# TLD Enumerations
Lists of every [IANA TLD](http://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt) in formats that can be natively compiled in various formats. The lists may be continuously updated using the included utility that uses the latest data from IANA.

 * [Node Usage](#node-usage)
 * [PHP Usage](#php-usage)
 * [CSV of every TLD](./tlds.csv)
 * [All TLD Formats](#)
 * [Updating the TLDs](#)


## Usage
The lists can be conveniently used in PHP or Node projects.

### Node Usage
 * use npm to add the `tld-enum` package to your project
   ```sh
   $ npm install tld-enum --save
   ```
   
 * add the module to your source
 
   ```js
   const tldEnum = require('tld-enum');
   ```
   
 * access the list by using the `tldEnum.tldList` array
 
   ```js
   const tldEnum = require('tld-enum');
   tldEnum.tldList; //an array with every IANA TLD
   ```
   
   The following example...
   ```js
   const tldEnum = require('tld-enum');

   console.log("There are " + tldEnum.tldList.length + " IANA TLDs");

   let tldCheck;

   tldCheck = "com";
   console.log("Is '" + tldCheck + "' a real TLD?");
   if (tldEnum.tldList.indexOf(tldCheck.toLowerCase()) != -1) {
       console.log("  yes");
   } else {
       console.log("  no");
   }

   tldCheck = "somethingWeird";
   console.log("Is '" + tldCheck + "' a real TLD?");
   if (tldEnum.tldList.indexOf(tldCheck.toLowerCase()) != -1) {
       console.log("  yes");
   } else {
       console.log("  no");
   }
   ```
   
   Should produce the following output...
   ```txt
   There are 1573 IANA TLDs
   Is 'com' a real TLD?
      yes
   Is 'somethingWeird' a real TLD?
      no
   ```

### PHP Usage
 * use composer to add the `katmore/tld-enum` package to your project
   ```sh
   $ composer require katmore/tld-enum
   ```
   
 * access the list by using the `\TldEnum\TldEnum::TLD_ENUM` class constant array
 
   ```php
   <?php
   require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
   \TldEnum\TldEnum::TLD_ENUM; //an array with every IANA TLD
   ```
 
   The following example...
   ```php
   <?php
   use TldEnum\TldEnum;

   require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

   echo "There are " . count(TldEnum::TLD_ENUM) . " IANA TLDs\n";

   $tldCheck = "com";
   echo "Is '$tldCheck' a real TLD?\n";
   if (in_array(strtolower($tldCheck), TldEnum::TLD_ENUM)) {
       echo "  yes\n";
   } else {
       echo "  no\n";
   }

   $tldCheck = "somethingWeird";
   echo "Is '$tldCheck' a real TLD?\n";
   if (in_array(strtolower($tldCheck), TldEnum::TLD_ENUM)) {
       echo "  yes\n";
   } else {
       echo "  no\n";
   }
   ```
   
   Should produce the following output...
   ```txt
   There are 1573 IANA TLDs
   Is 'com' a real TLD?
      yes
   Is 'somethingWeird' a real TLD?
      no
   ```

## Examples
 * [php-demo.php](/examples/php-demo.php)
 * [js-demo.js](/examples/js-demo.js)

## TLD List Formats
 * **CSV**: [tlds.csv](/tlds.csv)
 
    A CSV file providing a row for each TLD with the following  three columns: *domain* (TLD), *description*, and *type*.
    
 * **PHP**: [TldEnum.php](/formats/php/TldEnum/TldEnum.php)
 
    A PHP source file providing a class with a constant having an array value comprised of every IANA TLD.
  
 * **JSON**: [tld-list.json](/formats/json/tld-list.json)
 
    A JSON formatted array comprised of every IANA TLD.
 
 * **JavaScript**: [tld-enum.js](/formats/js/tld-enum.js)
 
    An export module with a constant having an array value comprised of every IANA TLD.
    
## Updating the TLD lists
All [TLD List Formats](#tld-list-formats) can be with the latest data from IANA by using the [**TLD Update Utility**](/bin/update-formats.sh).

```sh
$ bin/update-formats.sh
```

### TLD Update Utility Prerequisites
 * Node.js version 8.11 or higher.
 * (Optional) PHP command-line version 7.2 or higher, to create the [PHP format class file](#tld-list-formats).

### TLD Update Utility Usage
```txt
usage:
  update-formats.sh [-h] | [-q][--skip-php]

options:
  -h,--help: Print a help message and exit.
  -q,--quiet: Print less messages.
  --force-php: Creating the PHP format file is mandatory.
  --skip-php: Always skip creating the PHP format file
```

### TLD Update Helpers
Internally, the *TLD Update Utility* uses multiple *"helper" scripts* to generate the full set of native format lists.
These individual *"helper" scripts* should not be directly executed except for development and troubleshooting purposes.
