I made a script that opens the csv file which contains multiple domain names and then uses python-whois module to find the emails for each domain.
import whoisimport csvwith open('emails.csv', 'r', newline='') as f: reader = csv.reader(f) distro = [row for row in reader]with open('emails_done.csv', 'w', newline='') as f: wr = csv.writer(f) for s in distro: try: if whois.whois(s[0]).emails is not None: if len(whois.whois(s[0]).emails[0]) == 1: wr.writerow([s[0]] + [whois.whois(s[0]).emails]) else: wr.writerow([s[0]] + whois.whois(s[0]).emails) elif whois.whois(s[0]).registrant_email is not None: print(whois.whois(s[0]).registrant_email[1]) wr.writerow([s[0]] + [whois.whois(s[0]).registrant_email]) else: wr.writerow([s[0]] + ['nothing found']) except Exception as e: print(e) wr.writerow([s[0]] + ['invaliddomain'])The problem is that this module gives me different data for the same domain every time I run a code. For example, the first time I used ".emails" method on the domain it returned a list of 2 emails, but when I re-run the same code for the second time it returned me a string with 1 email instead of a list. ".emails" method I used in the code returns a list of all emails it found from the whois data if there's more than 1 email available, but it returns a string instead of list if there's only 1 email available, so I need to convert this string into the list so I can put it in csv.writerow method. Is there a mistake from my side or it's just the way this module works and there's nothing I can do about it?
