Net::Whois::Parser - module for parsing whois information
SYNOPSIS
use Net::Whois::Parser;
my $info = parse_whois( domain => $domain );
my $info = parse_whois( raw => $whois_raw_text, domain => $domain );
my $info = parse_whois( raw => $whois_raw_text, server => $whois_server );
$info = {
nameservers => [
{ domain => 'ns.example.com', ip => '123.123.123.123' },
{ domain => 'ns.example.com' },
],
emails => [ 'admin@example.com' ],
domain => 'example.com',
somefield1 => 'value',
somefield2 => [ 'value', 'value2' ],
...
};
# Your own parsers
sub my_parser {
my ( $text ) = @_;
return {
nameservers => [
{ domain => 'ns.example.com', ip => '123.123.123.123' },
{ domain => 'ns.example.com' },
],
emails => [ 'admin@example.com' ],
somefield => 'value',
somefield2 => [ 'value', 'value2' ],
};
}
$Net::Whois::Parser::PARSERS{'whois.example.com'} = \&my_parser;
$Net::Whois::Parser::PARSERS{'DEFAULT'} = \&my_default_parser;
# If you want to get all values of fields from all whois answers
$Net::Whois::Parser::GET_ALL_VALUES = 1;
# example
# Net::Whois::Raw returns 2 answers
$raw = [ { text => 'key: value1' }, { text => 'key: value2'}];
$data = parse_whois(raw => $raw);
# If flag is off parser returns
# { key => 'value2' };
# If flag is on parser returns
# { key => [ 'value1', 'value2' ] };
# If you want to convert some field name to another:
$Net::Whois::Parser::FIELD_NAME_CONV{'Domain name'} = 'domain';
# If you want to format some fields.
# I think it is very useful for dates.
$Net::Whois::Parser::HOOKS{'expiration_date'} = [ \&format_date ];
