A rustacean implementation of tldextract highly inspired by python's module tldextract by John Kurkowski. A tool to accurately separate the TLD from the registered domain and subdomains of a URL, using the Public Suffix List. This relys on the Public Suffix List to identify gTLDs and ccTLDs correctly as oppose to spliting the URL string by dots and guessing where the parts of interest to you are.
Rust 1.13.0 or later is required.
On OS X and Windows, you may need to install the openssl runtime and headers to get the rust-openssl dependency to build. Instructions for that can be found here.
tldextract is available on crates.io. To use tldextract in your Rust program built with Cargo, add it as a dependency as follows:
[dependencies]
tldextract = {"*"}Below is the simplest way to use tldextract:
extern crate tldextract;
use tldextract::tldextract::extract::TldExtract;
fn main() {
let url = "http://news.forums.bbc.co.uk";
// Initiate a new TldExtract
let tld_extractor = TldExtract::new(None, None);
// call extract passing the URL string and get a tuple of results
let (subdomain, domain, suffix) = tld_extractor.extract(url);
println!("Subdomains: {:?}, Domain: {:?}, Suffix: {:?}",
subdomain,
domain,
suffix);
}
