Lookup.Services

Developes are welcome to extend support to integrate their preferred Domain Registrar

Lookup.Services is a Node library which provides a high-level API to check the availability of the internet domain and price across supported registrars.

Getting Started

Installation

To use Lookup.Services in your project, run:

npm i @valexe-technologies/lookup.services

or

yarn add @valexe-technologies/lookup.services

Note: When you install Lookup.Services, it downloads a recent version of Puppeteer along with Chromium that is guaranteed to work with the API. To skip the download of Chromium, download into another path, or download a different browser, see Puppeteer Environment variables.

Usage

Lookup.Services provides below listed APIs:

• List of supported Currencies
• List of supported Registrars
• Domain name is Available or not
• Price of the domain

Example - Supported Currencies

Save file as index.js

const lookupServices = require('@valexe-technologies/lookup.services');

(async () => {
    const supportedCurrencies = await lookupServices.SUPPORTED_CURRENCIES;

    console.log(supportedCurrencies);
})();

Execute script on the command line

node index.js

It will print list of supported Currencies as JSON object.

[
  {
    "code": "INR",
    "symbol": "₹",
    "name": "Indian Rupee"
  },
  {
    "code": "USD",
    "symbol": "$",
    "name": "United States of America"
  }
]

Example - Supported Registrars

Save file as index.js

const lookupServices = require('@valexe-technologies/lookup.services');

(async () => {
    const domainServices = new lookupServices.DomainServices();
    await domainServices
        .init(
            false // headless 'false' to show Chromium instance
        );
    
    const supportedRegistrars = await domainServices
        .domainRegistrarsByCurrency(
            'INR' // one of the Supported "Currency Code"
        );

    console.log(supportedRegistrars);
})();

Execute script on the command line

node index.js

It will print list of supported Registrars as JSON object.

    ]
  }
]

Example - Is Domain Available or not

Save file as index.js

const lookupServices = require('@valexe-technologies/lookup.services');

const domainTLD = 'com';
const randomDomainName = 'whatblarandomdomainxyz';
const exampleDomainNameWithTLD = `${randomDomainName}.${domainTLD}`;

(async () => {
    const domainServices = new lookupServices.DomainServices();
    await domainServices
        .init(
            false // headless 'false' to show Chromium instance
        );

    const response = await domainServices
        .isDomainAvailable(
            exampleDomainNameWithTLD
        );

    console.log(response);
})();

Execute script on the command line

node index.js

It will print true if domain is available or false if domain is not available.

true or false

Example - Domain Price

Save file as index.js

const lookupServices = require('@valexe-technologies/lookup.services');

const domainTLD = 'com';
const randomDomainName = 'whatblarandomdomainxyz';
const exampleDomainNameWithTLD = `${randomDomainName}.${domainTLD}`;

(async () => {
    const domainServices = new lookupServices.DomainServices();
    await domainServices
        .init(
            false // headless 'false' to show Chromium instance
        );

    const response = await domainServices
        .domainPrice(
            'BigRock', // one of the "Registrar Name"
            exampleDomainNameWithTLD,
            'INR' // one of the Supported "Currency Code"
        );

    console.log(response);
})();

Execute script on the command line
