WHOIS Rust

This is a WHOIS client library for Rust, inspired by https://github.com/hjr265/node-whois

Usage

You can make a servers.json file or copy one from https://github.com/hjr265/node-whois

This is a simple example of servers.json.

{
    "org": "whois.pir.org",
    "": "whois.ripe.net",
    "_": {
        "ip": {
            "host": "whois.arin.net",
            "query": "n + $addr\r\n"
        }
    }
}

Then, use the from_path (or from_string if your JSON data is in-memory) associated function to create a WhoIs instance.

extern crate whois_rust;

use whois_rust::WhoIs;

let whois = WhoIs::from_path("/path/to/servers.json").unwrap();

Use the lookup method and input a WhoIsLookupOptions instance to lookup a domain or an IP.

extern crate whois_rust;

use whois_rust::{WhoIs, WhoIsLookupOptions};

let whois = WhoIs::from_path("/path/to/servers.json").unwrap();

let result: String = whois.lookup(WhoIsLookupOptions::from_string("magiclen.org").unwrap()).unwrap();

Asynchronous APIs

You may want to use async APIs with your async runtime. This crate supports tokio, currently.

[dependencies.whois-rust]
version = "*"
features = ["tokio"]

After enabling the async feature, the from_path_async function and the lookup_async function are available.

Testing

git clone --recurse-submodules git://github.com/magiclen/whois-rust.git

cd whois-rust
