Net::Domain::TLD - Work with TLD names
use Net::Domain::TLD qw(tlds tld_exists);
my @ccTLDs = tlds('cc');
print "TLD ok\n" if tld_exists('ac','cc');
The purpose of this module is to provide user with current list of
available top level domain names including new ICANN additions and ccTLDs
Currently TLD definitions have been acquired from the following sources:
http://www.icann.org/tlds/
http://www.dnso.org/constituency/gtld/gtld.html
http://www.iana.org/cctld/cctld-whois.htm
Each public function/method is described here.
These are how you should interact with this module.
This routine returns the tlds requested.
my @all_tlds = tlds; #array of tlds
my $all_tlds = tlds; #hashref of tlds and their descriptions
my @cc_tlds = tlds('cc'); #array of just 'cc' type tlds
my $cc_tlds = tlds('cc'); #hashref of just 'cc' type tlds and their descriptions
Valid types are:
cc - country code domains
gtld_open - generic domains that anyone can register
gtld_restricted - generic restricted registration domains
new_open - recently added generic domains
new_restricted - new restricted registration domains
This routine returns true if the given domain exists and false otherwise.
die "no such domain" unless tld_exists($tld); #call without tld type
die "no such domain" unless tld_exists($tld, 'new_open'); #call with tld type
