DNS Request and Parser Class
============================

[](#dns-request-and-parser-class)

This package contains a class that can perform dns requests, parse answer and return a json document. It can request data directly from Root Servers, and even from authoritative or recursive servers.

```
$dns = new Dns_Request();

$dns->setRequestType("MX");

$ret =  $dns->DnsRequest("gogle.com");
```

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require ipokbr\dns
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The class can fetch these record types: `A`, `CNAME`, `NS`, `SOA`, `MX`, `TXT`.

```
$dns = new Dns_request();
$dns->setRequestType("MX");
$dns->DnsRequest("gogle.com");

$dns->setRequestType("CNAME"); //Set the record type

$dns->setServerRequest("8.8.8.8"); //Set server to send the request - Default: none

$dns->unsetRecursive(); //Unset the recursive feature - Default: enable

$dns->setTcp(); //Use tcp protocol (instead of udp) - Default: disable

$dns->setTrace(); //Set Trace feature - Default: disable

```
