Python Code Examples

  • Example 1: Query whois information of GitHub.com using WHOIS class.
# First step is to import the package
import whois21

query = 'github.com'

# Second step is to create an instance of the WHOIS class
whois = whois21.WHOIS(query)

# Third step is to check if the operation was successful
if not whois.success:
    print(whois.error)
    exit()

# And basically you are done!
# Now you can print the results
import log21  # I use log21 to print the results in a cool way 8D

# Print the results in a nice way
# PPrint the dictionary
log21.pprint(whois.whois_data)
# Tree-Print the dictionary
log21.tree_print(whois.whois_data)

# Or you can print the results in as raw text
print(whois.raw.decode('utf-8'))

# Or you can access each part of the results individually
print(f'Creation date   : {whois.creation_date}')
print(f'Expiration date : {whois.expires_date}')
print(f'Updated date    : {whois.updated_date}')
