FUNCTIONS
    cat(...)
        cat(map, domain = defaultdomain)
        Returns the entire map as a dictionary. Optionally domain can be
        specified but it defaults to the system default domain.

    get_default_domain(...)
        get_default_domain() -> str
        Corresponds to the C library yp_get_default_domain() call, returning
        the default NIS domain.

    maps(...)
        maps(domain = defaultdomain)
        Returns an array of all available NIS maps within a domain. If domain
        is not specified it defaults to the system default domain.

    match(...)
        match(key, map, domain = defaultdomain)
        Corresponds to the C library yp_match() call, returning the value of
        key in the given map. Optionally domain can be specified but it
        defaults to the system default domain.
