Racket DNS resolver and server
This is a Racket implementation of a DNS
server and iterative resolver. It's written to work with
Marketplace, but could readily
be adapted to work with other I/O substrates. (It originally used
Racket's sync and events directly.)
The code is not quite fully separated into a reusable library (or even a configurable service) yet. Changing this is straightforward, but low-priority right now. Patches welcome!
How to compile and run the code
You will need the latest prerelease version of Racket. Any version newer than or equal to Racket 5.3.4.10 should work. Nightly-build installers for Racket can be downloaded here.
Once you have Racket installed,
raco pkg install marketplace
to install Marketplace (note: will take a long time), and then
raco make driver.rkt proxy.rkt
to compile the DNS code. Once it has compiled successfully,
DNSPORT=5444 racket driver.rkt
will start a DNS leaf zone server on port 5444 holding records from
test-rrs.rkt's test-rrs variable, and
DNSPORT=5444 racket proxy.rkt
will start an iterative DNS resolver service on port 5444 offering regular DNS service to all comers.
You can try out the service with
dig @localhost -p 5444 localhost.example
To enable debug output, try
MATRIX_LOG=info DNSPORT=5444 racket driver.rkt
