NAME
AnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts - Use /etc/hosts before DNS
SYNOPSIS
use AnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts;
use AnyEvent::DNS;
my $cv = AE::cv;
AnyEvent::DNS::any 'example.com', sub {
say foreach map { $_->[4] } grep { $_->[1] =~ /^(a|aaaa)$/ } @_;
$cv->send;
};
use AnyEvent::Socket;
my $cv = AE::cv;
AnyEvent::Socket::resolve_sockaddr $domain, $service, $proto, $family, undef, sub {
say foreach map { format_address((AnyEvent::Socket::unpack_sockaddr($_->[3]))[1]) } @_;
$cv->send;
};DESCRIPTION
AnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts changes AnyEvent::DNS behavior. The /etc/hosts file is searched before DNS, so it is possible to override DNS entries.
The DNS lookups are emulated. This resolver returns the standard DNS reply based on /etc/hosts file rather than real DNS.
You can choose a different file by changing PERL_ANYEVENT_HOSTS environment variable.
This module also disables the original AnyEvent::Socket's helper function which reads /etc/hosts file after the DNS entry was not found. It prevents reading this file twice.
The AnyEvent::Socket resolver searches IPv4 and IPv6 addresses separately. If you don't want to check the addresses in DNS, both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses should be placed in /etc/hosts or the protocol family should be set explicitly for resolve_sockaddr function.
IMPORTS
use AnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts %args
use AnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts server => '8.8.8.8';
$ perl -MAnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts script.pl
Enables this module globally. Additional arguments will be passed to AnyEvent::DNS constructor.
no AnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts
Disables this module globally.
METHODS
register
require AnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts;
$guard = AnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts->register(%args);
undef $guard;Enables this module in lexical scope. The module will be disabled out of scope. Additional arguments will be passed to AnyEvent::DNS constructor.
If you want to use AnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts in lexical scope only, you should use require rather than use keyword, because import method enables AnyEvent::DNS::EtcHosts globally.
request
$resolver->request($req, $cb->($res))This is a wrapper for AnyEvent::DNS->request method.
SEE ALSO
