As the time of writing, the maintainer of this repo has advanced knowledge in PowerShell and not Python. Although it is entirely doable in Python, it is just matter of comfortability of the maintainer.
PowerShell although is the primary scripting language used in this repo, there is undoubtedly a need for Python, especially the use of HTML parser.
This is because PowerShell does not have a built-in HTML parser, and the only
way to do it is by using the Invoke-WebRequest
cmdlet. However, this
cmdlet is not suitable for this repo as it is not able to parse the HTML code
properly, and there is no modules that could do such for ability to run this
script cross-platform. Therefore, Python is used to parse the HTML code with the
help of the BeautifulSoup
library.
All responses made in Python will be returned as JSON, and PowerShell will do the rest of the task.
Note
Currently maintainer found a module on PowerShell that could parse HTML easily. At the moment, it was being checked for cross platform compatibility.
If the module can be used on any platform, Python will be dropped from language of choice.
