root_domain

If you ever worked with domain validation, you probably needed to extract the root domain. This means that, given some hostname, you must remove subdomains from the original input, taking into account not only official Internet TLDs, but SLDs too.

With root_domain, you can easily extract the root domain, expanding any input from punycode into ASCII entries.

Installation

gem install root_domain

Or add the following line to your project's Gemfile:

gem "root_domain"

Usage

require "root_domain"

RootDomain.call("www.example.com")
#=> example.com

RootDomain.call("www.example.com.br")
#=> example.com.br

RootDomain.call("myapp.apps.🤯.com")
#=> xn--oq9h.com
