.ve domain names

🎯 Purpose

This repository purpose is to daily share the list of .ve domain names. (As I have not found another public share of this list, including under SLDs, for now)

☕ Sample

$ curl -s -L https://github.com/uggyuggy/ve_domains/raw/main/ve.txt -o ve.txt
$
$ wc -l ve.txt 
23637 ve.txt
$
$ head ve.txt

📰 Informations

• Data is retrieved using DNS "zone walking" method

• There is no garantee of anything (I hope the zone is "full".. but who knows except the registry ?)

• When writing this, I think there is both, some domains at the apex, and some under SLDs like .com.ve., .gob.ve., .edu.ve. ...

• You may be interested by some other "zone walked" TLDs. Look into https://github.com/maaaaz/dnsdumps repo which provides others (At date of this README, Thomas have only the .ve. domains at the Apex, not under SLDs)

• There are 23637 domain names (as the time of writing this page)

• The file served here should be updated 1 time per day to not overload the remote servers for no reason.

• The file contains an additional comment line at the top starting with # that contain an UTC date information.

• For now there is a single comment line, but in case I add more in the future, you may better remove everything that start with a #

• The domain names end with .ve. (Ending dot, as FQDN)

• The domain names are provided sorted ( LC_ALL=C sort -u)

• There are some IDN domains (xn--)

• If there is no domain list provided for a specific day, this could mean my script failed to build/push the list

• You should be able to guess if the file has been updated successfully by checking either:

  • The date into the first comment line. LC_TIME=C date -u +'%d%b%Y %H:%M UTC'
  • The date of the last Github commit

🚧 Todo

• Write README
• Add emojis to the README (very important 🚨)
• Inform maaaaz/dnsdumps/issues/1
• Add more warning notifications in case of script failures
• Add more control to guess if something went wrong with script
• After I will be confident it's running as expected, possibly informing https://github.com/jschauma/tld-zoneinfo/
• ...
