README
A php library to look up the whois servers of a Top Level Domain.
About
This package facilitates the discovery of the authoritative WHOIS server for top level domains. There are two lists to source the WHOIS server info from; the IANA TLD list and the Public Suffix List.
This project adheres to a code of conduct. By participating in this project and its community, you are expected to uphold this code.
Installation
Install this package as a dependency using Composer.
composer require mallardduck/whois-server-list
Usage
Simply initialize a locator for the list you'd like to use.
use MallardDuck\WhoisDomainList\IanaServerLocator; $ianaLocator = new IanaServerLocator(); echo $ianaLocator->getWhoisServer('aarp'); // whois.nic.aarp
Updating
The lists used by this package generate using the script in the ./generator directory.
This script will download a fresh copy of the list, then look up every TLDs whois server.
To update the list one would simply: clone this repo, run the generator, commit the changes and send a Pull Request.
