Welcome to my URL-Info-getter script

Why?

I wanted to learn Rust, so I decided to work on this simple script... I could easily do this in Python or JS, but challenging yourself is more fun hehe.

How it works?

This script fetches data from Security Trails's API to get some info about the specified URL (you MUST specify your API Key - it's free yayy).

What this program currently do?

Prints the current_dns 'A record' ip and ip_organization field (at index 0) that the API sent:

"current_dns": {
    "a": {
        "values": [
        {
            "ip": "<IP Addres of requested URL",
            "ip_organization": "ip_organization name"
        }
    ]
}

Gets 5 firsts subdomains of specified URL

{
    "subdomain_count":<number>,
    "subdomains":[...]
}

How to run

If you have rustup installed, you can simply run

cargo run -- -k <YOUR KEY> -u <URL>

This will build the program in debug mode, creating a /target dir
