# Twistr — [](https://github.com/JuxhinDB/twistrs/actions/workflows/rust.yml)  [](https://docs.rs/twistrs/)  [](https://discord.gg/w8tksBQQq5)
> Twistr is a Domain name permutation and enumeration library powered by Rust. It aims to directly port the well-known [dnstwist](https://github.com/elceef/dnstwist) tool allowing for fast and flexible interfacing capabilities with the core libraries based on client's requirements.
## Quickstart
This is particularly helpful if you're from outside the Rust space and would like to get up and running quickly.
1. Install [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install)
2. `git clone https://github.com/JuxhinDB/twistrs.git`
3. `cd examples/twistrs-cli`
4. `cargo r -- github.com`
Keep in mind that this will not run with a release build and will be naturally slower, however it should allow you to explore some of the functionality.
## Usage
The core library is composed of the domain permutation module and the domain enrichment module that can be used individually or chained together.
The following is a boiled-down version of the [twistrs-cli example](examples/twistrs-cli/src/main.rs) that uses [tokio mpsc](https://docs.rs/tokio/0.2.22/tokio/sync/mpsc/index.html).
```rust
use twistrs::enrich::DomainMetadata;
use twistrs::permutate::Domain;
use tokio::sync::mpsc;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
let domain = Domain::new("google.com").unwrap();
let permutations = domain.all().unwrap();
let (tx, mut rx) = mpsc::channel(1000);
for permutation in permutations {
let domain_metadata = DomainMetadata::new(permutation.clone());
let mut tx = tx.clone();
tokio::spawn(async move
if let Err(_) = tx.send((permutation.clone(), domain_metadata.dns_resolvable().await)).await {
println!("received dropped");
return;
}
drop(tx);
});
}
drop(tx);
while let Some(i) = rx.recv().await {
println!("{:?}", i);
}
}
```
## Features
- Granular control over Permutation or Enrichment modules
+ Use specific permutation algorithms (e.g. homoglyphs)
+ Use specific data enrichment methods (e.g. DNS lookup)
- Concurrency out of the box
- Exceptionally fast end-to-end results
- Core library allowing easy extensions (i.e. CLI, API & streams)

## Frequently Asked Questions
Q: If I want to use a different set of dictionaries to the one provided out of the box by the libary, how can I achieve that?
A: Currently the library (for ease-of-use) bakes the dictionaries into the final binary through a build script. To customise this, you would need to update the [dictionary files](./twistrs/dictionaries/) and compile the library using `cargo b` or `cargo b --release`. You can also reference the library in your own Cargo.toml, pointing to a local copy.
Q: How does the cached GeoIP lookup work?
A: Currently requires the client to supply their own [`maxminddb`](https://docs.rs/maxminddb/0.15.0/maxminddb/struct.Reader.html) reader and dataset. Twistrs at this point in time
is mostly an auxillliary wrapper to streamline processing of the DomainMetadata results.
