README.markdown

Alternative (more granular) approach to a DNS library.

Completely usable DNS library. Most 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. For instance I'm pondering if a zone-like structure should be implemented in the library.

Features:

  • UDP/TCP queries, IPv4 and IPv6;
  • Fast, reply speed should be around 30K qps. Parsing RR (from zonefiles) goes with 25K RR/s. This is expected to be optimized further.
  • Client and server side programming (mimicking the http package);
  • Asynchronous queries for client and server;
  • RFC 1035 zone file parsing.
  • DNSSEC;
  • EDNS0;
  • AXFR/IXFR;
  • TSIG;
  • DNS name compression;

Sample programs can be found in the _examples directory. They can be build with: make examples (after the dns package has been installed)

Have fun!
