Overview

Domain name generator.

This class can be used to generate random words of various length. Options:

  • length: the length of the random word

  • suffix: a suffix to append to the random world (default is none)

Example:

DomainGenerator.new(length: 2, suffix: ".domain.tld")
# => rb.domain.tld

A block can be used to validate the generated domain. It must return true to validate the domain, otherwise a new one is proposed. This feature can be used to validate the domain against certain rules.

Example:

DomainGenerator.new(suffix: ".domain.tld") do |generated_domain|
  ["admin", "www"].include?(generated_domain)
end
