dns2

NPM version Build Status

A DNS Server and Client Implementation in Pure JavaScript with no dependencies.

Features

  • Server and Client
  • Lot of Type Supported
  • Extremely lightweight
  • DNS over UDP, TCP, HTTPS Supported

Installation

$ npm install dns2

Example Client

Lookup any records available for the domain lsong.org.

const DNS = require('dns2');

const dns = new DNS();

(async () => {
  const result = await dns.resolveA('google.com');
  console.log(result.answers);
})();

Example Server

const dns = require('..');

const { Packet } = dns;

const server = dns.createServer((request, send, rinfo) => {
  const response = Packet.createResponseFromRequest(request);
  const [ question ] = request.questions;
  const { name } = question;
  response.answers.push({
    name,
    type: Packet.TYPE.A,
    class: Packet.CLASS.IN,
    ttl: 300,
    address: '8.8.8.8'
  });
  send(response);
});

server.on('request', (request, response, rinfo) => {
  console.log(request.header.id, request.questions[0]);
});

server.listen(5333);

Then you can test your DNS server:

$ dig @127.0.0.1 -p5333 lsong.org

Note that when implementing your own lookups, the contents of the query will be found in request.questions[0].name.
