# Alternative (more granular) approach to a DNS library

Complete and usable DNS library. All widely used Resource Records are
|
2012-01-27 07:51:24 +00:00
|
|
|
supported, including the DNSSEC types. It follows a lean and mean philosophy.
|
2012-01-11 21:01:40 +00:00
|
|
|
If there is stuff you should know as a DNS programmer there isn't a convenience
|
2012-05-03 06:59:02 +00:00
|
|
|
function for it. Server side and client side programming is supported, i.e. you
|
|
|
|
can build servers and resolvers with it.

Building is done with the `go` tool. If you have setup your GOPATH
|
2012-12-02 07:13:57 +00:00
|
|
|
correctly, the following should work:
|
2011-01-01 21:07:47 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2012-08-09 21:38:47 +00:00
|
|
|
go get github.com/miekg/dns
|
2013-10-07 20:02:55 +00:00
|
|
|
go build github.com/miekg/dns

## Examples

2012-12-01 20:29:47 +00:00
|
|
|
A short "how to use the API" is at the beginning of dns.go (this also will show
|
2014-01-28 10:55:31 +00:00
|
|
|
when you call `godoc github.com/miekg/dns`).
|
2013-10-13 10:23:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|

Example programs can be found in the `github.com/miekg/exdns` repository.
