Motivation

Extract the TLD/domain/subdomain parts of an URL/hostname against mozilla TLDs 'official' listing .

API

var parser = require('tld-extract');

console.log( parser("http://www.google.com") );
console.log( parser("http://google.co.uk") );
/**
* >> { tld: 'com', domain: 'google.com', sub: 'www' }
* >> { tld: 'co.uk', domain: 'google.co.uk', sub: '' }
*/

Why

• no dependencies
• really fast
• full code coverage
• easy to read (10 lines)
• easily updatable vs mozilla TLDs source list

Maintenance

You can update the remote hash table using npm run update

Not Invented Here

• A port of a yks/PHP library

• tldextract => bad API, (no need for async, "domain" property is wrong), no need for dependencies

• tld => (nothing bad, a bit outdated )

• tld.js => no sane way to prove/trust/update TLD listing
