# What is DNSMasker?
|
|
Short version: It's a HTTP wrapper for DNSMasq and its hosts file.
|
|
|
|
# Motivations
|
|
|
|
* Delegate DNS management while maintaining the smallest footprint ever.
|
|
* Do whatever is necessary to keep customized code to a minimum.
|
|
I wanted to use off-the-shelf components where possible.
|
|
* Provide a convenient interface for managing DNS records.
|
|
* Do as little as possible as `root`.
|
|
|
|
# Usage
|
|
Visit the Swagger or Redoc documentation at `/docs/` or `/redoc`, respectively.
|
|
It's a simple path-based HTTP API.
|
|
|
|
## Token File
|
|
The token file is a brain-dead access control mechanism. It is a file that
|
|
contains a single "API Key" per line. You are free to mint and distribute
|
|
API Keys that users can include in the `x-api-token` header with their
|
|
requests.
|
|
|
|
## Hosts File
|
|
The hosts file is created and managed by `dnsmasker`. It follows the
|
|
standard hosts file convention: `IP address <tab> Name`
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Setup
|
|
|
|
## First-time Setup
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ touch hosts
|
|
$ tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 </dev/urandom | head -c 16 > tokens
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Sudoers configuration
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# allow 'user' to hup dnsmasq
|
|
user ALL=(root) pkill -HUP dnsmasq
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## dnsmasq.conf
|
|
Modify the dnsmasq configuration file to use a custom
|
|
hosts file and prevent any forwarding loops.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# Use a custom hosts file
|
|
no-hosts
|
|
addn-hosts=/home/user/pydnsmasker/hosts
|
|
|
|
# Prevent unnecessary forwarding
|
|
domain-needed
|
|
bogus-priv
|
|
no-resolv
|
|
local=/domain/
|
|
local=/domain2/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Python Application
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ python -m venv .venv
|
|
$ source .venv/bin/acticate
|
|
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
|
|
# run the application
|
|
$ fastapi run server.py --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Examples
|
|
|
|
## Add multiple A records for the 'ceph.lan' service
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ read -s -p "enter your api key: " TOKEN
|
|
$ export $TOKEN
|
|
$ for num in {1..60}; do result=$(curl -s -H "x-api-token:$TOKEN" "http://localhost:8000/service/ceph.lan/10.10.10.1$num" -X POST); done;
|
|
$ host ceph.lan
|
|
ceph.lan has address 10.10.10.116
|
|
ceph.lan has address 10.10.10.132
|
|
ceph.lan has address 10.10.10.11
|
|
ceph.lan has address 10.10.10.133
|
|
ceph.lan has address 10.10.10.117
|
|
ceph.lan has address 10.10.10.134
|
|
ceph.lan has address 10.10.10.19
|
|
...
|
|
ceph.lan has address 10.10.10.160
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Remove an A record for the 'ceph.lan' service
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ read -s -p "enter your api key: " TOKEN
|
|
$ export $TOKEN
|
|
$ curl -s -H "x-api-token:$TOKEN" "http://localhost:8000/service/ceph.lan/10.10.10.160" -X DELETE | jq
|
|
{
|
|
"ceph.lan": [
|
|
"10.10.10.11",
|
|
"10.10.10.12",
|
|
"10.10.10.13",
|
|
"10.10.10.14",
|
|
"10.10.10.15",
|
|
"10.10.10.16",
|
|
"10.10.10.17",
|
|
"10.10.10.18",
|
|
...
|
|
"10.10.10.159",
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
```
