publicsuffix

publicsuffix-js

Implements the algorithm to distinguish separate domains (for example browsers need to know that for their cookies and authorization models). Unfortunately there is no better algorithm than looking-up a published list.

See http://publicsuffix.org/ for more details.

Ideas for later (or if you want to help)

• Changing the list to a reverse hash tree could be more space efficient. Lookup would maybe also be faster, but there is not efficiency problem for me. A hash tree like {uk: {co: ...

• Provide a mean to update the list at runtime. It's hard to do that in the browser though.
