Hostname Extractor
==================

[](#hostname-extractor)

A simple library to manipulate domains.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use BenTools\HostnameExtractor\HostnameExtractor;
use BenTools\HostnameExtractor\SuffixProvider\PublicSuffixProvider;

$extractor = new HostnameExtractor(new PublicSuffixProvider());
$hostname = $extractor->extract('my.preferred.domain.co.uk');
dump($hostname->getSubdomain()); // my.preferred
dump($hostname->getDomain()); // domain
dump($hostname->getSuffix()); // co.uk
dump($hostname->getTld()); // uk
dump($hostname->getSuffixedDomain()); // domain.co.uk
dump($hostname->isIp()); // false
dump($hostname->isIpv4()); // false
dump($hostname->isIpv6()); // false
```

As you can see, `co.uk` is considered as a suffix (otherwise, we would have considered that `co` is the domain and `uk` the suffix / tld).

The library parses the [Public Suffix List](https://publicsuffix.org/), which stores thousands of existing suffixes.

To avoid network latency feel free to implement your own `BenTools\HostnameExtractor\SuffixProvider\SuffixProviderInterface` or to use your favorite [PSR-16](http://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-16/) library into a `BenTools\HostnameExtractor\SuffixProvider\PSR16CacheSuffixProvider` object.
