Usage

Input and output format is list delimited with new line. Consider such input domains.txt

google.com
rust-lang.org
mozilla.org

Resolve all A records:

batch_resolve --in domains.txt --out hosts.txt --query A

Resolve A and AAAA records:

batch_resolve -i domains.txt -o hosts.txt -q A
              -i domains.txt -o hosts.txt -q AAAA  

Configuration

By default batch_resolve uses Google DNS servers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 and retries 10 times on Connection Timeout error. These and Queries Per Second parameters may be altered in configuration file.

Configuration file may be placed in the following locations (priority descending):

batch_resolve.toml
$HOME/.config/batch_resolve.toml
/etc/batch_resolve.toml

Configuration includes DNS servers, queries per second amount and retries on failure count

# DNS servers are only accepted as socket addresses
# If port is not specified default DNS :53 port will be used
dns = [
    "8.8.8.8",
    "8.8.4.4"
]

# How many queries to perform per second
# WARNING: Google Public DNS guaranteed to handle 500 requests per second max
# Please make sure that resolve results do not vary with higher request rates
# before using high QPS configuration in production.
# Alternatively you can use your own local caching DNS server.
queries_per_second = 500

# Times to retry on connection timeout
retry = 5

Configuration template can also be found here
