Pown Script

Pown Script is a simple scripting environment. The key advantage of using Pown Script instead of Bash, Python, Perl, etc, is because all commands are executed within the same VM context (same process). Commands such as Pown Recon take advantage of this by keeping a global model of its graph, thus, removing the need to save into intermediate files upon each command execution.

Pown Script implements some some standard commands such as echo, sleep and even set. This is done for interoperability. Every pown script is also a valid bash script.

Quickstart

This tool is meant to be used as part of Pown.js but it can be invoked separately as an independent tool.

Install Pown first as usual:

$ npm install -g pown@latest

Invoke directly from Pown:

$ pown script

Otherwise, install this module locally from the root of your project:

$ npm install @pown/script --save

Once done, invoke pown cli:

$ ./node_modules/.bin/pown-cli script

You can also use the global pown to invoke the tool locally:

$ POWN_ROOT=. pown script
