(a tldr) +`hoardom` is a rust based tool with cli, tui and to some degree gui interface. It is intended for checking and tracking the availability and status of domains and domain name ideas. + +In short the threeish interfaces serve the following purposes : +- CLI : Allows for quick and script/programm integratable use through its CLi interface returning domain availability status or lists with a wide but still sane amount of support of parameters +- TUI : Allows you to hunt and keep track of domain (name) ideas and quickly search up what is available and what isnt right in your unix terminal of choice +- GUI : Is a wrapper for the TUI that gives it its own icon in your app menu and when opened in dock/taskbar incase you wish to not use it that way. + +## How do I install `hoardom`? +`hoardom`'s tui and especially its gui interface officially only supports Unix based systems, Windows was net tested!
The regular cli interface should work with the built in main lookup and fallback whois implementations on Windows but that hasn't been tested. + +### Debian + +```bash +# Install RustUp Toolchain (Optional if already installed) +curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh + +# clone this repo +https://git.teleco.ch/crt/hoardom.git/about/?h=master + +``` + +>
- +> **_Question:_** Whats the like main use for this tool?

+> -**_Answer:_** To allow looking up whether or not domain names are available or already registered without scrolling for ages through a long and slow web ui by your domain registrar of choice or needing to go through like 3 sites to cover all domain registrars you might use.

- +> **_Question:_** I dont need GUI all I want is a simple command?

- +> **_Answer:_** Ofcourse! That was the initial idea, simply type :
+> --> `hoardom somedomain.com` to see if a specific domain is free
+> --> `hoardom somedomain` to check which top 100ish tlds are free
+> --> `hoardom -l all -a somedomain` to check all 600ish registerable domain names and explicitly show which ones are already taken

- +> **_Note:_** If you need stuff like csv outputs or other silly features check [the CLi docs](doc/CLI.md)
