[FEATURE] Refactoring the project to be built from source

[D3vil0p3r]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently the solution can be installed by Install.sh that is specific only for Debian-based systems (just look the install of dependencies).

Could you please refactor the project in order to be built from source for example by leveraging on pyproject.toml or similar things? For example using resources like And add in the documentation all the needed separated build and runtime dependencies so the project can be easily packaged for different Linux distros?

@benpturner can you give a look to it?

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. We’ll have a look into this. Feel free to provide a PR or Suggested fix that we can look at too.

@benpturner A good approach could be to use PEP517 by using pyproject.toml file so you can deploy python dependencies directly without using pip install in Install.sh. I don't have so much experience on it, I don't knoow if you have it.

Furthermore, I have a question. Install.sh manages the system dependencies install by:

apt-get install -y screen python3 python3-dev python3-pip build-essential mingw-w64-tools mingw-w64 mingw-w64-x86-64-dev mingw-w64-i686-dev mingw-w64-common espeak graphviz mono-complete apt-transport-https vim nano libpq-dev curl sudo sqlite3 binutils unzip
apt-get install -y python3.8-dev python3-distutils python3-lib2to3 python3.7-dev python3.7

Can you report me which of them are build dependencies (needed only for building process, that can be removed once PoshC2 is installed) and which are runtime dependencies (dependencies needed for PoshC2 to run).
