Overview

DNS is a DNS stub resolver.

Instance Method Summary

Constructor Details

.new(config_info = nil) ⇒ DNS

Creates a new DNS resolver.

config_info can be:

nil

Uses /etc/resolv.conf.

String

Path to a file using /etc/resolv.conf’s format.

Hash

Must contain :nameserver, :search and :ndots keys.

:nameserver_port can be used to specify port number of nameserver address. :raise_timeout_errors can be used to raise timeout errors as exceptions instead of treating the same as an NXDOMAIN response.

The value of :nameserver should be an address string or an array of address strings.

  • :nameserver => ‘8.8.8.8’

  • :nameserver => [‘8.8.8.8’, ‘8.8.4.4’]

The value of :nameserver_port should be an array of pair of nameserver address and port number.

  • :nameserver_port => [[‘8.8.8.8’, 53], [‘8.8.4.4’, 53]]

Example:

Gem::Resolv::DNS.new(:nameserver => ['210.251.121.21'],
                :search => ['ruby-lang.org'],
                :ndots => 1)

Instance Attribute Details

#timeouts=(values) (writeonly)

Sets the resolver timeouts. This may be a single positive number or an array of positive numbers representing timeouts in seconds. If an array is specified, a DNS request will retry and wait for each successive interval in the array until a successful response is received. Specifying nil reverts to the default timeouts:

5, second = 5 * 2 / nameserver_count, 2 * second, 4 * second

Example:

dns.timeouts = 3

# File 'lib/rubygems/vendor/resolv/lib/resolv.rb', line 343

def timeouts=(values)
  @config.timeouts = values
end
