Lookup an address using multiple IResolvers
Method __init__
Method lookupAllRecords Perform an ALL_RECORD lookup.
Instance Variable resolvers Undocumented
Method _lookup Build a dns.Query for the given parameters and dispatch it to each IResolver in self.resolvers until an answer or error.AuthoritativeDomainError is returned.

Method getHostByName Resolve the domain name name into an IP address.
Method lookupAddress Perform an A record lookup.
Method lookupAddress6 Perform an A6 record lookup.
Method lookupAFSDatabase Perform an AFSDB record lookup.
Method lookupAuthority Perform an SOA record lookup.
Method lookupCanonicalName Perform a CNAME record lookup.

Method lookupService Perform an SRV record lookup.
Method lookupText Perform a TXT record lookup.
Method lookupWellKnownServices Perform a WKS record lookup.
Method lookupZone Perform an AXFR record lookup.
Method query Dispatch query to the method which can handle its type.
Instance Variable typeToMethod Undocumented
Method _cbRecords Undocumented
Class Variable _errormap A dict mapping DNS protocol failure response codes to exception classes which will be used to represent those failures.
Class Variable _log Undocumented
def __init__(self, resolvers): (source)
Parameters
resolvers:listA list of IResolver providers.
def lookupAllRecords(self, name, timeout=None): (source)
Perform an ALL_RECORD lookup.
Parameters
nameDNS name to resolve.
timeoutNumber of seconds after which to reissue the query. When the last timeout expires, the query is considered failed.
Returns
A Deferred which fires with a three-tuple of lists of twisted.names.dns.RRHeader instances. The first element of the tuple gives answers. The second element of the tuple gives authorities. The third element of the tuple gives additional information. The Deferred may instead fail with one of the exceptions defined in twisted.names.error or with NotImplementedError.

def _lookup(self, name, cls, type, timeout): (source)

Parameters

cls:intDNS record class.
type:intDNS record type.
timeout:Sequence of intNumber of seconds after which to reissue the query. When the last timeout expires, the query is considered failed.
Returns
DeferredA Deferred which fires with a three-tuple of lists of twisted.names.dns.RRHeader instances. The first element of the tuple gives answers. The second element of the tuple gives authorities.
