Node WHOIS
Node WHOIS is a WHOIS client for Node.js.
Installation
$ npm install whois-es6
Usage
import { lookup } from 'whois-es6'
lookup('google.com', function(err, data) {
console.log(data)
})
You may pass an object in between the address and the callback function to tweak the behavior of the lookup function:
{
"server": "", // this can be a string ("host:port") or an object with host and port as its keys; leaving it empty makes lookup rely on servers.json
"follow": 2, // number of times to follow redirects
"timeout": 0, // socket timeout, excluding this doesn't override any default timeout value
"verbose": false // setting this to true returns an array of responses from all servers
"bind": null // bind the socket to a local IP address
"proxy": { // (optional) SOCKS Proxy
"host": "",
"port": 0,
"type": 5 // or 4
}
}
