FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package whois

Redbox-whois

Packagist Unit Tests PhpCS Test Coverage PHP Package

This is a Whois library I wrote to use for reconnaissance missions for my pen testing efforts. You could use it yourself because I made it easy to use.

Installation

Usage

The package is flexible and easy to use. Here are a few examples of how you could use the package.

Simple static call

Use it without the static call

The static call mentioned above is just a clever wrapper around the lookup function. You can instantiate the WhoisClient yourself and call the lookup function. Note as well we are using the getOutput() function to get the output of the lookup.

Save the output to a file

The saveOutput function has an optional parameter: the path to the file. If you do not specify a path the output will be stored as whois.txt. The saveOutput function will return the WhoisClient object so you can chain it with getOutput() if you wish.

Special thanks

I needed a list of TLDs and their whois servers. This list of servers I found in the PHP WHOIS project. If you are looking for even more options to configure, check out that project. Besides more options, it will also support php versions ranging from 5.6 to the latest and current PHP version.
