NAME

TinyDNS::Reader - Read TinyDNS files.

DESCRIPTION

This module allows the parsing of a TinyDNS data-file, or individual records taken from one.

SYNOPSIS

   use TinyDNS::Reader;

   my $tmp = TinyDNS::Reader->new( file => "./zones/example.com" );
   my $dns = $tmp->parse();

   foreach my $record ( @$dns )
   {
      print $record . "\n";
   }

DESCRIPTION

This module contains code for reading a zone-file which has been created for use with DJB's tinydns.

A zonefile may be parsed and turned into a series of TinyDNS::Record objects, one for each valid record which is found.

If you wish to merge multiple records, referring to the same hostname, you should also consult the documentation for the TinyeDNS::Reader::Merged module.

METHODS

new

The constructor should be given either a "file" or "text" parameter, containing the filename to parse, or the text to parse, respectively.

parse

Process and return an array of TinyDNS::Records from the data contained in the file specified by our constructor, or the scalar reference.
