A Demo DNS Server project in NodeJS, to demonstrate [network-serializer](https://github.com/tomdionysus/network-serializer).

**Note** This is a technology demo project, DO NOT use it as a DNS server.

## Installation

```bash

npm install

```

In addition, you will need an accessible MySQL/MariaDB database, initialised from the schema in [db_setup.sql](sql/db_setup.sql):

```bash

export DATABASE_NAME="dnsserver"

mysql -u root --execute="CREATE DATABASE $DATABASE_NAME;"

mysql -u root $DATABASE_NAME < sql/db_setup.sql

```

## Running

The server needs a `DB_URI` in the following format, and will bind to UDP Port 53 by default. MacOS and various other OSes bind `0.0.0.0` UDP Port 53, so it's best to run it on a different one.

```bash

DB_URI=mysql://root@localhost/$DATABASE_NAME LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG PORT=54 node index.js

```

## Demo

```bash

dig @localhost -p 54 example.com +noedns

```
