Getting Started
A fastdns server example
package main
import (
"log"
"net"
"os"
"github.com/phuslu/fastdns"
)
type DNSHandler struct {
Debug bool
}
func (h *DNSHandler) ServeDNS(rw fastdns.ResponseWriter, req *fastdns.Message) {
if h.Debug {
log.Printf("%s: CLASS %s TYPE %s\n", req.Domain, req.Question.Class, req.Question.Type)
}
switch req.Question.Type {
case fastdns.TypeA:
fastdns.HOST(rw, req, 60, []net.IP{{8, 8, 8, 8}})
case fastdns.TypeAAAA:
fastdns.HOST(rw, req, 60, []net.IP{net.ParseIP("2001:4860:4860::8888")})
case fastdns.TypeCNAME:
fastdns.CNAME(rw, req, 60, []string{"dns.google"}, []net.IP{{8, 8, 8, 8}, {8, 8, 4, 4}})
case fastdns.TypeSRV:
fastdns.SRV(rw, req, 60, []net.SRV{{"www.google.com", 443, 1000, 1000}})
case fastdns.TypeNS:
fastdns.NS(rw, req, 60, []net.NS{{"ns1.google.com"}, {"ns2.google.com"}})
case fastdns.TypeMX:
fastdns.MX(rw, req, 60, []net.MX{{"mail.gmail.com", 10}, {"smtp.gmail.com", 10}})
case fastdns.TypeSOA:
fastdns.SOA(rw, req, 60, net.NS{"ns1.google"}, net.NS{"ns2.google"}, 60, 90, 90, 180, 60)
case fastdns.TypePTR:
fastdns.PTR(rw, req, 0, "ptr.google.com")
case fastdns.TypeTXT:
fastdns.TXT(rw, req, 60, "greetingfromgoogle")
default:
fastdns.Error(rw, req, fastdns.RcodeNXDomain)
}
}
func main() {
addr := ":53"
server := &fastdns.ForkServer{
Handler: &DNSHandler{
Debug: os.Getenv("DEBUG") != "",
},
Stats: &fastdns.CoreStats{
Prefix: "coredns_",
Family: "1",
Proto: "udp",
Server: "dns://" + addr,
Zone: ".",
},
ErrorLog: log.Default(),
}
err := server.ListenAndServe(addr)
if err != nil {
log.Fatalf("dnsserver error: %+v", err)
}
}
