rs-dnsdist-console

A simple tool to use dnsdist's console from the command-line, written in Rust.

Run command

$ rs-dnsdist-console 127.0.0.1 <base64-encoded console key> 5900 'showVersion()'
dnsdist 1.6.1
$

Use as a library

The library provides a simple lib_rs_dnsdist_console::execute_command() helper which opens an encrypted TCP connection, executes a single command, reads the result and then closes the connection.

It also provides a more complete DNSDistConsole object which allows executing several commands over the same encrypted TCP connection:

let mut console: DNSDistConsole = DNSDistConsole::new(host, port, key)?;
console.send(command)?;
console.receive()
