# dotbutts

a dns proxy for the .butts dns registry

## disclaimer

i have no idea what dns even is

## how to run & use .butts

requires node.js

```console

$ npm install -g dotbutts

$ dotbutts

```

You might have to do this with sudo permissions.

Now you can resolve dns queries against your dns server:

```console

$ dig @localhost jden.butts

```

For more usefulness, you might want to run this in an init script

and set your default dns server to localhost.

## how does it work?

It looks for queries that end in .butts and tries to resolve them.

It falls back to Google's public 8.8.8.8 dns server.

## how to register your own .butts

see https://github.com/jden/registry.butts

## pull requests welcome!

please help improve documentation and code because this was just

a quick first effort
