Feature Request: Filter Daily Digest by File Type #4

Closed larsborn closed 6 years ago

larsborn commented 6 years ago

Hey, I currently got the use case where I am only interested in PE files and would like to consume new files from MalShare daily (also retroactively but this is probably a different story). I can - of course - download all files and delete those that are not interesting to me but this would probably waste a lot of your bandwidth.

So any chance that filtering the daily digest based on file type i.e. magic could be implemented?

Cheers Lars

Does the API call for listing hashes by type work for this? / GET /api.php?api_key=[API_KEY]&action=type&type=[FILE TYPE] /

Moved this output format also to JSON

Oh yes, it contains a field called F_TYPE that is PE32 for example. That would double the number of requests but at least save the bandwidth for the actual download. Looking forward to #7.

And thanks for the quick replies of course!!
