for the Linux executable, but arguments are provided the same regardless of the platform.

./RightClickVirusTotal_CLI_Universal "VirusTotalAPIKey" "FilePath"

Ensure you replace the first argument, VirusTotalAPIKey, with your own API key and keep the quotation marks to ensure it is passed as a string. Then the second argument, FilePath, should be the whole path to the file, again also in quotes.

For example on Linux:

./RightClickVirusTotal_CLI_Universal "0010101010101abcdefq" "/home/smp/Documents/RightClickVirusTotal/realvirus.txt"

Current Issues

  • None known.

Build Instructions using PyInstaller

  1. Make sure you have PyInstaller installed. If not, you can install it using pip by running the following command: pip install pyinstaller

  2. Install other required dependencies through pip:

    • requests
    • colorama
  3. Open your terminal or command prompt.

  4. Navigate to the directory where RightClickVirusTotal.py is located.

  5. Run the following command to build the executable: pyinstaller --onefile RightClickVirusTotal_CLI_Universal.py

    This command instructs PyInstaller to create a single executable file that contains your program and its dependencies.

  6. Wait for PyInstaller to finish the build process.

  7. Once the build process is complete, you will find a new dist directory in the same location as your program file.

  8. Inside the dist directory, you will find the executable file.
