We just did a github release for an R package that provides an interface to the DomainTools API. It provides access to the core API functions that aren’t restricted (i.e. the ones we have access to):
domaintools_api_key: Get or setDOMAINTOOLS_API_KEYvaluedomaintools_username: Get or setDOMAINTOOLS_API_USERNAMEvaluedomain_profile: Domain Profilehosting_history: Hosting Historyparsed_whois: Parsed Whoisreverse_ip: Reverse IPreverse_ns: Reverse Nameservershared_ips: Shared IPswhois: Whois Lookupwhois_history: Whois History
Each function has a full description and sample call, so feel free to kick the typres and provide feedback on github.
If you have access to the API elements we do not, please either contribute a PR or help us out with some testing.
This is one more package on our path towards a complete set of “cybersecurity” R packages to help information security folk get their (hopefully) data-driven jobs done in R. I believe @quominus may be working on a macro “whois” pacakge to unify access to all the various WHOIS services, too.
