Native Installation

Install Termux

# NOTE_1!: if the user has errors with $ 'pkg update', for example due to country censorship,
# and/or due to the fact that Termux has not been updated for a long time on the user's device,
# then removing/installing Termux application will not help,
# since after deletion, old repositories remain on the user's device, the solution is:
$ termux-change-repo
# and choose to get updates (for all repo) from another mirror repository.

# Enter Termux home folder (i.e. just open Termux)
$ termux-setup-storage
$ pwd #/data/data/com.termux/files/home # default/home directory

# Install python3 and dependencies
$ apt update && pkg upgrade && pkg install python libcrypt libxml2 libxslt git
$ pip install --upgrade pip

# Clone the repository
$ git clone https://github.com/snooppr/snoop

# Enter the Snoop working directory  
$ cd ~/snoop  
# Install the 'requirements.txt' dependencies  
$ python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt  


# Optional↓
# To expand the terminal output in Termux (by default, 2k lines are displayed in the CLI),  
# for example, displaying the entire database of the option '--list-all [1/2]'  
# add the line 'terminal-transcript-rows=10000' to the file '~/.termux/termux.properties'  
# (the feature is available in Termux v0.114+).  
# Restart Termux.  

# The user can also launch the Snoop Project on the snoop command from anywhere in  
# the cli by creating an alias.  
$ cd && echo "alias snoop='cd && cd snoop && python snoop.py'" >> .bashrc && bash  

# The user can also run a quick check on the database of the site he is interested in,  
# without using the 'list-all' option, using the 'snoopcheck'command  
$ cd && echo "alias snoopcheck='cd && cd snoop && echo 2 | python snoop.py --list-all | grep -i'" >> .bashrc && bash  
# restart Termux.  
# At the end of the search work snoop on the request to select "with which to open the search results" select the default / system HTMLviewer.  

# NOTE_2!: to auto-open search results in an external web-browser:  
$ cd && pkg install termux-tools; echo 'allow-external-apps=true' >>.termux/termux.properties  

NOTE_3!: if the Android user has a flawed (that is, 12+) and breaks Termux, read the instructions for solving the problem here.
NOTE_4!: old patched python versions 3.7-3.11 from are supported termux_tur repo.

                        Specify a file with a list of users. Snoop will

  --pool , -p <digit>   Disable auto-optimization and set manually
                        search speed from 1 to 300 max. processes. By
                        default, high load on computer resources is used
                        in Quick mode, in other modes, moderate power consumption is
                        used. Too low or high value can significantly slow down the
                        operation of software. ~The calculated optimal value for this
                        device is displayed in 'snoop info', parameter
                        'Recommended pool', option [--version/-V]. This option
                        is suggested to be used 1) if the user has a
                        multi-core computer and RAM reserve or, on the contrary, weak,
                        rented VPS 2) It is recommended to speed up and slow down the
                        search in tandem with the option [--found-print/-f']
  --quick, -q           Fast and aggressive search mode. 
                        Does not reprocess failed resources,
                        which speeds up the search,
                        but also slightly increases Bad_raw.
                        Quick mode adapts to PC power,
                        does not print intermediate results,
                        is effective and is designed for Snoop full version

Example

# To search for just one user:
$ python3 snoop.py username1
# Or, for example, Cyrillic is supported:
$ python3 snoop.py олеся
# To search for a name containing a space:
$ python3 snoop.py "bob dylan"
$ python3 snoop.py bob_dylan
$ python3 snoop.py bob-dylan

# To search for one or more users:
$ python3 snoop.py username1 username2 username3 username4

# Search for multiple users - sorting the output of results by country;
# avoid long freezes on sites (more often the 'dead zone' depends on your ip-address);
# print only found accounts; save pages found
# of accounts locally; specify a file with a list of wanted accounts;
# connect to search for Snoop's extensible and updatable web-base:
$ python3 snoop.py -c -t 9 -f -S -u ~/file.txt -w

# Search for two usernames on two resources:
$ python snoop.py -s habr -s lichess chikamaria irina

# Get Snoop full version:
$ python snoop.py --donate

# 'ctrl-c' — abort search

Found accounts will be stored in '/storage/emulated/0/snoop/results/nicknames/*{txt|csv|html}'.
csv open in *office, field separator comma.

Destroy all search results - delete the directory '~/snoop/results'. or python snoop.py --autoclean

# Update Snoop to test new software features:
$ python3 snoop.py --update #requires a Git installation.
