NAME

WWW::CNic::Simple - a procedural interface to WWW::CNic

SYNOPSIS

         #!/usr/bin/perl
         use WWW::CNic::Simple;
 
         my @suffixes = suffixes();
 
         my %results = check('test-domain', 'uk.com', 'uk.net');
         print "test-domain.uk.com is registered.\n" if ($results{'uk.com'} == 1);
 
         my %whois = whois('test-domain.uk.com');
         print "domain status: $whois{status}\n";
 
 

DESCRIPTION

This interface is intended for those who want a simplified view of the WWW::CNic library. It provides simple functions for querying the CentralNic system, making it ideal for one-liners and other tasks.

Please note that it is not possible to make domain registrations or modifications using "WWW::CNic::Simple".

FUNCTIONS

         my @suffixes = suffixes();
 
 

This function returns an array containing the currently live CentralNic suffixes.

         my %result = check($domain, @suffixes);
 
 

This function does an availability check on $domain against the suffixes contained in @suffixes. Note that if @suffixes is omitted the check will run against all CentralNic domains.

The function returns a hash of the form:

         my %result = (  'uk.com'        => 1,
                         'uk.net'        => 0,
                         'eu.com'        => 0);
 
 

where 1 indicates that the domain is already registered.

         my %whois = whois($domain);
 
 

This function returns a hash containing whois data for the given $domain This hash is of the form:

         my %whois =     {       chandle         => {    postcode        => 'SW6 4SN',
                                                         country         => 'UK',

                                                         company         => 'CentralNic Ltd' },
                                 expires         => '1001458800',

                                 bhandle         => # as chandle above
                                 registrant      => 'CentralNic Ltd',
