IMPORTANT: This project is an heavily modified fork of uWhoisd
The main change is that it uses the linux whois command on every call unless otherwise specified in the config.
A 'Universal WHOIS' proxy server: you query it for information about a particular domain, it works out the correct WHOIS server to query and gives back the correct details.
You will need a whois command installed on the system, and poetry.
On Ubuntu/Debian, apt install whois will get you a whois client. For poetry, please have a look at the install guide.
You need to have redis cloned and installed in the same directory you clone uwhoisd in: uwhoisd and redis must be in the same directory, and not redis cloned in the uwhoisd directory. See this guide.
Follow the install guide on lookyloo website.
The install guide above explains how to run uwhoisd as a system service. If you want to run it manually, do as follow:
poetry run start poetry run stop
Requesting a whois entry for a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) only works if the request only contains the domain. uWhoisd will automatically strip the subdomain part if it is present in the request.
Example: www.theguardian.co.uk
co.uk (uWhoisd uses the Mozilla public suffix list as a reference)theguardian.co.ukwwwThe whois request will be for theguardian.co.uk
