Radare2 Wiki

The goal of this wiki is to make a searchable collection of documents which can be used to find various use cases and help regarding using r2. This is a live wiki and the goal is to updated frequently. If you have a tip, use case or plugin you would like to suggest, either create an issue, or tweet to me at @securisec

This wiki can be used either from the online version, local webapp or from the r2 shell.

Make sure to update the local version everytime before using. The wiki is updated frequently

Allow some time for the search to finish indexing.

Update local installation

git pull origin master from inside the repo directory.

From r2 shell

Directions can be found in the r2wiki.py
In order for this to work, you need a local copy of the wiki. You can get it from github
The argument supports regex and the output is in less format
Because the output is using less, you can highlight/search using / or show only matching lines by using &
/path/to/repo/r2wiki.py needs to be absolute path
This can be accessed multiple ways.
- Method 1: Set an alias in your ~/.radare2rc file
```
echo '$'wiki="#"'!'"pipe python /path/to/repo/r2wiki.py" >> ~/.radare2rc
```
- Invoke as $wiki arg
- Method 2: Set an alias from inside r2 shell:
```
 $wiki=#!pipe python /path/to/r2wiki.py
```
- invoke as $wiki arg
- Method 3:
```
#!pipe python /path/to/repo/r2wiki.py
```
