GET_ROOT_DOMAIN(1p)

💖 GET_ROOT_DOMAIN 💖

okay bestie, so this is get_root_domain — a lil Perl utility from the 1p manual section, and honestly? it's giving "small but mighty" ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

get_root_domain — Retrieve suffix info from a domain using Domain::PublicSuffix

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the get_root_domain utility is out here using Domain::PublicSuffix to pull the root or suffix for a fully qualified domain name. you hand it an FQDN, and it hands you back three things, no gatekeeping:

• the "root domain" (the main character of the whole situation 👑)
• the suffix
• the TLD that was used to calculate that root domain

literally the whole point is figuring out which part of a domain is actually the root, and which part is just the suffix sitting on top of it. periodt. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

get_root_domain <domainname>

---

🎀 EXAMPLE USAGE 🎀

watch her work, it's so satisfying fr fr:

$ get_root_domain www.google.com
      Domain: www.google.com
 Root Domain: google.com
      Suffix: com
         TLD: com

$ get_root_domain www.google.co.uk
      Domain: www.google.co.uk
 Root Domain: google.co.uk
      Suffix: co.uk
         TLD: uk

like…… co.uk is a suffix and uk is the TLD and that's a whole different vibe from the .com example. iykyk 🌈
