Eric Gavaletz 41945815b8 Further patching for GAE compatibility. 
Since net.ListenTCP, net.ListenUDP and net.TCPListener are not defined
in the GAE standard library these build flags will stop those files from
being imported.  A better solution would have been to break up this
monolithic package into smaller parts.

README.markdown

Alternative (more granular) approach to a DNS library.

Less is more.

Complete and usable DNS library. All widely used Resource Records are supported, including the DNSSEC types. It follows a lean and mean philosophy. If there is stuff you should know as a DNS programmer there isn't a convenience function for it. Server side and client side programming is supported, i.e. you can build servers and resolvers with it.

If you like this, you may also be interested in:

Goals

  • KISS;
  • Fast
  • Small API, if its easy to code in Go, don't make a function for it.

Users

A not-so-up-to-date-list-that-may-be-actually-current:

Features

  • UDP/TCP queries, IPv4 and IPv6;
  • RFC 1035 zone file parsing ($INCLUDE, $ORIGIN, $TTL and $GENERATE (for all record types) are supported;
  • Fast:
    • Reply speed around ~ 80K qps (faster hardware results in more qps);
    • Parsing RRs with ~ 100K RR/s, that's 5M records in about 50 seconds;
  • Server side programming (mimicking the net/http package);
  • Client side programming;
  • DNSSEC: signing, validating and key generation for DSA, RSA and ECDSA;
  • EDNS0, NSID;
  • AXFR/IXFR;
  • TSIG;
  • DNS name compression.

Have fun!

Building

Building is done with the go tool. If you have setup your GOPATH correctly, the following should work:

go get github.com/miekg/dns
go build github/com/miekg/dns

A short "how to use the API" is at the beginning of dns.go (this also will show when you call go doc github.com/miekg/dns. Sample programs can be found in the ex directory. They can also be build with: go build.
