Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

qnton-tld-extract

qnton-tld-extract is a simple npm package that allows you to extract the top-level domain (TLD), domain, and subdomain from a given URL.

Installation

You can install the qnton-tld-extract package using npm:

npm install qnton-tld-extract

Usage

To use the qnton-tld-extract package, you can import it in your JavaScript or TypeScript code:

const parseUrl = require('qnton-tld-extract');

const url = 'https://www.example.com/';

const result = parseUrl(url);

console.log(result);
// Output: { tld: 'com', domain: 'example.com', sub: 'www' }

Or if you're using TypeScript:

import parseUrl from 'qnton-tld-extract';

const url = 'https://www.example.com/';

const result = parseUrl(url);

console.log(result);
// Output: { tld: 'com', domain: 'example.com', sub: 'www' }

By default, parseUrl extracts the TLD, domain, and subdomain from the given URL. You can also extract the TLD, domain, and subdomain from just the hostname of a URL using the parse_host function:

const { parse_host } = require('qnton-tld-extract');

const host = 'www.example.com';

const result = parse_host(host);

console.log(result);
// Output: { tld: 'com', domain: 'example.com', sub: 'www' }

The parse_host function accepts an optional ParseOptions object that allows you to configure how the host is parsed. The available options are:

Private TLDs

Private TLDs are supported, see chromium source code for specs

console.log(parser('http://www.example.com'));
// Output:  { tld : 'com', domain : 'example.com', sub : 'www' };

console.log(parser('http://www.example.com', { allowPrivateTLD: true }));
// Output: { tld : 'example.com', domain : 'www.example.com', sub : '' };

Unknown TLDs (level0)

By default, unknown TLD throw an exception, you can allow them and use tld-extract as a parser using the allowUnknownTLD option

  parse("http://nowhere.local")
    >> throws /Invalid TLD/

  parse("http://nowhere.local", {allowUnknownTLD : true})
    >> { tld : 'local', domain : 'nowhere.local', sub : '' }

DotLess domain

Using a tld as a direct domain name, or dotless domain is highly not recommended (ICANN and IAB have spoken out against the practice, classifying it as a security risk among other concerns. ICANN's Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) additionally claims that SMTP "requires at least two labels in the FQDN of a mail address" and, as such, mail servers would reject emails to addresses with dotless domains), and will throw an error in tld-extract. You can override this behavior using the allowDotlessTLD option.

  parse("http://notaires.fr")
    >> throws /Invalid TLD/

  parse("http://notaires.fr", {allowDotlessTLD : true}))
    >> { tld : 'notaires.fr', domain : 'notaires.fr', sub : '' }
