• Raw scan
• Resume a scan

Nmapthon2 allows to execute scans through several methods, but note that all of them require a NmapScanner instance. The main method for launching scans is scan(), which can be used to specify targets, ports, arguments and additional parameters. Below there is a quick example, but it is recommended to check the following sub-sections to know how to fully customize the Nmap scan.

Example

import nmapthon2 as nm2

scanner = nm2.NmapScanner()

# The program will stop until the Nmap scan finishes and will return an NmapScanResult object
result = scanner.scan('localhost')
