PyEPP

This a Python API on EPP protocol to connect to any registry systems that support EPP and manage the registry objects. It supports the bellow RFCs:

Note

This is an early version and not stable yet. Please use with care.

Installation

pip install pyepp

Usage example

from datetime import date

from pyepp import EppCommunicator
from pyepp.domain import Domain, DomainData, DSRecordData, DNSSECAlgorithm, DigestTypeEnum
from pyepp.contact import Contact, ContactData, PostalInfoData, AddressData

config = {
    "server": "epp.test.net.nz",
    "port": "700",
    "client_cert": "/PATH/TO/YOUR/CLIENT_CERTIFICATE.crt",
    "client_key": "/PATH/TO/YOUR/CLIENT_KEY.pem"
}

epp = EppCommunicator(**config)

connect = epp.connect()
login = epp.login("user_name", "password")
# Sends a hello request and receive greeting in respond
hello = epp.hello()

contact = Contact(epp)

# Check contacts availability
contact_check = contact.check(['contact-1', 'contact-2'])

# Create a new contact
contact_create_params = ContactData(
    id='contact-1',
    email='epp@example.net.nz',
    postal_info=PostalInfoData(
        name='Registrar 1',
        organization='Registrar 1',
        address=AddressData(
            street_1='18 Registrar Street',
            street_2='Registrar CBD',
            city='Registrar',
            country_code='NZ',
            province='Registrar',
            postal_code='6011'
        ),
    ),
    phone='+64.111111111'
)
contact_create = contact.create(contact_create_params)

# Get contact details
contact_info = contact.info('contact-1')

domain = Domain(epp)
# Check domains availability
domain_check = domain.check(['domain1.nz', 'domain2.nz'])

# Create a new domain name
domain_create_params = DomainData(
    domain_name='example.nz',
    registrant='contact-1',
    admin='contact-1',
    tech='contact-1',
    billing='contact-3',
    period=3,
    host=['01y.test-indwrx2vkicn2otgm3otav5wpnzvjd.co.nz', '0d9x6239.example.co.nz'],
    dns_sec=DSRecordData(
        key_tag=1235,
        algorithm=DNSSECAlgorithm.DSA_SHA_1.value,
        digest_type=DigestTypeEnum.SHA_1.value,
        digest='8cdb09364147aed879d12c68d615f98af5900b73'
    ),
)
domain_create = domain.create(domain_create_params)

# Renew a domain name
renew_domain = domain.renew(domain_name='example-1.nz', expiry_date=date(2024, 2, 23), period=2)
