// -=-=- StartHere -=-=- // // # Chapter I: Using a custom UDP resolver // // In this chapter we will write together a `main.go` file that // uses a custom UDP DNS resolver to lookup domain names. // // This program is very similar to the one in the previous chapter // except that we'll be configuring a custom resolver. // // (This file is auto-generated from the corresponding source file, // so make sure you don't edit it manually.) // // ## The main.go file // // We define `main.go` file using `package main`. // // There's not much to say about the beginning of the program // since it is equal to the one in the previous chapter. // // ```Go package main import ( "context" "errors" "flag" "os" "time" "github.com/apex/log" "github.com/ooni/probe-cli/v3/internal/netxlite" ) func main() { log.SetLevel(log.DebugLevel) hostname := flag.String("hostname", "dns.google", "Hostname to resolve") timeout := flag.Duration("timeout", 60*time.Second, "Timeout") serverAddr := flag.String("server-addr", "1.1.1.1:53", "DNS server address") flag.Parse() ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), *timeout) defer cancel() // ``` // // Here's where we start to diverge. We create a dialer without a resolver, // which is going to be used by the UDP resolver. // // ```Go dialer := netxlite.NewDialerWithoutResolver(log.Log) // ``` // // Then, we create an UDP resolver. The arguments are the same as for // creating a system resolver, except that we also need to specify the // UDP endpoint address at which the server is listening. // // ```Go reso := netxlite.NewParallelResolverUDP(log.Log, dialer, *serverAddr) // ``` // // The API we invoke is the same as in the previous chapter, though, // and the rest of the program is equal to the one in the previous chapter. // // ```Go addrs, err := reso.LookupHost(ctx, *hostname) if err != nil { fatal(err) } log.Infof("resolver addrs: %+v", addrs) } func fatal(err error) { var ew *netxlite.ErrWrapper if !errors.As(err, &ew) { log.Fatal("cannot get ErrWrapper") } log.Warnf("error string : %s", err.Error()) log.Warnf("OONI failure : %s", ew.Failure) log.Warnf("failed operation: %s", ew.Operation) log.Warnf("underlying error: %+v", ew.WrappedErr) os.Exit(1) } // ``` // // ## Running the code // // ### Vanilla run // // You can now run this code as follows: // // ```bash // go run -race ./internal/tutorial/netxlite/chapter06 // ``` // // You will see debug logs describing what is happening along with timing info. // // ### NXDOMAIN // // ```bash // go run -race ./internal/tutorial/netxlite/chapter06 -hostname antani.ooni.io // ``` // // should cause a `dns_nxdomain_error`, because the domain does not exist. // // ### Timeout // // ```bash // go run -race ./internal/tutorial/netxlite/chapter06 -timeout 10us // ``` // // should cause a timeout error, because the timeout is ridicolously small. // // ```bash // go run -race ./internal/tutorial/netxlite/chapter06 -server-addr 1.1.1.1:1 // ``` // // should also cause a timeout, because 1.1.1.1:1 is not an endpoint // where a DNS-over-UDP resolver is listening. // // ## Conclusions // // We have seen how to use a custom DNS-over-UDP resolver.
