This looks like pretty solid code, but I'm not 100% sure it'll work for all possible hostfile contents, such as tab characters, different encodings, or comments. Maybe it would be easier to bring in a tool like https://www.npmjs.com/package/hostile which has a well-tested hostfile parser.

This was a pretty quick and dirty way of improving the checking. Your are right that can be fooled by domains in comments, which the previous code had a problem with as well. I'll take a look hostile and see what that looks like to bring in.

Currently the host file check will not add a domain if a subdomain of that domain already exists.
For example if the host file contains
127.0.0.1 sub.example.comand the user is setting upexample.comit will be skipped and not added to the hostfile.
