Download from search not documented #42

Please describe the Search Intelligence / Download functionality in the help for the -si and -dl.

Because the VirusTotal Top N Downloader failed, I used this package from PyPI (version 3.1.3.7). But I only found this capability when searching issues (#14); it is not documented in the help.

My draft help strings are below.

https://github.com/doomedraven/VirusTotalApi/blob/master/vt/vt.py#L3224 Search query, can be paired with the download option. Search help can be found here - https://www.virustotal.com/intelligence/help/

https://github.com/doomedraven/VirusTotalApi/blob/master/vt/vt.py#L3320 The md5/sha1/sha256 hash of the file(s) you want to download. Can be space separated list of hashes to download, will save with hash as name. Alternatively provide txt file with .txt extension, with hashes, or hash and type, one by line, for example: hash,pcap or only hash. When paired with the search-intelligence option, downloads hashes returned from the search.

doomedraven commented 4 years ago

would this works?

opt.add_argument('-si', '--search-intelligence', action='store_true', help='Search query, help can be found here - https://www.virustotal.com/intelligence/help/, if you specify -dl option it will download all matched hashes')
