# 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.
|
|
|
|
We try to keep the "master" branch as sane as possible and at the bleeding edge of standards,
|
|
avoiding breaking changes wherever reasonable. We support the last two versions of Go.
|
|
|
|
# Goals
|
|
|
|
* KISS;
|
|
* Fast;
|
|
* Small API. If it's easy to code in Go, don't make a function for it.

# 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 ~ 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, ECDSA and Ed25519;
|
|
* EDNS0, NSID, Cookies;
|
|
* AXFR/IXFR;
|
|
* TSIG, SIG(0);
|
|
* DNS over TLS: optional encrypted connection between client and server;
|
|
* DNS name compression;
|
|
* Depends only on the standard library.

# 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
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
A short "how to use the API" is at the beginning of doc.go (this also will show
|
|
when you call `godoc github.com/miekg/dns`).
|
|
|
|
Example programs can be found in the `github.com/miekg/exdns` repository.
|
|
|
|
