EV::ADNS - lightweight asynchronous dns queries using EV and libadns |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
SYNOPSIS |
| 5 |
use EV; |
| 6 |
use EV::ADNS; |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
EV::ADNS::submit "example.com", EV::ADNS::r_a, 0, sub { |
| 9 |
my ($status, $expires, @a) = @_; |
| 10 |
warn $a[0]; # "127.13.166.3" etc. |
| 11 |
}; |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
EV::loop; |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
DESCRIPTION |
| 16 |
This is a simple interface to libadns (asynchronous dns) that integrates |
| 17 |
well and automatically into the EV event loop. The documentation for |
| 18 |
libadns is vital to understand this module, see |
| 19 |
<http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ian/adns/>. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
You can use it only with EV (directly or indirectly, e.g. via Glib::EV). |
| 22 |
Apart from loading and using the "submit" function you need not do |
| 23 |
anything (except run an EV event loop). |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
OVERVIEW |
| 26 |
All the constants/enums from adns.h are available in the EV::ADNS |
| 27 |
namespace, without the "adns_" prefix, e.g. "adns_r_a" becomes |
| 28 |
"EV::ADNS::r_a", "adns__qtf_deref" becomes "EV::ADNS::_qtf_deref" and so |
| 29 |
on. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
FUNCTIONS |
| 32 |
$query = EV::ADNS::submit "domain", $rrtype, $flags, $cb |
| 33 |
Submits a new request to be handled. See the "adns_submit" C |
| 34 |
function description for more details. The function optionally |
| 35 |
returns a query object which can be used to cancel an in-progress |
| 36 |
request. You do not need to store the query object, even if you |
| 37 |
ignore it the query will proceed. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
The callback will be invoked with a result status, the time the |
| 40 |
resource record validity expires and zero or more resource records, |
| 41 |
one scalar per result record. Example: |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
sub adns_cb { |
| 44 |
my ($status, $expires, @rr) = @_; |
| 45 |
if ($status == EV::ADNS::s_ok) { |
| 46 |
use JSON::XS; |
| 47 |
warn to_json \@rr; |
| 48 |
} |
| 49 |
} |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
The format of result records varies considerably, here is some |
| 52 |
cursory documentation of how each record will look like, depending |
| 53 |
on the query type: |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
EV::ADNS::rr_a |
| 56 |
An IPv4 address in dotted quad (string) form. |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
EV::ADNS::r_ns_raw, EV::ADNS::r_cname, EV::ADNS::r_ptr, |
| 59 |
EV::ADNS::r_ptr_raw |
| 60 |
The resource record as a simple string. |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
EV::ADNS::r_txt |
| 63 |
An arrayref of strings. |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
EV::ADNS::r_ns |
| 66 |
A "host address", a hostname with any number of addresses (hint |
| 67 |
records). |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
Currently only the hostname will be stored, so this is alway an |
| 70 |
arrayref with a single element of the hostname. Future versions |
| 71 |
might add additional address entries. |
| 72 |
|
| 73 |
EV::ADNS::r_hinfo |
| 74 |
An arrayref consisting of the two strings. |
| 75 |
|
| 76 |
EV::ADNS::r_rp, EV::ADNS::r_rp_raw |
| 77 |
An arrayref with two strings. |
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
EV::ADNS::r_mx |
| 80 |
An arrayref consisting of the priority and a "host address" (see |
| 81 |
"EV::ADNS::r_ns"). Example: |
| 82 |
|
| 83 |
[10, "mail10.example.com"] |
| 84 |
|
| 85 |
EV::ADNS::r_mx_raw |
| 86 |
An arrayref consisting of the priority and the hostname, e.g. |
| 87 |
"[10, "mail.example.com"]". |
| 88 |
|
| 89 |
EV::ADNS::r_soa, EV::ADNS::r_soa_raw |
| 90 |
An arrayref consisting of the primary nameserver, admin name, |
| 91 |
serial, refresh, retry expire and minimum times, e.g.: |
| 92 |
|
| 93 |
["ns.example.net", "hostmaster@example.net", 2000001102, 86400, 21600, 2592000, 172800] |
| 94 |
|
| 95 |
The "raw" form doesn't mangle the e-mail address. |
| 96 |
|
| 97 |
EV::ADNS::r_srv_raw |
| 98 |
An arrayref consisting of the priority, weight, port and |
| 99 |
hostname, e.g.: |
| 100 |
|
| 101 |
[10, 10, 5060, "sip1.example.net"] |
| 102 |
|
| 103 |
EV::ADNS::r_srv |
| 104 |
The same as "EV::ADNS::r_srv_raw", but the hostname is replaced |
| 105 |
by a "host address" (see "EV::ADNS::r_ns"). |
| 106 |
|
| 107 |
EV::ADNS::r_unknown |
| 108 |
A single octet string with the raw contents. |
| 109 |
|
| 110 |
anything else |
| 111 |
Currently "undef". |
| 112 |
|
| 113 |
$query->cancel |
| 114 |
Cancels a request that is in progress. |
| 115 |
|
| 116 |
SEE ALSO |
| 117 |
EV, Net::ADNS another interface to adns, maybe better, but without real |
| 118 |
support to integrate it into other event loops. |
