Usage in Deno
import * as mod from "node:dns/promises";
The dns.promises
API provides an alternative set of asynchronous DNS methods
that return Promise
objects rather than using callbacks. The API is accessible
via require('node:dns').promises
or require('node:dns/promises')
.
An independent resolver for DNS requests.
Get the default value for verbatim
in lookup and dnsPromises.lookup().
The value could be:
Returns an array of IP address strings, formatted according to RFC 5952, that are currently configured for DNS resolution. A string will include a port section if a custom port is used.
Resolves a host name (e.g. 'nodejs.org'
) into the first found A (IPv4) or
AAAA (IPv6) record. All option
properties are optional. If options
is an
integer, then it must be 4
or 6
– if options
is not provided, then IPv4
and IPv6 addresses are both returned if found.
Resolves the given address
and port
into a host name and service using
the operating system's underlying getnameinfo
implementation.
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve a host name (e.g. 'nodejs.org'
) into an array
of the resource records. When successful, the Promise
is resolved with an
array of resource records. The type and structure of individual results vary
based on rrtype
:
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve IPv4 addresses (A
records) for the hostname
. On success, the Promise
is resolved with an array of IPv4
addresses (e.g. ['74.125.79.104', '74.125.79.105', '74.125.79.106']
).
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve IPv6 addresses (AAAA
records) for the hostname
. On success, the Promise
is resolved with an array of IPv6
addresses.
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve all records (also known as ANY
or *
query).
On success, the Promise
is resolved with an array containing various types of
records. Each object has a property type
that indicates the type of the
current record. And depending on the type
, additional properties will be
present on the object:
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve CAA
records for the hostname
. On success,
the Promise
is resolved with an array of objects containing available
certification authority authorization records available for the hostname
(e.g. [{critical: 0, iodef: 'mailto:pki@example.com'},{critical: 128, issue: 'pki.example.com'}]
).
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve CNAME
records for the hostname
. On success,
the Promise
is resolved with an array of canonical name records available for
the hostname
(e.g. ['bar.example.com']
).
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve mail exchange records (MX
records) for the hostname
. On success, the Promise
is resolved with an array of objects
containing both a priority
and exchange
property (e.g.[{priority: 10, exchange: 'mx.example.com'}, ...]
).
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve regular expression-based records (NAPTR
records) for the hostname
. On success, the Promise
is resolved with an array
of objects with the following properties:
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve name server records (NS
records) for the hostname
. On success, the Promise
is resolved with an array of name server
records available for hostname
(e.g.['ns1.example.com', 'ns2.example.com']
).
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve pointer records (PTR
records) for the hostname
. On success, the Promise
is resolved with an array of strings
containing the reply records.
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve a start of authority record (SOA
record) for
the hostname
. On success, the Promise
is resolved with an object with the
following properties:
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve service records (SRV
records) for the hostname
. On success, the Promise
is resolved with an array of objects with
the following properties:
Uses the DNS protocol to resolve text queries (TXT
records) for the hostname
. On success, the Promise
is resolved with a two-dimensional array
of the text records available for hostname
(e.g.[ ['v=spf1 ip4:0.0.0.0 ', '~all' ] ]
). Each sub-array contains TXT chunks of
one record. Depending on the use case, these could be either joined together or
treated separately.
Performs a reverse DNS query that resolves an IPv4 or IPv6 address to an array of host names.
Set the default value of verbatim
in dns.lookup()
and dnsPromises.lookup()
. The value could be:
Sets the IP address and port of servers to be used when performing DNS
resolution. The servers
argument is an array of RFC 5952 formatted
addresses. If the port is the IANA default DNS port (53) it can be omitted.
