WHOIS21 is a simple and easy to use python package that lets you easily query whois
information of a domain.
Features
--------
### WHOIS
+ Query whois information of a TLD from various whois servers and parse the results.
+ Get the Registration Information of a domain from different RDAP servers and parse the
results.
+ Get IP information from ip-api.com.
+ Any idea? Feel free to
[open an issue](https://github.com/MPCodeWriter21/whois21/issues) or submit a pull
request.


Installation

Usage Examples
---------------
### CLI Examples
+ Example 1: Query whois information of google.com
```shell
# -v : verbose mode
whois21 -v google.com
```
+ Example 2: Query whois information of 3 domains and save the results to a directory
```shell
# -R : saves the results as raw text
# -np: avoids printing the results to the screen
# -o results: saves the results to `./results` directory
whois21 -R -np -o results google.com facebook.com pinterest.com
```
+ Example 3: Query whois information of 3 IPs and save the results to a directory
```shell
# Options explained in the examples above
whois21 -R -np -v -o results 1.1.1.1 157.240.20.174 64.91.226.82
```
+ Example 4: Query RDAP information of domains and IPs and save the results to a file
```shell
# -r: Gets the RDAP information of the queried domains and IPs
whois21 -np -o results -o results -r microsoft.com python.org 140.82.121.3 185.147.178.13
```
### Python Code Examples
+ Example 1: Query whois information of GitHub.com using WHOIS class.
```python
# First step is to import the package
import whois21
query = 'github.com'
# Second step is to create an instance of the WHOIS class
whois = whois21.WHOIS(query)
# Third step is to check if the operation was successful
if not whois.success:
print(whois.error)
exit()
# And basically you are done!
# Now you can print the results
import log21 # I use log21 to print the results in a cool way 8D
# Print the results in a nice way
# PPrint the dictionary
log21.pprint(whois.whois_data)
# Tree-Print the dictionary
log21.tree_print(whois.whois_data)
# Or you can print the results in as raw text
print(whois.raw.decode('utf-8'))
# Or you can access each part of the results individually
print(f'Creation date : {whois.creation_date}')
print(f'Expiration date : {whois.expires_date}')
print(f'Updated date : {whois.updated_date}')
```
