A library for interacting with the Domain Name System. The crate contains

an ever-growing set of building blocks for including DNS functionality in

applications.

Currently, these blocks include:

* basic data structures and functionality for creating and parsing DNS

  data and messages,

* experimental support for DNS client and server transports,

* support for signing and verifying messages using the TSIG mechanism,

* experimental support for reading data from DNS zone files,

* experimental and as yet incomplete support for DNSSEC signing and

  validation,

* a simple Tokio-based stub resolver.

If you have ideas, requests, or proposals for future features, please

don’t hesitate to open Github issues.

## Minimal Supported Rust Versions

We are trying to maintain a decent balance between being able to use older

compiler versions and using new features that improve safety and usability

of the crate.

### Minimum version: 1.68.2

The `rust-version` given in `Cargo.toml` is the oldest version that can

be used to compile the crate with the minimal versions of all dependencies

selected.

You can run `cargo +nightly update -Z minimal-versions` to ask Cargo to

select these minimal versions for all dependencies.

### Current version: 1.76.0

This is the minimum Rust version required to build with latest version of

all dependencies at time of release. `Cargo.lock` contains these versions

for reference.

## Licensing

The domain crate is distributed under the terms of the BSD-3-clause

license. See the [LICENSE] file for details.
