Does this support zones?

[gcstang]

Great project!

Thank you

I'd like to convert from using bind in my small private network to this if possible.

(It's possible I'm making this more complicated than need be but if there is an alternative, please say so)

I'm currently using bind on a docker container with different zones configured. Some zones point to their local file and others are forwarded to for example Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 Two different types of zones master and forward. i.e. zone "knock.mydomain.com" { type master; file "/var/lib/bind/knock.mydomain.com.hosts"; };

zone "r.mydomain.com" { type forward; forwarders { 1.1.1.1; }; };

master file file contents: `$ttl 38400 knock.mydomain.com. IN SOA ns.mydomain.com. admin.gmail.com. ( 1481752870 10800 3600 604800 38400 )

knock.mydomain.com. IN NS ns.mydomain.com. knock.mydomain.com. IN A 192.168.2.112`

hi gcstang, at the moment it doesn't support zone file, the records are simply stored in binary (gob), it's a good feature to add though.

but we can make rind kinda works the same way, for rind, all queries will be forwarded by default, so i wouldn't worry for "r.mydomain.com."

for "knock.mydomain.com.", to point it to "192.168.2.112", we just need this:

// TTL 0 or 1 means rind will point "knock.mydomain.com." to 192.168.2.112 forever, until you curl -X DELETE it
curl -X POST \
  http://localhost/dns \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "Host": "knock.mydomain.com.",
    "TTL": 1,
    "Type": "A",
    "Data": "192.168.2.112"
}'

i will leave out SOA and NS record for your particular use, SOA is mainly for zone transfer (propagating records to secondary dns servers). Also rind is not exactly an authoritative nameserver, so NS record doesn't really matter.

Thank you for your response, I'll give it a shot.

Is reverse lookup supported?

[owlwalks]

you can try dig -x after adding a PTR record, it should work

[owlwalks]

Closed to cover these use cases in README for future references

[gcstang]

Would you have a sample?
