norcube domainradar check

Check whether domains are available to register

Not verified yet

Checks each domain live and prints whether it is available, with the method that answered and, for registered domains, the expiry date and registrar. Domains come from the arguments, a file (--file) or standard input (--file - or a single -), one per line.

Up to 100 domains at a time; for more, use "domainradar bulk create", which runs on the server.

Checks are billed by the method that answered them; cached answers (see --max-age) are free.

Usage

norcube domainradar check <domain>... [flags]

Examples

norcube domainradar check example.com
norcube domainradar check acme.io acme.dev acme.app --mode bloom
norcube domainradar check --file names.txt --mode info -o json
cat names.txt | norcube domainradar check - -o text --query "[?available].domain"

Flags

FlagDefaultDescription
-f, --fileRead domains from this file, one per line (- for standard input)
--max-age0sAccept a cached answer up to this old (e.g. 1h, 24h; cached answers are free). 0 uses the service default
--modeverifiedCheck depth: bloom (fastest, a bloom-filter hit answers "registered"), verified (DNS, then RDAP or WHOIS), info (adds registrar and DNS records) or full (also keeps the raw registry data)

Every command also takes the global flags: --profile, --org, -o, --query, --debug and more.
