I am getting output "com" instead of "google.com"

I have tried changing sites name but every site is showing "com" 

from tld import get_tld

def get_domain_name(url):
    domain_name= get_tld(url)
    return domain_name

print(get_domain_name("https://www.google.com"))

I expect output to be "google.com" I have tried this code on Piaza workspace terminal

  • Why? TLD is to [Extract the top level domain (TLD) from the URL given](https://pypi.org/project/tld/) – Alderven Apr 19 '19 at 13:44

    "com" is the top-level domain. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top-level_domain – Bill the Lizard Apr 19 '19 at 13:46

    I don't think it's a duplicate of those, because I don't think the OP really wants the TLD at all. See @cssko's answer. – brunns Apr 19 '19 at 13:47
  • I agree with @brunns. Would it be appropriate to edit the question to reflect what Ritik really wants, the first level domain? – cssko Apr 19 '19 at 13:53

What you're asking for is the first level domain, so you'd use the function get_fld

    from tld import get_fld
    print(get_fld("https://www.google.com")

    >>> google.com

See the documentation at readthedocs
