In Nodejs, how to extract just domain.com from url?

Given urls like these

www.yahoo.com
support.abc.com/whatever?a=1
clear.com
biz.co.uk/how

How do I get

yahoo.com
abc.com
clear.com
biz.co.uk

Url.parse.hostname returns url including subdomain and how would nodejs or browser know biz is domain name not subdomain

Using the Public Suffix List information, for example through a library like tldjs for JavaScript.
