This library is a DNS-over-HTTPS client for Common Lisp.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The ambition is to transform it into a fully-featured DNS resolver
|
||
|
instead of piggy-backing on the HTTPS implementation, but ...
|
||
|
baby-steps!
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note that there is no Common Lisp HTTP client that fully supports the
|
||
|
HTTP2 protocol at the moment, so you can not expect this library to
|
||
|
provide equivalent performance to a native DNS resolver (yet).
|
||
|
|
||
|
## API
|
||
|
|
||
|
The API is kept as simple as it can be.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Types
|
||
|
|
||
|
The types of this library are implemented as several structs that
|
||
|
support binary (de-)serialisation via [lisp-binary][].
|
||
|
|
||
|
The existing structs are as follows and directly implement the
|
||
|
corresponding definitions from [RFC 1035][]:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `dns-header`
|
||
|
* `dns-question`
|
||
|
* `dns-rr`
|
||
|
* `dns-message`
|
||
|
|
||
|
All relevant field accessors for these structs are exported and can be
|
||
|
used to inspect query results.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Functions
|
||
|
|
||
|
All lookup functions are of the type `(function (string &key doh-url)
|
||
|
(dns-message))` and signal a `dns:doh-error` condition for
|
||
|
unsuccessful requests.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If `:doh-url` is unspecified, Google's public DNS-over-HTTPS servers
|
||
|
at [dns.google][https://dns.google] will be used.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Currently implemented lookup functions:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `lookup-a`
|
||
|
* `lookup-mx`
|
||
|
* `lookup-txt`
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Example usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```lisp
|
||
|
DNS> (dns-message-answer (lookup-a "git.tazj.in."))
|
||
|
#(#S(DNS-RR
|
||
|
:NAME #S(QNAME :START-AT 29 :NAMES #(12))
|
||
|
:TYPE A
|
||
|
:CLASS 1
|
||
|
:TTL 286
|
||
|
:RDLENGTH 4
|
||
|
:RDATA #(34 98 120 189)))
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## TODO
|
||
|
|
||
|
Various things in this library are currently broken because I only
|
||
|
implemented it to work for my blog setup, but these things will be
|
||
|
ironed out.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Most importantly, the following needs to be fixed:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Each qname *fragment* needs to track its offset, not each qname.
|
||
|
* The RDATA for a TXT record can have multiple counted strings.
|
||
|
* qnames should be canonicalised after parsing.
