NAME

Net::Whois::Norid - Lookup WHOIS data from norid.

SYNOPSIS

  my $whois = Net::Whois::Norid->new('thefeed.no');
  print $whois->post_address;
  print $whois->organization->fax_number;

DESCRIPTION

This module provides an object oriented API for use with the Norid whois service. It uses Net::Whois::Raw internally to fetch information from Norid.

METHODS

new

The constructor. Takes a lookup argument. Returns a new object.

lookup

Do a whois lookup in the Norid database and populate the object from the result.

get

Use this to access any data parsed. Note that spaces and '-'s will be converted to underscores (_). For the special "Handle" entries, omitting the _Handle part will return a new Net::Whois::Norid object. The method is a case insensitive.

AUTOLOAD

This module uses the autoload mechanism to provide accessors for any available data through the get mechanism above.

SEE ALSO

CAVEATS

Some rows in the whois data might appear more than once. in that case they are separated with line space. For objects, an array is returned.
