Show HN: ZipWhois: Simple JSON Whois API and Domain API (zipwhois.com) 6 points by holoiii 11y ago ↗ HN
[–] mobiplayer 11y ago ↗ Nice! I recently built a whois "endpoint" at http://whois.datasnitch.co.uk/ You can request a domain whois just by adding the name in the URI, e.g.: http://whois.datasnitch.co.uk/fluffcomputing.comThe idea is to be able to use whois from my Windows command line as I do from Linux or OS X, so I wrote a quick and dirty Powershell script for that: https://gist.github.com/pjperez/d1af6c697a6997d07ed3Works like a charm from Powershell, looks like shit with a browser :)
[–] silvenga 11y ago ↗ How where you able to accurately parse multiple registrar's whois data (or is that a trade secret) since they all add disclaimers in odd places?Although, my contact data from "silvenga.com" wasn't parse correctly.
