Ruby Whois 1.0 is here!
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)
