This diff refactors netx and netxlite to ensure we're not using netxlite legacy names inside of netx. To this end, we're cheating a bit. We're exposing a new factory to get an unwrapped stdlib resolver rather than defining a legacy name to export the private name of the same factory. This is actually a fine place to stop, for now, the next and netxlite refactoring at https://github.com/ooni/probe/issues/2121.

// # Chapter I: Using the "system" DNS resolver
|
|
//
|
|
// In this chapter we will write together a `main.go` file that
|
|
// uses the "system" DNS resolver to lookup domain names.
|
|
//
|
|
// The "system" resolver is the one used by `getaddrinfo` on Unix.
|
|
//
|
|
// (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`.
|
|
//
|
|
// ```Go
|
|
package main
|
|
|
|
import (
|
|
"context"
|
|
"errors"
|
|
"flag"
|
|
"os"
|
|
"time"
|
|
|
|
"github.com/apex/log"
|
|
"github.com/ooni/probe-cli/v3/internal/netxlite"
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
func main() {
|
|
// ```
|
|
//
|
|
// The beginning of the program is equal to the previous chapters,
|
|
// so there is not much to say about it.
|
|
//
|
|
// ```Go
|
|
log.SetLevel(log.DebugLevel)
|
|
hostname := flag.String("hostname", "dns.google", "Hostname to resolve")
|
|
timeout := flag.Duration("timeout", 60*time.Second, "Timeout")
|
|
flag.Parse()
|
|
ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), *timeout)
|
|
defer cancel()
|
|
// ```
|
|
//
|
|
// We create a new resolver using the standard library to perform
|
|
// domain name resolutions. Unless you're cross compiling, this
|
|
// resolver will call the system resolver using a C API. On Unix
|
|
// the called C API is `getaddrinfo`.
|
|
//
|
|
// The returned resolver implements an interface that is very
|
|
// close to the API of the `net.Resolver` struct.
|
|
//
|
|
// ```Go
|
|
reso := netxlite.NewStdlibResolver(log.Log)
|
|
// ```
|
|
//
|
|
// We call `LookupHost` to map the hostname to IP addrs. The returned
|
|
// value is either a list of addrs or an error.
|
|
//
|
|
// ```Go
|
|
addrs, err := reso.LookupHost(ctx, *hostname)
|
|
if err != nil {
|
|
fatal(err)
|
|
}
|
|
log.Infof("resolver addrs: %+v", addrs)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// ```
|
|
//
|
|
// This function is exactly like it was in previous chapters.
|
|
//
|
|
// ```Go
|
|
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/chapter05
|
|
// ```
|
|
//
|
|
// You will see debug logs describing what is happening along with timing info.
|
|
//
|
|
// ### NXDOMAIN error
|
|
//
|
|
// ```bash
|
|
// go run -race ./internal/tutorial/netxlite/chapter05 -hostname antani.ooni.io
|
|
// ```
|
|
//
|
|
// should cause a `dns_nxdomain_error`, because the domain does not exist.
|
|
//
|
|
// ### Timeout
|
|
//
|
|
// ```bash
|
|
// go run -race ./internal/tutorial/netxlite/chapter05 -timeout 10us
|
|
// ```
|
|
//
|
|
// should cause a timeout error, because the timeout is ridicolously small.
|
|
//
|
|
// ## Conclusions
|
|
//
|
|
// We have seen how to use the "system" DNS resolver.
