Public Suffix List API

This is a thread-safe Java API for Mozilla's Public Suffix List:

A "public suffix" is one under which Internet users can directly register names. Some examples of public suffixes are .com, .co.uk and pvt.k12.ma.us.

Installation

This package is available in Maven central:

<dependency>
	<groupId>de.malkusch.whois-server-list</groupId>
	<artifactId>public-suffix-list</artifactId>
	<version>2.2.0</version>
</dependency>

Usage

Create a PublicSuffixList with a PublicSuffixListFactory:

  • PublicSuffixList.getRegistrableDomain(): Gets the registrable domain or null. E.g. "www.example.net" and "example.net" will return "example.net". Null, an empty string or domains with a leading dot will return null.

  • PublicSuffixList.isRegistrable(): Returns whether a domain is registrable. E.g. "example.net" is registrable, "www.example.net" and "net" are not.

  • PublicSuffixList.isPublicSuffix(): Returns whether a domain is a public suffix or not. E.g. "com" is a public suffix, "example.com" isn't.

  • PublicSuffixList.getPublicSuffix(): Returns the public suffix from a domain or null. If the domain is already a public suffix, it will be returned unchanged. E.g. "www.example.net" will return "net".

All methods are case insensitive.

IDN

You can use the API's methods with UTF-8 domain names or Punycode encoded ASCII domain names. The API will return the results in the same format as the input was. I.e. if you use an UTF-8 string the result will be an UTF-8 String as well. Same for Punycode.

Example

PublicSuffixListFactory factory = new PublicSuffixListFactory();
PublicSuffixList suffixList = factory.build();

assertTrue(suffixList.isPublicSuffix("net"));
assertFalse(suffixList.isPublicSuffix("example.net"));

assertEquals("net", suffixList.getPublicSuffix("www.example.net"));
assertEquals("net", suffixList.getPublicSuffix("net"));

assertTrue(suffixList.isRegistrable("example.net"));
assertFalse(suffixList.isRegistrable("www.example.net"));
assertFalse(suffixList.isRegistrable("net"));

assertNull(suffixList.getRegistrableDomain("net"));
assertEquals("example.net", suffixList.getRegistrableDomain("example.net"));
assertEquals("example.net", suffixList.getRegistrableDomain("www.example.net"));
assertEquals("example.co.uk", suffixList.getRegistrableDomain("example.co.uk"));
assertEquals("example.co.uk", suffixList.getRegistrableDomain("www.example.co.uk"));

assertEquals("食狮.com.cn", suffixList.getRegistrableDomain("食狮.com.cn"));
assertEquals("xn--85x722f.com.cn", suffixList.getRegistrableDomain("xn--85x722f.com.cn"));

Public Suffix List update

This library comes with a bundled list which is most likely out dated. You are encouraged to follow Mozilla's Atom change feed and use the latest effective_tld_names.dat. You can specify a custom path to your latest list by setting the property PROPERTY_LIST_FILE:

PublicSuffixListFactory factory = new PublicSuffixListFactory();

Properties properties = factory.getDefaults();
properties.setProperty(
        PublicSuffixListFactory.PROPERTY_LIST_FILE, "/effective_tld_names.dat");

PublicSuffixList suffixList = factory.build(properties);

Download Public Suffix List with Maven

You can integrate the download of the latest list in your maven build process:
