# cdns-rs
v 2.0.0
<img src="https://cdn.4neko.org/cdns_rs_logo.webp" width="280"/> <img src="https://cdn.4neko.org/source_avail.webp" width="280"/> <img src="https://cdn.4neko.org/mit_mpl_eupl_2.webp" width="280"/>
Implementation of a library for performing client-side DNS queries that is also capable of looking up a hostname in the `/etc/hosts` file. It loads settings from either `/etc/resolv.conf` or user input.
So it acts like libc's `gethostbyname(3)` or `gethostbyaddr(3)`. The configuration can be overriden.
This library supports ~~both~~ `sync` ~~and `async`~~ modes.
Also the experimental IDN (international domain names) were added.
From `resolv.conf` the crate recognises:
- timeout
- rotate
- inet6
- single-request
- single-request-reopen
- use-vc
Todo:
- trust-ad
- no-reload
- edns0
- ip6-bytestring
- attempts
- ndots
## Functionality
- Sending and receiving responses via TCP/UDP
- Reacting on the message truncated event by trying TCP
- Parsing /etc/hosts (all options)
- Partial parsing /etc/resolve.conf (all options)
- Sequential and pipelined requests.
- DNS-over-TLS
- IDN international domain names (experimental)
## Supported OSes
- GNU/Linux (in general)
- FreeBSD
- OpenBSD
- NetBSD
- DragonflyBSD
- other UNIX alike OSes
# Extension
To use the DNS-over-TLS, the record to system's resolv.conf can be added:
```text
nameserver 1.1.1.1#@853#cloudflare-dns.com
```
All text after the # is considered as extension if there is no `space` between IP address and '#' (as in example above).
# Features
`enable_IDN_support` - (enabled by default) allows to resolve IDN
`use_sync` - enabled a sync code base
`use_sync_tls` - enables a TLS support (HTTPS is not yet functional)
`no_error_output` - does not output any errors to stderr
## ToDo
- DNS-over-HTTPS
- Parse /etc/nsswitch.conf
- DNSSEC
- OPT_NO_CHECK_NAMES
- resolv.conf (search, domain, sortlist)
Usage:
- see ./examples/
Simple Example:
```ignore
fn main()
{
// init global config (resolv.conf, hosts)
DnsConfigs::<DnsConfigGlobal>::init_global_config(None).unwrap();
let qse = QuerySetup::default().measure_time(true);
let mut res0 =
Resolver::<ResolverStdErr>::new(GLOBAL_CONFIG.get().unwrap(), ResolverStdErr);
let req0 =
QDnsRequests::resolve_a_aaaa_request(1, 2, ResolveConfigFamily::INET4, "4neko.org", qse)
.unwrap();
let res = res0.query(&req0).unwrap();
println!("{}", res);
}
```
ToSockAddr
```ignore
// run in shell `nc -u -l 44444` a "test" should be received
fn main()
{
let udp = UdpSocket::bind("127.0.0.1:33333").unwrap();
// init config
DnsConfigs::<DnsConfigGlobal>::init_global_config(None).unwrap();
udp.connect(QDnsSockerAddr::resolve("localhost:44444").unwrap()).unwrap();
udp.send("test".as_bytes()).unwrap();
return;
}
```
### Custom resolv.conf use TCP:
```ignore
fn main()
{
let cfg =
"nameserver 127.0.0.53 \n \
options edns0 trust-ad single-request \n \
search .";
let hosts = DnsConfigs::<DnsConfigUser>::load_host(Path::new("/etc/hosts")).unwrap();
let cfg =
DnsConfigs
::<DnsConfigUser>
::new_custom(
DnsConfigSource::SourceInstance(hosts),
DnsConfigSource::SourceText(cfg)
)
.unwrap();
let mut res0 =
Resolver::<ResolverStdErr>::new(&cfg, ResolverStdErr);
let qse = QuerySetup::default().measure_time(true);
let req0 =
QDnsRequests::resolve_a_aaaa_request(1, 2, ResolveConfigFamily::INET4_INET6, "4neko.org", qse)
.unwrap();
let res = res0.query(&req0).unwrap();
println!("{}", res);
}
```
### Custom resolv.conf use TLS:
```ignore
fn main()
{
let cfg =
"nameserver 1.1.1.1#@853#cloudflare-dns.com \n \
options single-request \n \
search .";
let hosts =
DnsConfigs::<DnsConfigUser>::load_host(Path::new("/etc/hosts")).unwrap();
let cfg =
DnsConfigs
::<DnsConfigUser>
::new_custom(
DnsConfigSource::SourceInstance(hosts),
DnsConfigSource::SourceText(cfg)
)
.unwrap();
let mut res0 =
Resolver::<ResolverStdErr>::new(&cfg, ResolverStdErr);
let qse = QuerySetup::default().measure_time(true);
let mut req0 =
QDnsRequests::resolve_a_aaaa_request(1, 2, ResolveConfigFamily::INET4_INET6, "4neko.org", qse)
.unwrap();
req0.add_request(3, QType::MX, "4neko.org").unwrap();
let res = res0.query(&req0).unwrap();
println!("{}", res);
}
