We strive to make park.io the easiest and best domain backordering service. I personally built and love the code that powers this site, and I regularly refine and care for it so that it works simply and efficiently. It is important to me that it is useful and provides a needed service, so that ultimately it is a well-crafted product that gives value to others.
We notice that some other hackers are scraping our site for the list of domains and the dates that they are dropping. That’s cool - I like the hacker spirit and I understand where they are coming from. But to make life better for them, we are now providing endpoints to make it easier to collect this information. First, you can get the list of dropping domains in json format here:
To get a specific TLD, you can specify it in the url, for example for .to domains, you would use:
https://park.io/domains/index/to.json
This would give an output like the following:
{
page: 1,
current: 15,
count: 15,
prevPage: false,
nextPage: false,
pageCount: 1,
limit: 20,
success: true,
domains: [
{
id: "439097",
name: "brooklyn.to",
date_available: "2015-10-11",
tld: "to"
},
{
id: "456143",
name: "headcase.to",
date_available: "2015-10-11",
tld: "to"
},
{
id: "449580",
name: "tanio.to",
date_available: "2015-10-12",
tld: "to"
}
...The domains are paged, so you can specify the page you want in the url parameters. For example:
https://park.io/domains/index/ly/page:2.json
In addition to this you can also get a list of the current auctions in JSON format here:
Let us know if you have any feedback or would like access to any other park.io data in JSON format. And let us know if you build anything cool using this data.
Update: We have added an all option, so that you can get all TLDs with one request, and also added a limit query parameter, so that you do not need to do separate requests for paging. For example:
