# dropcatch (alpha) – NASK / .pl Edition

A zero-dependency Python utility for monitoring the lifecycle of Polish `.pl` domains via the NASK WHOIS registry (`whois.dns.pl`).

Intended for developers, domain investors, and SEO professionals who need direct WHOIS access without third-party API limits.


## Installation

```bash
pip install dropcatch
```


## Usage

`dropcatch` connects directly to port 43 of the Polish registry, parses the proprietary text format, and computes estimated drop windows.

```python
import dropcatch

# Query a .pl domain directly from NASK registry
domain = dropcatch.query_nask("nask.pl")

print(f"Domain: {domain.name}")
print(f"Status: {domain.status}")
print(f"Expiration Date: {domain.expiration_date}")

# Check if it's currently in the 30-day blind period before deletion
if domain.is_blocked:
    print(f"Domain is BLOCKED. Will drop around: {domain.estimated_drop_date}")
```


## Additional domain registries

Support for additional domain registries may be added in future versions.
