.BA WHOIS domain lookup through terminal

WHOIS domain lookup for .BA domains through terminal

What is this?

This is fun open-source side project for checking .BA domain through terminal. Response of WHOIS lookup on official website NIC.ba is returned as image, so it is not possible to scrape WHOIS data for .BA domains. So here we use OCR software to convert WHOIS data from image to text.

How to use?

Ping whois.div.ba/{domain}

Example

curl whois.div.ba/nic.ba

What we use?

• Lumen - PHP micro-framework
• Tesseract OCR - OCR Engine
• Tesseract OCR for PHP - Tesseract OCR PHP wrapper
