Getting Started

Install from Releases

You can install devdns by simply downloading the latest version from the Release and placing the binary in your $PATH.

For convenience you can run the following shell pipelines which will download and install the latest release binary into /usr/local/bin (modify to suit):

For MacOS x86_64:

curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/prologic/devdns/releases/latest | grep browser_download_url | grep Darwin_x86_64 | cut -d '"' -f 4 | wget -q -O - -i - | tar -xv devdns && mv devdns /usr/local/bin/devdns

Install from Homebrew

On macOS you can install devdns using Homebrew:

brew tap prologic/devdns
brew install devdns

Install from Source

To install devdns from source you can run go get directly if you have a Go environment setup:

go get git.mills.io/prologic/devdns

NOTE: Be sure to have $GOBIN (if not empty) or your $GOPATH/bin in your $PATH. See Compile and install packages and dependencies

Or grab the source code and build:

git clone https://git.mills.io/prologic/devdns.git
cd devdns
make build

And optionally run make install to place the binary devdns in your $GOBIN or $GOPATH/bin (again see note above).

Usage

Using devdns is quite simple. The basic usage is as follows:

sudo devdns <domain>

For example to run a DNS server that responds to all *.test requests:

sudo devdns test
