.SH "NAME"
.PP
\fIdnstap\fP - enables logging to dnstap.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
dnstap is a flexible, structured binary log format for DNS software; see https://dnstap.info
\[la]https://dnstap.info\[ra]. With this
plugin you make CoreDNS output dnstap logging.
.PP
Every message is sent to the socket as soon as it comes in, the \fIdnstap\fP plugin has a buffer of
10000 messages, above that number dnstap messages will be dropped (this is logged).
.SH "SYNTAX"
.PP
.RS
.nf
dnstap SOCKET [full]
.fi
.RE
.IP \(bu 4
\fBSOCKET\fP is the socket (path) supplied to the dnstap command line tool.
.IP \(bu 4
\fB\fCfull\fR to include the wire-format DNS message.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
Log information about client requests and responses to \fI/tmp/dnstap.sock\fP.
.PP
.RS
.nf
dnstap /tmp/dnstap.sock

.RE
.SH "COMMAND LINE TOOL"
.PP
Dnstap has a command line tool that can be used to inspect the logging. The tool can be found
at Github: https://github.com/dnstap/golang-dnstap
\[la]https://github.com/dnstap/golang-dnstap\[ra]. It's written in Go.
.PP
The following command listens on the given socket and decodes messages to stdout.
.PP
.RS
.nf
$ dnstap \-u /tmp/dnstap.sock
.fi
.RE
.PP
The following command listens on the given socket and saves message payloads to a binary dnstap-format log file.
.PP
.RS
.nf
$ dnstap \-u /tmp/dnstap.sock \-w /tmp/test.dnstap
.fi
.RE
.PP
Listen for dnstap messages on port 6000.
.PP
.RS
.nf
$ dnstap \-l 127.0.0.1:6000
.fi
.RE
.SH "USING DNSTAP IN YOUR PLUGIN"
.PP
In your setup function, check to see if the \fIdnstap\fP plugin is loaded:
.PP
.RS
.nf
c.OnStartup(func() error {
if taph := dnsserver.GetConfig(c).Handler("dnstap"); taph != nil {
if tapPlugin, ok := taph.(dnstap.Dnstap); ok {
f.tapPlugin = \&tapPlugin
}
}
return nil
})
.fi
.RE
.PP
And then in your plugin:
.PP
.RS
.nf
func (x RandomPlugin) ServeDNS(ctx context.Context, w dns.ResponseWriter, r *dns.Msg) (int, error) {
if tapPlugin != nil {
q := new(msg.Msg)
msg.SetQueryTime(q, time.Now())
msg.SetQueryAddress(q, w.RemoteAddr())
if tapPlugin.IncludeRawMessage {
buf, \_ := r.Pack() // r has been seen packed/unpacked before, this should not fail
q.QueryMessage = buf
}
msg.SetType(q, tap.Message\_CLIENT\_QUERY)
tapPlugin.TapMessage(q)
}
// ...
}
.fi
.RE
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.PP
The website dnstap.info
\[la]https://dnstap.info\[ra] has info on the dnstap protocol. The \fIforward\fP
plugin's \fB\fCdnstap.go\fR uses dnstap to tap messages sent to an upstream.
