whois

A Python package for retrieving WHOIS information of domains.

Features

• Python wrapper for Linux "whois" command.
• Simple interface to access parsed WHOIS data for a given domain.
• Able to extract data for all the popular TLDs (com, org, net, biz, info, pl, jp, uk, nz, ...).
• Query a WHOIS server directly instead of going through an intermediate web service like many others do.
• Works with Python 3.x.
• All dates as datetime objects.
• Possibility to cache results.
• Verbose output on stderr during debugging to see how the internal functions are doing their work
• raise a exception on Quota ecceeded type responses
• raise a exception on PrivateRegistry tld's where we know the tld and know we don't know anything
• allow for optional cleaning the whois response before extracting information
• International domain name support & common Chinese domain name support
