czdomains

Database of registered .cz (Czechia) TLD domains. Contains frontend which can be queried. Each entry can look up an archived content on archive.org and look-up its WHOIS data.

An instance running at czdomains.synacek.xyz.

Prerequisites

Application requires NodeJS environment and access to file system due to data being stored in sqlite file.

Lookup service for WHOIS data is IP2Location.io and you will need API key to use it. Form for submitting new domains uses formspree.io service. Any of these two should be easily replacable with an alternative.

Populating database with data

You can run import script:

npm run import -- --file [path-to-file]

The file should include one domain per line. This script will ingest the domains and ignore any duplicates. This data is not part of this repository.

Development

JSON schema

Endpoints use JSON schema to define the constraints of inputs. Run npm run schema:compile to convert JSON schema to Typescript definitions.

Lint & typecheck

npm run lint lints the codebase.
npm run typecheck runs Typescript compiler without emitting source to check for any errors

Formatter

npm run format

Test

npm run test

Development server

npm run dev will launch application in development mode
npm run dev:debug attaches debugger

Deployment

Make sure you have all your secrets define in .env, copy .env.example to see what these are.

Application can be started with npm run start. You should provide PORT environment variable to specify which port to run the webserver on. You can add this variable to .env file as well.

Before you run the application for the first time, run migration script npm run migrate that will set up database tables.
