Script intented to check a domain expiration with a query to the corresponding RDAP server. The RDAP server for the TLD is extracted from the IANA JSON RDAP. If the expiration field isn’t found on the TLD server, the script falls back to the registrar server.

This script is inspired from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/buanzo/check_expiration_rdap/main/src/nagios_check_domain_expiration_rdap/nagios_check_domain_expiration_rdap.py and /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/nagiosplugin/examples/

The script assumes that the TLD has only one label while looking for the RDAP server from the IANA JSON. If it’s not the case it will fail.

Have fun.

For all the options, run ./check_domain_expiration_rdap.py -h
