Struct Resolver

pub struct Resolver<P: ConnectionProvider> { /* private fields */ }

An asynchronous resolver for DNS generic over async Runtimes.

The lookup methods on AsyncResolver spawn background tasks to perform queries. The futures returned by a AsyncResolver and the corresponding background tasks need not be spawned on the same executor, or be in the same thread.

NOTE If lookup futures returned by a AsyncResolver and the background tasks are spawned on two separate CurrentThread executors, one thread cannot run both executors simultaneously, so the run or block_on functions will cause the thread to deadlock. If both the background work and the lookup futures are intended to be run on the same thread, they should be spawned on the same executor.

Implementations

impl Resolver<GenericConnector<TokioRuntimeProvider>>

pub fn tokio(config: ResolverConfig, options: ResolverOpts) -> Self

Available on crate feature tokio-runtime only.

Construct a new Tokio based AsyncResolver with the provided configuration.

Arguments

• config - configuration, name_servers, etc. for the Resolver
• options - basic lookup options for the resolver

pub fn tokio_from_system_conf() -> Result<Self, ResolveError>

Available on (Unix or Windows) and crate feature system-config and crate feature tokio-runtime only.

Constructs a new Tokio based Resolver with the system configuration.

This will use /etc/resolv.conf on Unix OSes and the registry on Windows.

impl<R: ConnectionProvider> Resolver<R>

pub fn new(config: ResolverConfig, options: ResolverOpts, provider: R) -> Self

Construct a new generic AsyncResolver with the provided configuration.

see [TokioAsyncResolver::tokio(..)] instead.

Arguments

• config - configuration, name_servers, etc. for the Resolver
• options - basic lookup options for the resolver
• provider - connection provider, for DNS connections, I/O, and timers

pub fn from_system_conf(runtime: R) -> Result<Self, ResolveError>

Available on (Unix or Windows) and crate feature system-config only.

Constructs a new Resolver with the system configuration.

see [TokioAsyncResolver::tokio_from_system_conf(..)] instead.

This will use /etc/resolv.conf on Unix OSes and the registry on Windows.

pub fn clear_cache(&self)

Flushes/Removes all entries from the cache

pub fn config(&self) -> &ResolverConfig

Read the config for this resolver.

pub fn options(&self) -> &ResolverOpts

Read the options for this resolver.

impl<P: ConnectionProvider> Resolver<P>

pub fn new_with_conn( config: ResolverConfig, options: ResolverOpts, conn_provider: P, ) -> Self

Construct a new AsyncResolver with the provided configuration.

Arguments

• config - configuration, name_servers, etc. for the Resolver
• options - basic lookup options for the resolver
• conn_provider - connection provider, for DNS connections, I/O, and timers

pub fn from_system_conf_with_provider( conn_provider: P, ) -> Result<Self, ResolveError>

Available on (Unix or Windows) and crate feature system-config only.

Constructs a new Resolver with the system configuration.

This will use /etc/resolv.conf on Unix OSes and the registry on Windows.

pub async fn lookup<N: IntoName>( &self, name: N, record_type: RecordType, ) -> Result<Lookup, ResolveError>

Generic lookup for any RecordType

WARNING this interface may change in the future, see if one of the specializations would be better.

Arguments

• name - name of the record to lookup, if name is not a valid domain name, an error will be returned
• record_type - type of record to lookup, all RecordData responses will be filtered to this type

Returns

pub async fn lookup_ip( &self, host: impl IntoName, ) -> Result<LookupIp, ResolveError>

Performs a dual-stack DNS lookup for the IP for the given hostname.

See the configuration and options parameters for controlling the way in which A(Ipv4) and AAAA(Ipv6) lookups will be performed. For the least expensive query a fully-qualified-domain-name, FQDN, which ends in a final ., e.g. www.example.com., will only issue one query. Anything else will always incur the cost of querying the ResolverConfig::domain and ResolverConfig::search.

Arguments

• host - string hostname, if this is an invalid hostname, an error will be returned.

pub fn set_hosts(&mut self, hosts: Option<Hosts>)

Customizes the static hosts used in this resolver.

pub async fn reverse_lookup( &self, query: IpAddr, ) -> Result<ReverseLookup, ResolveError>

Performs a lookup for the associated type.

Arguments

• query - a type which can be converted to Name via From.

pub async fn ipv4_lookup<N: IntoName>( &self, query: N, ) -> Result<Ipv4Lookup, ResolveError>

Performs a lookup for the associated type.

hint queries that end with a ‘.’ are fully qualified names and are cheaper lookups

Arguments

• query - a string which parses to a domain name, failure to parse will return an error

pub async fn ipv6_lookup<N: IntoName>( &self, query: N, ) -> Result<Ipv6Lookup, ResolveError>

Performs a lookup for the associated type.

hint queries that end with a ‘.’ are fully qualified names and are cheaper lookups

Arguments

• query - a string which parses to a domain name, failure to parse will return an error

pub async fn mx_lookup<N: IntoName>( &self, query: N, ) -> Result<MxLookup, ResolveError>

Performs a lookup for the associated type.

hint queries that end with a ‘.’ are fully qualified names and are cheaper lookups

Arguments

• query - a string which parses to a domain name, failure to parse will return an error

pub async fn ns_lookup<N: IntoName>( &self, query: N, ) -> Result<NsLookup, ResolveError>
