# [How to Make a Subdomain Scanner in Python](https://www.thepythoncode.com/article/make-subdomain-scanner-python)
2+
To run this:
3+
- `pip3 install -r requirements.txt`
4+
- To run the fast subdomain scanner:
5+
```
6+
python fast_subdomain_scanner.py --help
7+
```
8+
**Output:**
9+
```
10+
usage: fast_subdomain_scanner.py [-h] [-l WORDLIST] [-t NUM_THREADS] domain
11+
12+
Faster Subdomain Scanner using Threads
13+
14+
positional arguments:
15+
domain Domain to scan for subdomains without protocol (e.g
16+
without 'http://' or 'https://')
17+
18+
optional arguments:
19+
-h, --help show this help message and exit
20+
-l WORDLIST, --wordlist WORDLIST
21+
File that contains all subdomains to scan, line by
22+
line. Default is subdomains.txt
23+
-t NUM_THREADS, --num-threads NUM_THREADS
24+
Number of threads to use to scan the domain. Default
25+
is 10
26+
```
27+
- If you want to scan hackthissite.org for subdomains using only 10 threads with a word list of 100 subdomains (`subdomains.txt`):
28+
```
29+
python fast_subdomain_scanner.py hackthissite.org -l subdomains.txt -t 10
30+
```
31+
After a while, it **outputs:**
32+
```
33+
[+] Discovered subdomain: http://mail.hackthissite.org
34+
[+] Discovered subdomain: http://www.hackthissite.org
35+
[+] Discovered subdomain: http://forum.hackthissite.org
36+
[+] Discovered subdomain: http://admin.hackthissite.org
37+
[+] Discovered subdomain: http://stats.hackthissite.org
38+
[+] Discovered subdomain: http://forums.hackthissite.org
39+
```
40+
