# domcheck **Repository Path**: mirrors_rs/domcheck ## Basic Information - **Project Name**: domcheck - **Description**: A Python library to validate the ownership of a domain using different strategies - **Primary Language**: Unknown - **License**: MIT - **Default Branch**: master - **Homepage**: None - **GVP Project**: No ## Statistics - **Stars**: 0 - **Forks**: 0 - **Created**: 2020-08-18 - **Last Updated**: 2026-02-21 ## Categories & Tags **Categories**: Uncategorized **Tags**: None ## README Domcheck: Domain Ownership Validation ===================================== .. image:: https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/domcheck.svg :target: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/domcheck .. image:: https://travis-ci.org/rs/domcheck.svg?branch=master :target: https://travis-ci.org/rs/domcheck This Python library implements different strategies to validate the ownership of a domain name. Available strategies -------------------- All strategies takes 3 arguments: the domain to check, a static DNS safe ``prefix`` like "yourservice-domain-verification" and a randomly generated ``code``. - **DNS TXT record**: checks for the ``{prefix}-{code}`` string present in one of the ``TXT`` records on the domain name. - **DNS CNAME record**: checks for the existence of ``CNAME` record composed on the static ``{prefix}-{code}`` on the domain pointing to domain (usually yours) which the host is {prefix} (i.e.: {prefix}.yourdomain.com). NOTE: you may want to make sure that {prefix}.yourdomain.com resolves to something as some zone editors may check that. - **Meta Tag**: checks for the presence of a ```` tag in the ``
`` part of the domain's home page using either HTTP or HTTPs protocols. - **HTML File**: checks for the presence of a file named ``{code}.html`` at the root of the domain's website containing the string ``{prefix}={code}`` using either HTTP or HTTPs protocols. Usage Example ------------- Simple usage will check the domain with all available strategies and return ``True`` if the validation passed: .. code-block:: python import domcheck domain = "example.com" prefix = "myservice-domain-verification" code = "myserviceK2d8a0xdhh" if domcheck.check(domain, prefix, code): print("This domain is verified") You may filter strategies by passing a coma separated list of strategies: .. code-block:: python domcheck.check(domain, prefix, code, strategies="dns_txt,meta_tag") Installation ------------ To install domcheck, simply: $ pip install domcheck Licenses -------- All source code is licensed under the `MIT License
