RDAPPER(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation RDAPPER(1)NAMErdapper - a command-line RDAP client.
DESCRIPTIONrdapper is a command-line client for the Registration Data Access
Protocol (RDAP), the successor protocol to Whois (RFC 3912). RDAP is
currently being developed by the WEIRDS IETF working group, and has not
yet been finalized.
This tool will send an RDAP query to an RDAP server over HTTP or HTTPS,
parse the JSON response, and display it in human-readable form.
INSTALLING
To install this program type the following commands in the source
directory:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
USAGErdapper [OPTIONS] QUERY
OPTIONS
--host=HOST (default: rdap.org)
Specify the host to query. If not set, rdapper uses "rdap.org" (see
below).
--TYPE=TYPE
Specify the type of object being queried. Possible values are:
"domain", "entity" (also "contact"), "nameserver" (also "host"),
"autnum" and "ip". rdapper will detect IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and
CIDR networks and AS numbers, and will fall back to domain queries
for everything else.
--follow
Instructs rdapper to follow links to retrieve full entity
information.
--links
Display URIs for referenced objects.
--path=PATH
Specify a JSONPath query. Any elements in the response which match
this path will be printed in JSON format.
See below for details of JSONPath.
--tls
Force use of TLS.
--insecure
Disable server certificate checking and hostname verification.
--username=USERNAME
Specify a username to be used with Basic Authentication.
--password=PASSWORD
Specify a password to be used with Basic Authentication.
Note: if the initial request is redirected, authentication
credentials will be sent in the subsequent request to the target
server, so users should consider whether these credentials might be
disclosed inappropriately.
--cert=CERTIFICATE
Specify a client SSL certificate to present to the server.
--key=KEY
Specify a private key matching the certificate given in "--cert".
--keypass=PASSPHRASE
Specify a passphrase to decrypt the private key given by "--key".
--raw
Causes rdapper to emit pretty-printed JSON rather than text output.
--debug
Causes rdapper to display the HTTP request and response rather than
the text output.
--lang=LANGUAGE
Specify a language. This is sent to the server using the
"Accept-Language" header. If unset, the language will be taken from
your $LANG environment variable (or "en" if that is not defined).
--encoding=ENCODING
Specify an encoding. This is sent to the server using the
"Accept-Encoding" header. If unset, the encoding will be taken from
your $LANG environment variable (or "UTF-8" if that is not
defined).
JSONPath
You can use JSONPath to specify a subset of the complete response.
JSONPath is an XPath-like syntax for querying JSON structures. The
following are examples of JSONPath queries:
$.handle # the handle of an object
$.nameServers[0].name # the name of a domain's first nameserver
$.entities[0].emails[0] # the first email address of an object's first entity
$.nameServers..name # the names of every nameserver
For a full explanation of the available syntax, see the link below.
USE OF RDAP.ORG
Unless instructed otherwise (via the "--host" argument), rdapper will
send all queries to rdap.org: this server is an aggregator of RDAP
services, and will provide an HTTP redirect to the appropriate service
where available.
