Calculate remaining days of domain using whois Python module

In this tutorial I will show you how to calculate remaining days of domain to expire. 

Install Python package:

pip install python-whois

PYTHON CODE:

import datetime

import whois



def get_whois_info(domain_name):

    domain_info = whois.whois(domain_name)

    expiration_date = domain_info.expiration_date[0]

    last_updated = domain_info.last_updated

    registrar = domain_info.registrar

    remaining_days=(expiration_date-datetime.datetime.now()).days

       

    return {

        'expiration_date': expiration_date ,

        'last_updated': last_updated,

        'registrar': registrar,

        'name': domain_name,

        'remaining_days':remaining_days

    }



# Example domain

domain_name = 'quicgen.com'



# Get WHOIS information

domain_info = get_whois_info(domain_name)



for key, value in domain_info.items():

    print(key,':', value)

I obtain the expiration date from Whois module. To get the no. of days I subtract expiration date from current date and time.
