Emails Scraper

emails is a Rust-based command-line tool for scraping emails from websites. It takes a URL as input, searches the website for email addresses, and prints the results to the console. The tool offers several features, including multi-threading, recursion depth, timeout handling, and strict domain matching.

Features

• Automatically append http:// or https:// if the protocol is missing.
• Recursively scrape emails from the provided URL.
• Print emails matching the URL domain in green; others are printed in white.
• Configurable recursion depth and number of threads.
• Timeout handling for long-running scrapes.
• Optional strict mode to only print emails matching the provided domain.
• Progress tracking and real-time output of results.

Usage

Basic Usage

./emails

Options

• -d, --depth <DEPTH>: Set the depth of recursion. Default is 2.
• -t, --threads <THREADS>: Set the number of threads to use. Default is 4.
• --timeout <SECONDS>: Set the timeout for the scrape. Default is 60 seconds.
• --strict: Only print emails that match the domain of the provided URL.

./emails https://example.com
