isDomainName

Test if a value is a domain name.

Usage

var isDomainName = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-domain-name' );

isDomainName( value )

Tests if a value is a domain name.

var bool = isDomainName( 'example.com' );
// returns true

bool = isDomainName( '[email protected]' );
// returns false

Notes

  • Validation adheres to RFC 2181, which defines the syntax for domain names and stipulates that domain names must be 255 characters or less.

Examples

var isDomainName = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-domain-name' );

var bool = isDomainName( 'www.example.com' );
// returns true

bool = isDomainName( '[email protected]' );
// returns false

bool = isDomainName( 'beep boop' );
// returns false

bool = isDomainName( null );
// returns false

bool = isDomainName( 5.0 );
// returns false

CLI

Usage

Usage: is-domain-name [options] [<string>]

Options:

  -h,    --help                Print this message.
  -V,    --version             Print the package version.
         --split sep           Delimiter for stdin data. Default: '/\\r?\\n/'.

Notes

  • If the split separator is a regular expression, ensure that the split option is either properly escaped or enclosed in quotes.

    # Not escaped...
    $ echo -n $'[email protected]\nbaz.com' | is-domain-name --split /\r?\n/
    
    # Escaped...
    $ echo -n $'[email protected]\nbaz.com' | is-domain-name --split /\\r?\\n/
  • The implementation ignores trailing delimiters.

Examples

$ is-domain-name example.com
true

To use as a standard stream,

$ echo -n 'example.com' | is-domain-name
true

By default, when used as a standard stream, the implementation assumes newline-delimited data. To specify an alternative delimiter, set the split option.

$ echo -n 'beep boop\tbaz.com' | is-domain-name --split '\t'
false
true
