Testing

Running Tests

By default, all tests run including network tests. Network tests automatically skip on timeout or connection errors to avoid CI failures due to transient network issues.

# Run all tests (default - network tests skip on timeout)
pytest

# Run tests excluding network tests entirely
pytest -m "not network"

# Run only network tests
pytest -m "network"

# Run network tests in strict mode (fail on timeout instead of skip)
pytest -m "network" --network-strict

Network tests are marked with @pytest.mark.network. When these tests encounter timeouts or connection errors, they automatically skip instead of failing (unless run with --network-strict).

Config file

The client uses the --home option to point to a directory, by default will check in order: $RDAP_HOME, ./.rdap, ~/.rdap, ~/.config/rdap

The directory should have a config.yaml file in it, defaults shown below.

rdap:
  # URL to bootstrap the initial request off
  bootstrap_url: https://rdap.db.ripe.net/
  # boolean to use data from bootstrap_data_url instead of a bootstrap server
  self_bootstrap: False
  # url to load bootstrap data from
  bootstrap_data_url: "https://data.iana.org/rdap/"
  # length of time in hours to keep bootstrap data
  bootstrap_cache_ttl: 25
  # how to format the output
  output_format: yaml
  # API key for use at rdap.lacnic.net
  lacnic_apikey: None
  # role types to recursively query when processing
  recurse_roles: ["administrative", "technical"]
  # HTTP request timeout in seconds, used for both connect and read
  timeout: 0.5
