Sherlock v0.16.0

[ppfeister]

What's Changed

Most users should see a significant reduction in false positives (on an ongoing basis) after updating to this release. Nothing is ever perfect (regional differences, etc), but noise should be reduced by a notable margin.

• 📦 Community package now available on Debian @Nilsonfsilva
• 📦 Community package now available on Ubuntu @Nilsonfsilva
• ✨ Automatic filtering of false-positive prone sites by way of automatic testing on upstream @ppfeister
• ✨ --json flag overloaded to allow use of pull request numbers as manifest URIs (Overload --json to fetch via PR number #2356) @bytexenon
• ✨ --no-txt flag added to disable automatic txt file output (functionality may change later) (A flag to disable creation of a txt file #2263) @ntexe
• ✨ Basic PEP 561 compliance with support for mypy static type checking (Comply with PEP 561 #2277) @ppfeister
• ‼️ Deprecated support for now-EOL Python 3.8 and 3.9 (now ^3.10) @ppfeister

Hi @ppfeister,
I’ve used Sherlock often for OSINT and really appreciate the project. Since it’s Hacktoberfest, I’d love to contribute — is there anything open that I can help with?

[gtkacz]

@HWKDS generally you can check out the "good first issue" tag in FOSS repos to start contributing easily!

Hello @matheusfelipeog,

There seem to be a lot of PRs piled up requesting for addition of new sites and many of then have been outdated/endpoints have changed. Would you like me to go through them all and come up with a single PR to add those sites that are feasible at this moment?

Thanks!

Hello @matheusfelipeog,

There seem to be a lot of PRs piled up requesting for addition of new sites and many of then have been outdated/endpoints have changed. Would you like me to go through them all and come up with a single PR to add those sites that are feasible at this moment?

Thanks!

If you have the time for it and it doesn’t inconvenience you, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

If possible, please submit them as separate PRs, keeping a reference to the original outdated or broken ones instead of combining everything into a single PR.

~ I think for more recent PRs, instead of creating a new one, you can simply suggest that the author make the necessary updates.

[akh7177]

Sure, and in case I find that any PR is perfect and can be merged, is it alright if I tag you in the comments?

[matheusfelipeog]

Yes. You can mention any of the maintainers. We’ll review everything as soon as possible.

yaaayy, thank you for update !

¿Do you have Sherlock APK file? I need it

[lIlIcespedes]

Please

[MR-VL]

There is no official Sherlock APK file. There may be other people offering one however that is not an official release by this project.
