\section introduction Introduction
|
|
|
|
The goal of ldns is to simplify DNS programming, it supports recent RFCs
|
|
like the DNSSEC documents, and allow developers to easily create software
|
|
conforming to current RFCs, and experimental software for current Internet
|
|
drafts. A secondary benefit of using ldns is speed, because ldns is written
|
|
in C, and although it is not optimized for performance, it should be a lot
|
|
faster than Perl.
|
|
|
|
The first main tool to use ldns is Drill, from which part of the library was
|
|
derived. From version 1.0.0 on, drill is included in the ldns release
|
|
and will not be distributed seperately anymore. The library also includes some
|
|
other examples and tools to show how it can be used. These can be found in the
|
|
examples/ directory in the tarball.
|
|
|
|
ldns depends on OpenSSL for it's cryptographic functions.
|
|
Feature list
|
|
|
|
- Transparent IPv4 and IPv6 support (overridable if necessary),
|
|
- TSIG support,
|
|
- DNSSEC support; signing and verification,
|
|
- small size,
|
|
- online documentation as well as manual pages.
|
|
|
|
If you want to send us patches please use the code from subversion (trunk).

\section using_ldns Using ldns
|
|
|
|
Almost all interaction between an application and ldns goes through the ldns
|
|
data structures (\ref ldns_rr, \ref ldns_pkt, etc.). These are input or
|
|
output to the functions of ldns. For example, \ref ldns_zone_new_frm_fp
|
|
reads a zone from a \c FILE pointer, and returns an \ref ldns_zone
|
|
structure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's use Drill as an example. Drill is a tool much like dig, whose most
|
|
basic function is to send 1 query to a nameserver and print the response.
|
|
|
|
To be able to do this, drill uses the resolver module of ldns, which acts as
|
|
a stub resolver. The resolver module uses the net module to actually send
|
|
the query that drill requested. It then uses the wire2host module to
|
|
translate the response and place it in ldns' internal structures. These are
|
|
passed back to drill, which then uses the host2str module to print the
|
|
response in presentation format.
|
|
|
|
\section gettingstarted Getting Started
|
|
|
|
See the \ref design page for a very high level description of the design
|
|
choices made for ldns.
|
|
|
|
For an overview of the functions and types ldns provides, you can check out
|
|
the \ref ldns ldns header file descriptions.
|
|
|
|
If you want to see some libdns action, you can read our tutorials:
|
|
- \ref tutorial1_mx
|
|
- \ref tutorial2_zone
|
|
- \ref tutorial3_signzone
|
|
|
|
Or you can just use the menu above to browse through the API docs.
