Example

(more detailed example)

lets imagine you use shell command whois facebook.com and want to parse it.

Input: domain name and $whoisText is response of shell command

//set domain name and output of its whois data
$parser = new \Shapito27\Whois\WhoisParser('facebook.com', $whoisText);

//run parsing whois data
$whoisParserResult = $parser->run();

//check if any error
if (!empty($whoisParserResult->getErrorMessage())) {
    die($whoisParserResult->getErrorMessage());
}

//get and output whois object 
var_dump($whoisParserResult->getWhois());

Output:

Shapito27\Whois\Whois::__set_state(array(
  'status' => 1,
  'creationDate' => '1997-03-29 05:00:00',
  'updateDate' => '2020-03-10 18:53:59',
  'expirationDate' => '2028-03-30 04:00:00',
  'nameServers' => 
 array (
   0 => 'a.ns.facebook.com',
   1 => 'b.ns.facebook.com',
   2 => 'c.ns.facebook.com',
   3 => 'd.ns.facebook.com',
 ),
  'registrar' => 
 Shapito27\Whois\Registrar::__set_state(array(
    'id' => '3237',
    'name' => 'RegistrarSafe, LLC',
    'abuseContactEmail' => 'abusecomplaints@registrarsafe.com',
    'abuseContactPhone' => '+1.6503087004',
 )),
  'registryDomainId' => '2320948_DOMAIN_COM-VRSN',
  'errorMessage' => NULL,
))

Parse inside loop

To avoid parsing config on each iterration define parser outside the loop.

$domains = [
'facebook.com' => 'facebook whois text',
'google.com' => 'google whois text'
];

//set domain name and output of its whois data
$parser = new \Shapito27\Whois\WhoisParser();

foreach($domains as $domain => $whoisText) {
   $parser->setDomainName($domain);
   //set formatter each iteration
   $parser->detectFormat();
   $parser->setWhoisText($whoisText);
   
   //run parsing whois data
   $whoisParserResult = $parser->run();
   
   //check if any error
   if (!empty($whoisParserResult->getErrorMessage())) {
        die($whoisParserResult->getErrorMessage());
    }
   
   //get and output whois object 
   var_dump($whoisParserResult->getWhois());
   //display errors
   var_dump($whoisParserResult->getErrorMessage());
}
