## Installation

Available in [Hex](https://hex.pm/packages/censys_ex), the package can be installed by adding `censys_ex` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:

```elixir
def deps do
  [
    {:censys_ex, "~> 2.0.1"}
  ]
end
```

## Setup

via Application variables

```elixir
config :censys_ex,
  api_id: "*****",
  api_key: "*****"

# ...

CensysEx.API.client()
```

or directly

```elixir
CensysEx.API.client("*****", "*****")
```

API secrets can be found [here](https://search.censys.io/account/api)

## Hosts

### View a host

View all the data on an IP at a given time.

```elixir
CensysEx.Hosts.view(client, "127.0.0.1")

# Lookup the host as it was at a certain time
CensysEx.Hosts.view(client, "127.0.0.1", ~U[2021-06-07 12:53:27.450073Z])
```

### Get host names

Returns a stream of names for that IP.

```elixir
iex(1)> CensysEx.Hosts.names(client, "127.0.0.1") |>
...(1)> Stream.take(25) |>
...(1)> Enum.to_list()
["example.com", "foo.net", ...]
```

### Search hosts

Search returns a stream of results using the cursors provided by the API.

```elixir
iex(1)> CensysEx.Hosts.search(client, "same_service(service_name: SSH and not port: 22)") |>
...(1)> Stream.take(25) |>
...(1)> Stream.map(&Map.get(&1, "ip")) |>
...(1)> Enum.to_list()
["10.0.0.6", "10.2.0.1", ...]
```

### Aggregate hosts

Aggregate data about hosts on the internet.

```elixir
CensysEx.Hosts.aggregate(client, "location.country_code", "services.service_name: MEMCACHED")

CensysEx.Hosts.aggregate(client, "location.country_code", "services.service_name: MEMCACHED", 10)
```

### Diff hosts

Diff hosts at given times

```elixir
# diff the current host with it self 🤷
CensysEx.Hosts.diff(client, "8.8.8.8")

# diff two hosts
CensysEx.Hosts.diff(client, "8.8.8.8", "1.1.1.1")

# diff a host with itself at a time in the past
CensysEx.Hosts.diff(client, "8.8.8.8", nil, ~U[2021-06-07 12:53:27.450073Z])

# diff two hosts in the past
CensysEx.Hosts.diff(client, "8.8.8.8", "8.8.4.4" ~U[2021-06-07 12:53:27.450073Z], ~U[2021-06-07 12:53:27.450073Z])
```

### Get hosts that present a cert

```elixir
CensysEx.Certs.get_hosts_by_cert(client, "fb444eb8e68437bae06232b9f5091bccff62a768ca09e92eb5c9c2cf9d17c426")
|> Stream.take(25)
