NAME

ParseUtil::Domain - Utility for parsing a domain name into its constituent components.

SYNOPSIS

use ParseUtil::Domain ':parse';

  my $processed = parse_domain("somedomain.com");
  $processed == { 
      domain => 'somedomain',
      domain_ace => 'somedomain',
      zone => 'com',
      zone_ace => 'com'
  }

DESCRIPTION

Just another tool for parsing domain names. This module makes use of the data provided by the Public Suffix List (http://publicsuffix.org/list/) to parse tlds. For completeness it tries to provide the respective puny encoded and decoded domain and tld part of a domain name. This includes proper handling of the LATIN SHARP S which is now allowed by DENIC eG (.de).
