Why not whois?

This is a rewrite of the fantastic module whois by Ridwan.

Features:

- uses plain JS instead of CoffeeScript
- promises instead of callbacks
- optionally return json instead of plain text
- eliminates unnecessary dependencies (underscore.js)

Try it out

Test it out here.

The format is https://api-staging.namewhisk.com/{domain}

Usage

`js

const whois = require('whois-2')

whois('youtube.com', { format: 'json' }).then(data => {
console.log(data)
