dnsdist: show a subset of the rule if the rule is huge

[giganteous]

• Program: dnsdist
• Issue type: Feature request

Short description

The dnsdist dashboard and the showRules() output are almost unreadable when the rules get large.

Usecase

We autogenerate an action with puppet which looks a bit like:

addAction(OrRule({
    QNameRule("accesspiratebay.co.uk"),
    QNameRule("fastpiratebay.co.uk"),
    QNameRule("gameofbay.org"),
    QNameRule("hyperproxy.net"),
    QNameRule("ikwilthepiratebay.org"),
    QNameRule("kanyebay.co.uk"),
    QNameRule("openpiratebay.eu"),
    QNameRule("pirateaccess.info"),
....

and it results in this:

> showRules()
#     Matches Rule                                               Action

Description

Perhaps support a show rule command with an argument to give more details, or support giving it a label. While implementing this, think about indempotent setting of certain rules remote using the CLI or API: Zero downtime changes to rules would be interesting.
