Whois is an intelligent pure Ruby WHOIS client and parser.

It is a OS-independent library and doesn’t require external C libraries or Gems: it is a 100% Ruby software with all the advantages and disadvantages that it involves. This software was developed to power RoboDomain and it eventually become a standalone library.

Whois provides the following key features:

  • Pure Ruby library, without any additional dependency
  • Compatible with Ruby 1.8.6 and greater, including Ruby 1.9
  • Successfully tested against multiple Ruby platforms and versions including Ruby, Ruby Enterprise Edition and MacRuby
  • Ability to query registry data for IPv4, IPv6 and top level domains
  • Ability to parse WHOIS responses
  • Flexible and extensible interface (ex. You can define custom servers on the fly)
  • Object oriented design
