def __getstate__(self): (source)

Undocumented

def __init__(self, resolv=None, servers=None, timeout=(1, 3, 11, 45), reactor=None): (source)

overrides twisted.names.common.ResolverBase.__init__

Construct a resolver which will query domain name servers listed in the resolv.conf(5)-format file given by resolv as well as those in the given servers list. Servers are queried in a round-robin fashion. If given, resolv is periodically checked for modification and re-parsed if it is noticed to have changed.

Parameters
resolv:`str`	Filename to read and parse as a resolver(5) configuration file.
servers:`list` of `(str, int)` or `None`	If not None, interpreted as a list of (host, port) pairs specifying addresses of domain name servers to attempt to use for this lookup. Host addresses should be in IPv4 dotted-quad form. If specified, overrides `resolv`.
timeout:Sequence of `int`	Default number of seconds after which to reissue the query. When the last timeout expires, the query is considered failed.
reactor	A provider of `IReactorTime`, `IReactorUDP`, and `IReactorTCP` which will be used to establish connections, listen for DNS datagrams, and enforce timeouts. If not provided, the global reactor will be used.
Raises
`ValueError`	Raised if no nameserver addresses can be found.

def __setstate__(self, state): (source)

Undocumented

def connectionLost(self, protocol): (source)

Called by associated dns.DNSProtocol instances when they disconnect.

def connectionMade(self, protocol): (source)

Called by associated dns.DNSProtocol instances when they connect.

def filterAnswers(self, message): (source)

Extract results from the given message.

If the message was truncated, re-attempt the query over TCP and return a Deferred which will fire with the results of that query.

If the message's result code is not twisted.names.dns.OK, return a Failure indicating the type of error which occurred.

Otherwise, return a three-tuple of lists containing the results from the answers section, the authority section, and the additional section.

def lookupZone(self, name, timeout=10): (source)

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IResolver

overrides twisted.names.common.ResolverBase.lookupZone

Perform an AXFR record lookup.

NB This is quite different from other DNS requests. See http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/axfr-notes.html for more information.

NB Unlike other lookup* methods, the timeout here is not a list of ints, it is a single int.

Parameters
name	DNS name to resolve.
timeout	When this 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 and third elements are always empty. The `Deferred` may instead fail with one of the exceptions defined in `twisted.names.error` or with `NotImplementedError`.

def maybeParseConfig(self): (source)

Undocumented

def messageReceived(self, message, protocol, address=None): (source)

Undocumented

def parseConfig(self, resolvConf): (source)

Undocumented

def pickServer(self): (source)

Return the address of a nameserver.

TODO: Weight servers for response time so faster ones can be preferred.

def queryTCP(self, queries, timeout=10): (source)

Make a number of DNS queries via TCP.

Parameters
queries:Any non-zero number of `dns.Query` instances	The queries to make.
timeout:`int`	The number of seconds after which to fail.
Returns
`Deferred`	Undocumented

def queryUDP(self, queries, timeout=None): (source)

Make a number of DNS queries via UDP.

Parameters
queries:A `list` of `dns.Query` instances	The queries to make.
timeout:Sequence of `int`	Number of seconds after which to reissue the query. When the last timeout expires, the query is considered failed.
Returns
`Deferred` @raise `twisted.internet.defer.TimeoutError`: When the query times out.	Undocumented

def _connectedProtocol(self, interface=''): (source)

Return a new DNSDatagramProtocol bound to a randomly selected port number.

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

overrides twisted.names.common.ResolverBase._lookup

Build a dns.Query for the given parameters and dispatch it via UDP.

If this query is already outstanding, it will not be re-issued. Instead, when the outstanding query receives a response, that response will be re-used for this query as well.

Parameters
name:`str`	Undocumented
cls:`int`	Undocumented
type:`int`	Undocumented
timeout	Undocumented
Returns
A `Deferred` which fires with a three-tuple giving the answer, authority, and additional sections of the response or with a `Failure` if the response code is anything other than `dns.OK`.

def _openFile(self, path): (source)

Wrapper used for opening files in the class, exists primarily for unit testing purposes.

def _query(self, *args): (source)

Get a new DNSDatagramProtocol instance from _connectedProtocol, issue a query to it using *args, and arrange for it to be disconnected from its transport after the query completes.

Parameters
*args	Positional arguments to be passed to `DNSDatagramProtocol.query`.
Returns
A `Deferred` which will be called back with the result of the query.

_reactor = (source)

A provider of IReactorTCP, IReactorUDP, and IReactorTime which will be used to set up network resources and track timeouts.

A dict mapping tuple keys of query name/type/class to Deferreds which will be called back with the result of those queries. This is used to avoid issuing the same query more than once in parallel.
