Sherlock-Deno 🕵️ - search users across 350+ websites


Screenshot Sherlock-Deno

Sherlock-Deno lets you quickly scan hundreds of websites for an username. 🕵️

This is an improved remake of the original project-sherlock by sdushantha.

🕵️ Why Sherlock-Deno?

  • Super fast
  • Extremely lightweight
  • Can be run without installation
  • Runs everywhere (Windows, macOS, Linux as executable/Docker/CLI command)
  • Runs all checks concurrently (asynchronous)
  • Cleverly looks through the response to determine if a user has an account (status code, redirect, page content)
  • Follows HTTP(S) redirections
  • Only uses the deno standard modules (colors, flags)
  • Secure by default (has only network permissions)

🤔 How to use?

🦕 Install using Deno (recommended ✔️)

Simply install deno on your system with a single command. You can find the offical command here.

With installation (recommended ✔️):

deno install --allow-net --reload --import-map=import_map.json -qfn sherlock https://deno.land/x/sherlock/cli.ts

Verify the installation by typing sherlock.

Without installation:

deno run --allow-net -q --import-map=import_map.json https://deno.land/x/sherlock/cli.ts

Done! 🎉 You now have a running version of Sherlock-Deno.

📦 Executable file

🐳 Docker

Start Docker and run:

docker run -it denoland/deno run --allow-net -q --import-map=import_map.json https://deno.land/x/sherlock/cli.ts

🔄 How to update the CLI?
