<p>Matt,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I'm glad that 1.4.1 helps.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>To answer your larger question, I don't think you are overlooking anything. Perhaps the largest issue will come from jCard, which is the JSON equivalent of vCard. The IETF specified its use in RDAP to solve some internationalization problems, but with that
flexibility comes some complications.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I am looking at new features for NicInfo that I hope will help with the problem you have described. I'll keep you informed as to that progress.</p>

<div dir="auto">Hi Andy</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">version 1.4.1 resolves the issues I was having with --json and --jv. Thanks for fixing this so quickly. </div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">The issue for me now is identifying a common set of fields across registry records that contain the information I want. The start and end IP addresses seem common and easy to extract. However, registration dates and organization information
appear to me to be a bit more scattered in the records, so I'm not sure how to consistently extract the same information across records. Is this in fact the situation or am I overlooking something?</div>

<p>Hi Martin,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>It would appear that the --json and --jv options have a bug where they output in Ruby form and not JSON.</p>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I put a bug in the issue tracker to note this: <a href="https://github.com/arineng/nicinfo/issues/32" target="_blank">https://github.com/arineng/nicinfo/issues/32</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The fix is probably simple, and I'll dig into it as soon as I am able.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>With regard to a delimited file with a set of fields, I am currently in the process of adding new features that might accomplish what you are after. However, it has required refactoring of a great deal of the code and the progress is a bit slow. I'll keep
you apprised of the progress.</div>

<div dir="auto">Hi<br>
</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">I would like to extract some specific information about IP address allocations (e.g., startAddress, endAddress, handle, organization name, organization contact, last update date) in a systematic way. If I use nicinfo manually, I usually see
the information I want. When I try to retrieve the same information ifrom nicinfo's JSON format or via nicinfo's --jv options, I'm running into a variety of problems. I expect I'm doing something wrong. If anyone could offer any tips on how to a) determine
the most common fields in RDAP records for IP address range allocations (including the corresponding organization information) and b) how to most efficiently produce a delimited file of selected fields from a set of RDAP queries I would really appreciate
it. </div>
