Side-by-side comparison of Rust crates
Trust-DNS is a safe and secure DNS library. This is an extension for the Trust-DNS client to use rustls for TLS.
Trust-DNS is a safe and secure DNS library. This Resolver library uses the Client library to perform all DNS queries. The Resolver is intended to be a high-level library for any DNS record resolution see Resolver and AsyncResolver for supported resolution types. The Client can be used for other queries.
Trust-DNS is a safe and secure DNS server with DNSSEC support. Eventually this could be a replacement for BIND9. The DNSSEC support allows for live signing of all records, in it does not currently support records signed offline. The server supports dynamic DNS with SIG0 authenticated requests. Trust-DNS is based on the Tokio and Futures libraries, which means it should be easily integrated into other software that also use those libraries.
