|
CoreDNS-002 has been [released](https://github.com/coredns/coredns/releases)!
|
|
|
|
CoreDNS is a DNS server that chains plugins, where each plugin implements a DNS feature.
|
|
|
|
## What is New
|
|
|
|
* `-port` was renamed to `-dns.port` to avoid clashing with Caddy's `-port` (which was renamed to
|
|
`http.port`).
|
|
* Lumberjack logger was removed, this means no built in log rotation; use an external tool for that.
|
|
* Brushed up GoDoc for all packages.
|
|
* Brushed up all READMEs to be more standard and look like manual page.
|
|
* Golint-ed and go vet-ed the code - these can now (somewhat) useful tools before submitting PRs.
|
|
* Add more tests and show test coverage on submitting/PRs.
|
|
* Various Corefile parsing bugs fixed, better syntax error detection.
|
|
|
|
## Plugin improvements:
|
|
|
|
* plugin/root: a root plugin, same usage as in [Caddy](https://caddyserver.com/docs/root).
|
|
See plugin/root/README.md for its use in CoreDNS.
|
|
This makes stanzas like this shorter:
|
|
|
|
~~~ txt
|
|
.:53 {
|
|
file /etc/coredns/zones/db.example.net example.net
|
|
file /etc/coredns/zones/db.example.org example.org
|
|
file /etc/coredns/zones/db.example.com example.com
|
|
}
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
Can be written as:
|
|
|
|
~~~ txt
|
|
.:53 {
|
|
root /etc/coredns/zones
|
|
file db.example.net example.net
|
|
file db.example.org example.org
|
|
file db.example.com example.com
|
|
}
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
* plugin/auto: similar to the *file* plugin, but automatically picks up new zones.
|
|
The following Corefile will load all zones found under `/etc/coredns/org` and be authoritative
|
|
for `.org.`:
|
|
|
|
~~~ corefile
|
|
. {
|
|
auto org {
|
|
directory /etc/coredns/org
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
~~~
|
|
* plugin/file: handle wildcards better.
|
|
* plugin/kubernetes: TLS support for kubernetes and other improvements.
|
|
* plugin/cache: use an LRU cache to make it memory bounded. Added more option to have more
|
|
control on what is cached and for how long. The cache stanza was extended:
|
|
|
|
~~~ txt
|
|
. {
|
|
cache {
|
|
success CAPACITY [TTL]
|
|
denial CAPACITY [TTL]
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
See plugin/cache/README.md for more details.
|
|
|
|
* plugin/dnssec: replaced go-cache with golang-lru in dnssec. Also adds a `cache_capacity`.
|
|
option in dnssec plugin so that the capacity of the LRU cache could be specified in the config
|
|
file.
|
|
* plugin/logging: allow a response classs to be specified on log on responses matching the name *and*
|
|
the response class. For instance only log denials for example.com:
|
|
|
|
~~~ corefile
|
|
. {
|
|
log example.com {
|
|
class denial
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
~~~
|
|
|
|
* plugin/proxy: performance improvements.
