Well, hello there! A brief introduction
I just reciently got my hands on the Ducky, and still learning to use it, but I can already see the potential of it.
Looking for examples I stumbled upon the wiki list that had some examples, and some "easy scripts generators", which was really nice.
But i got myself thinking: Where are all the contributions? I mean, if this product has been out for some time, there sure must be a long list of community-made scripts avaliable, right?
Surprisingly, I didn't found much.
Which led me to start creating what I now present here as a Work-In-Progress project, hoping to hear the community's response to it.
The idea
A CLI which will serve as a manager to both, your local scripts and the community ones.
It will keep track of all your scripts, allowing you to sort them by the target OS -even by version of OS-, by name or by description, making it really easy to store dozens of scripts without losing your mind.
It will also keep track of community-sourced scripts, allowing you to browse them without even having them on your system, only downloading them when you decide to use them. You could search through thousands of scripts as easily as it is searching the local ones: By user, by OS, by effects...
How? Community repositories ,ala Linux... but on GitHub!
Any user could upload their own scripts to the repositories - from inside the manager! -, making them avaliable for anyone to use.
All scripts would be managed through a list of github repositories, which the program would automatically parse and update the local data for.
Any user could have their own repository, which any user could source from; but of course, there would be an official repository (or several) from which the program would get it's sources by default.
For bonus points, the Manager will - hopefully- also have:
Quick configuration of scripts: The manager will automatically let you edit the required parameters before encoding them. So, scripts that require a host to connect to, ports, emails, etc. will be easier and faster to use.
Automatic encode and loading: Encode any script and load them onto your SD card from inside the manager, with any avaliable keymap.
Multi-language: Designed to be translated, all strings used by the program is inside an easily editable file, for each language. Anyone could translate it to any language in less than a day.
Ducky flashing: Repositories also contain firmware for the ducky. Flash from inside the manager with any of them, without having to ever store them. Also, save a backup of your old firmware automatically. Because safety always comes first.
Integrated editor: Why have a program to manage your scripts and another to create them? Just code from inside the manager. With syntax recognition incorporated, of course! - not that the language is difficult anyways -.
Curent state
I have just started coding this today, in Golang.
It's already capable of managing hundreds of local scripts with no problem, so I'm pretty certain I'll have a Beta to publish for testing in not that much time - though I can't spend the day on it! -.
Of course the first version wont have all the planned features, but they will come, if the community wants it.
So that's it, basically. I'm here looking for thoughts and comments about it, so please feel free to express yourself about this idea!
I will update this post as I get things done - assuming you guys want it, of course. -
(Code is not publicly avaliable yet, will make it public with the first Alpha/Beta)
