portal

⚠️ This implementation is currently not production ready. However, it achieves to be in the future!

Portal is a DNS implementation written in pure Rust. It provides multiple crates and binaries to work with the DNS protocol. The protocol implementation is located in these crates:

• crates/client: A sequential and multiplexed DNS client implementation
• crates/common: A collection of common data types and utility functions used in other crates
• crates/proto: The base protocol implementation
• crates/resolver: Forwarding and recursive resolver implementations
• crates/server: A DNS server implementation

---

Additionally, there are various ready-to-use binaries based on the above crates:

• bins/pgun: A fast terminal-based DNS query tool
• bins/portald: A DNS server with recursive resolving, caching, and DNS blocking*

* Currently, the caching and DNS blocking is not fully implemented yet.

TODOs

• Move Config code to portal-bin
• Make handlers more flexible (Generic)
• Implement a DNS multiplexer to better handle requests, responses, and transaction ids
• Split zone file loading into Lexer and Parser
• Add READMEs to crates and bins
