Introduction
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Handlers are pieces of code that parse the raw whois output and try
|
|
|
|
|
to add some keys to the result returned by phpWhois. In previous
|
2003-03-12 08:43:28 +00:00
|
|
|
|
versions there was no standard about how these keys should be named
|
|
|
|
|
and organized, which make them registry specific. Now all handlers
|
|
|
|
|
have been standarized so they return a known set of keys. This is what
|
|
|
|
|
we call 'Common Object Model'.

Common Object Model
|
|
|
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The keys that you could find in the result array returned by phpWhois
|
|
|
|
|
are 'rawdata' , 'regyinfo' and 'regrinfo'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rawdata is always returned as it's filled by phpWhois itself. It
|
|
|
|
|
contains the raw text output returned by the whois server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regyinfo contains information about the registry who returned that
|
|
|
|
|
information. It has three subkeys: 'whois' (the whois server who
|
2003-03-22 21:17:44 +00:00
|
|
|
|
returned the data), 'referrer' (the web address of the registry)
|
2003-03-07 21:26:01 +00:00
|
|
|
|
and 'registar' (the company name of the registry).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regrinfo holds the information about the domain itself. It could have
|
|
|
|
|
the following subkeys:
|

-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All of these possible keys hold information about the different
|
|
|
|
|
contacts of the domain or ip address. They all could have the
|
|
|
|
|
same subkeys, that are:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
organization -> organization name

|
|
|
|
name -> organization responsible
|
|

address -> array containing the address, the
|
|

|
|
|
|
numbers, could have predefined
|
|
|
|
|
subkeys or could be amix of numbers
|
|
|
|
|
and predefined subkeys. Predefined
|
|
|
|
|
subkeys are street, street2, city,
|
|
|
|
|
state, pcode and country

|
|
source -> who provided that information
|
|
|
|
|
remarks -> remarks
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Not all handlers fill values in each of the keys defined by the
|
|
|
|
|
Common Object Model as not all registries return the same amount
|
|
|
|
|
of data about a domain or ip address. Also there are some differences
|
2005-07-16 11:14:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
on the format returned for some keys.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dates (created/changed/expires) are always returned in the format
|
|
|
|
|
yyyy-mm-dd.

Writing handlers
|
|
|
|
|
----------------
|
2003-03-07 21:26:01 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Writing handlers is easy, just look at how some of them are coded.
|
|
|
|
|
If you write a new handler, please try to map as many as possible
|
|
|
|
|
returned data to keys defined by the 'Common Object Model'. You can
|
|
|
|
|
create new keys if need, but please do not do create new keys where
|
|
|
|
|
existing predefined keys exists. Nevertheless all handlers submited
|
|
|
|
|
will be checked before they are added to phpWhois distribution.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some useful utility functions have been written to aid in developing
|
|
|
|
|
handlers. They are contained in generic.whois, generic2.whois and
|
|
|
|
|
generic3.whois. Almost all handlers use functions provided by those
|
|
|
|
|
files. You can see how they work by looking into the code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-03-12 08:43:28 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Please try to mimic the coding style of the other handlers, as this
|
|
|
|
|
will make it easier for other people to understand and maintain.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2004-04-24 17:38:53 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Some support functions have been developed to help you write new
|
|
|
|
|
handlers, those functions are stored on the following files:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- generic.whois:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
contains code to parse whois outputs like this one, you could
|
|

take a look at atnic.whois to see how you could use it:
