Task
DNS query
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

DNS is an internet service that maps domain names, like rosettacode.org, to IP addresses, like 66.220.0.231.

Use DNS to resolve www.kame.net to both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Print these addresses.

Ada

Works with: GNAT GPL version Any - package Gnat.Sockets supports only IPv4 as of Jun 2011

<lang Ada>with Ada.Text_IO; use Ada.Text_IO; with GNAT.Sockets; use GNAT.Sockets;

procedure DNSQuerying is

  Host         : Host_Entry_Type (1, 1);
  Inet_Addr_V4 : Inet_Addr_Type (Family_Inet);

begin

  Host         := Get_Host_By_Name (Name => "www.kame.net");
  Inet_Addr_V4 := Addresses (Host);
  Put ("IPv4: " & Image (Value => Inet_Addr_V4));

end DNSQuerying;</lang>

Works with: GNAT GPL version 2019 - support for IPv6 was added to Gnat.Sockets sometime before this

<lang Ada>with Ada.Text_IO; use Ada.Text_IO; with GNAT.Sockets; use Gnat.Sockets; procedure DNSQuerying is

  procedure Print_Address_Info (Host, Serv : String; Family : Family_Type := Family_Unspec) is
     Addresses : Address_Info_Array := Get_Address_Info (Host, Serv, Family, Passive => False, Numeric_Host => False);
     Inet_Addr_V6: Inet_Addr_Type(Family_Inet6);
  begin
     Sort (Addresses, IPv6_TCP_Preferred'Access);
     Inet_Addr_V6 := Addresses(1).Addr.Addr;
     Put_Line("IPv6: " & Image(Value => Inet_Addr_V6));
  end Print_Address_Info;

begin

  Print_Address_Info ("ipv6.google.com", "https", Family_Inet6);

end DNSQuerying;</lang>

C

This solution uses getaddrinfo(), a standard function from RFC 3493. This code resembles an example from getaddrinfo(3), the BSD manual page. Whereas the man page code connects to www.kame.net, this code only prints the numeric addresses.

<lang c>#include <sys/types.h>

  1. include <sys/socket.h>
  2. include <netdb.h> /* getaddrinfo, getnameinfo */
  3. include <stdio.h> /* fprintf, printf */
  4. include <stdlib.h> /* exit */
  5. include <string.h> /* memset */

int main() { struct addrinfo hints, *res, *res0; int error; char host[NI_MAXHOST];

/* * Request only one socket type from getaddrinfo(). Else we * would get both SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_STREAM, and print two * copies of each numeric address. */ memset(&hints, 0, sizeof hints); hints.ai_family = PF_UNSPEC; /* IPv4, IPv6, or anything */ hints.ai_socktype = SOCK_DGRAM; /* Dummy socket type */

/* * Use getaddrinfo() to resolve "www.kame.net" and allocate * a linked list of addresses. */ error = getaddrinfo("www.kame.net", NULL, &hints, &res0); if (error) { fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", gai_strerror(error)); exit(1); }

/* Iterate the linked list. */ for (res = res0; res; res = res->ai_next) { /* * Use getnameinfo() to convert res->ai_addr to a * printable string. * * NI_NUMERICHOST means to present the numeric address * without doing reverse DNS to get a domain name. */ error = getnameinfo(res->ai_addr, res->ai_addrlen, host, sizeof host, NULL, 0, NI_NUMERICHOST);

if (error) { fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", gai_strerror(error)); } else { /* Print the numeric address. */ printf("%s\n", host); } }

/* Free the linked list. */ freeaddrinfo(res0);

return 0; }</lang>

C#

Implementation takes a host name string as a parameter, and returns the IP addresses in a comma-delimited string. Note that a failed lookup throws a SocketException. <lang csharp>

       private string LookupDns(string s)
       {
           try
           {
               System.Net.IPHostEntry ip = System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry(s);
               string result = ip.AddressList[0].ToString();
               for (int i = 1; i < ip.AddressList.Length; ++i)
                   result += ", " + ip.AddressList[i].ToString();
               return result;
           }
           catch (System.Net.Sockets.SocketException se)
           {
               return se.Message;
           }
       }

</lang>

C++

This example makes use of the Boost library. The asio bit is header-only, but requires linking boost-system (e.g. -lboost_system). The compiler may also need to be told to use C++11 semantics (e.g. -std=c++11). <lang C++>

  1. include <boost/asio.hpp>
  2. include <iostream>

int main() {

 int rc {EXIT_SUCCESS};
 try {
   boost::asio::io_service io_service;
   boost::asio::ip::tcp::resolver resolver {io_service};
   auto entries = resolver.resolve({"www.kame.net", ""});
   boost::asio::ip::tcp::resolver::iterator entries_end;
   for (; entries != entries_end; ++entries) {
     std::cout << entries->endpoint().address() << std::endl;
   }
 }
 catch (std::exception& e) {
   std::cerr << e.what() << std::endl;
   rc = EXIT_FAILURE;
 }
 return rc;

J

J currently doesn't have a native DNS implementation, and this task doesn't seem to be asking for us to implement DNS on top of UDP+TCP (a full implementation of DNS has to fall back to TCP for messages which cannot fit in a UDP packet).

Also, there's currently an issue with IPv6 DNS servers not being reachable, so that query did not resolve.

Anyways:

<lang J> 2!:0'dig -4 +short www.kame.net' orange.kame.net. 203.178.141.194

  2!:0'dig -6 +short www.kame.net'

|interface error | 2!:0'dig -6 +short www.kame.net'</lang>

Put differently: in the IPv4 DNS system, www.kame.net is currently a CNAME record for orange.kame.net which had the address 203.178.141.194.

And, as mentioned above, the IPv6 DNS system was not reachable.

R

R has no built-in function to accomplish the task, but with the help of the Rcpp package, it's possible to implement this functionality.

If the following is saved as dns.cpp:

<lang cpp>

  1. include <Rcpp.h>
  2. include <arpa/inet.h>
  3. include <sys/types.h>
  4. include <sys/socket.h>
  5. include <netdb.h>
  6. include <stdio.h>
  7. include <stdlib.h>
  8. include <string.h>

using namespace Rcpp ;

// export CharacterVector getNameInfo(std::string fqdn) {

 struct addrinfo hints, *res, *res0;

int error; char host[NI_MAXHOST];

 memset(&hints, 0, sizeof hints);

hints.ai_family = PF_UNSPEC; hints.ai_socktype = SOCK_DGRAM;

error = getaddrinfo(fqdn.c_str(), NULL, &hints, &res0); if (error) { return(NA_STRING); }

 int i = 0 ;

for (res = res0; res; res = res->ai_next) {

 	error = getnameinfo(res->ai_addr, res->ai_addrlen,

host, sizeof host, NULL, 0, NI_NUMERICHOST); if (!error) { i++ ; } }

 CharacterVector results(i) ;
 i = 0;
 for (res = res0; res; res = res->ai_next) {

error = getnameinfo(res->ai_addr, res->ai_addrlen, host, sizeof host, NULL, 0, NI_NUMERICHOST); if (!error) { results[i++] = host ; } }

 freeaddrinfo(res0);
 return(results) ;

} </lang>

It can be used to perform the task in R:

<lang R> library(Rcpp) sourceCpp("dns.cpp") getNameInfo("www.kame.net")

    1. [1] "203.178.141.194"
    2. [2] "2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7"

</lang>

Racket

The following finds an IPv4 address. Currently, the API does not support returning an IPv6 address.

<lang racket>

  1. lang racket

(require net/dns) (dns-get-address "8.8.8.8" "www.kame.net") </lang>

Raku

(formerly Perl 6)

Works with: Rakudo version 2017.01

<lang perl6>use Net::DNS;

my $resolver = Net::DNS.new('8.8.8.8');

my $ip4 = $resolver.lookup('A', 'orange.kame.net'); my $ip6 = $resolver.lookup('AAAA', 'orange.kame.net');

say $ip4[0].octets.join: '.'; say $ip6[0].octets.».fmt("%.2X").join.comb(4).join: ':';</lang>

Output:
203.178.141.194
2001:0200:0dff:fff1:0216:3eff:feb1:44d7

REXX

This REXX version uses the Windows (DOS)   PING   command to resolve the domain name.

Execution note:   if the information for     PING   -6   ···     is blank, you may need to install   (on some
Microsoft Windows systems)   the IPV6 interface using the command:     IPV6   install <lang rexx>/*REXX program displays IPV4 and IPV6 addresses for a supplied domain name.*/ parse arg tar . /*obtain optional domain name from C.L.*/ if tar== then tar= 'www.kame.net' /*Not specified? Then use the default.*/ tFID = '\TEMP\DNSQUERY.$$$' /*define temp file to store IPV4 output*/ pingOpts= '-l 0 -n 1 -w 0' tar /*define options for the PING command. */ trace off /*don't show PING none─zero return code*/

                                      /* [↓]  perform 2 versions of PING cmd.*/
 do j=4  to 6  by 2                   /*handle  IPV4  and  IPV6  addresses.  */
 'PING'  (-j)  pingOpts  ">"   tFID   /*restrict PING's output to a minimum. */
 q=charin(tFID, 1, 999)               /*read the output file from  PING  cmd.*/
 parse var  q   '['   ipaddr    "]"   /*parse  IP  address from the output.  */
 say 'IPV'j "for domain name  "  tar  '  is  '  ipaddr        /*IPVx address.*/
 call lineout tFID                    /* ◄──┬─◄  needed by some REXXes to    */
 end   /*j*/                          /*    └─◄  force (TEMP) file integrity.*/
                                      /*stick a fork in it,  we're all done. */

'ERASE' tFID /*clean up (delete) the temporary file.*/</lang> output   using the default input:

IPV4 for domain name   www.kame.net   is   203.178.141.194
IPV6 for domain name   www.kame.net   is   2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7

Rust

<lang rust>use std::net::ToSocketAddrs;

fn main() {

   let host = "www.kame.net";
   // Ideally, we would want to use std::net::lookup_host to resolve the host ips,
   // but at time of writing this, it is still unstable. Fortunately, we can
   // still resolve using the ToSocketAddrs trait, but we need to add a port,
   // so we use the dummy port 0.
   let host_port = (host, 0);
   let ip_iter = host_port.to_socket_addrs().unwrap();


   for ip_port in ip_iter {
       println!("{}", ip_port.ip());

Scheme

Works with: Guile

<lang scheme>; Query DNS (define n (car (hostent:addr-list (gethost "www.kame.net"))))

Display address as IPv4 and IPv6

(display (inet-ntoa n))(newline) (display (inet-ntop AF_INET n))(newline) (display (inet-ntop AF_INET6 n))(newline)</lang>

Seed7

The library socket.s7i defines the function inetSocketAddress, which returns an IPv4 address. It only returns an IPv6 address, when a host has no IPv4 address and the operating system supports IPv6. The function numericAddress is used to get the IP address of the specified host. <lang seed7>$ include "seed7_05.s7i";

 include "socket.s7i";

const proc: main is func

 begin
   writeln(numericAddress(inetSocketAddress("www.kame.net", 1024)));
 end func;</lang>

Output:

203.178.141.194

Sidef

<lang ruby>var (err, *res) = Socket.getaddrinfo(

       'www.kame.net', 0,
       Hash.new(protocol => Socket.IPPROTO_TCP)

); err && die err; res.each { |z|

   say [Socket.getnameinfo(z{:addr}, Socket.NI_NUMERICHOST)][1];

}</lang>

Output:
203.178.141.194
2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7

Tcl

While Tcl does internally do address resolution, it doesn't directly support looking up addresses without actually connecting to them. This is left to support packages to provide. An additional complexity is that while the DNS protocol itself is defined to work with both TCP and UDP as the transport layer, Tcl only supports TCP sockets by default (because they have a stream model) whereas DNS is typically only deployed with UDP enabled.

Library: Tcllib (Package: dns)
Library: udp

<lang tcl>package require udp; # Query by UDP more widely supported, but requires external package package require dns

set host "www.kame.net" set v4 [dns::resolve $host -type A]; # Specifically get IPv4 address set v6 [dns::resolve $host -type AAAA]; # Specifically get IPv6 address while {[dns::status $v4] eq "connect" || [dns::status $v6] eq "connect"} {

   update; # Let queries complete

} puts "primary addresses of $host are:\n\tIPv4» [dns::address $v4]\n\tIPv6» [dns::address $v6]"</lang> Output:

primary addresses of www.kame.net are:
	IPv4» 203.178.141.194
	IPv6» 2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7
