nessie_2

A fork of ckreiling/nessie, a basic dns client for gleam on the erlang target.

gleam add nessie_2

import nessie_2
import gleam/io

pub fn main() {
  let ipv4_addrs = nessie_2.lookup_ipv4("gleam.run", nessie_2.In, [])
  io.debug(ipv4_addrs)
}

Supported DNS Records

The following is a list of supported DNS record types. If nessie doesn't currently support a DNS record type you want, feel free to contribute to this project!

• A
• AAAA
• TXT
• CNAME
• MX
• SOA
• NS
• PTR
• SRV
• CERT
• DCHID
• DNAME
• DNSKEY
• DS

What about JavaScript support?

Due to Erlang and JavaScript's fundamentally different approaches to asynchronous programming (processes & event loops, respectively), it's not currently possible in Gleam to write a DNS client supporting both targets.

For more information, see this Discord thread.
