pub struct Answer { /* private fields */ }Expand description
The answer to a question.
This type is a wrapper around the DNS Message containing the answer
that provides some additional information.
Implementations§
Methods from Deref<Target = Message<Bytes>>§
sourcepub fn for_slice(&self) -> &Message<[u8]>
pub fn for_slice(&self) -> &Message<[u8]>
Returns a message for a slice of the octets sequence.
sourcepub fn header_counts(&self) -> HeaderCounts
pub fn header_counts(&self) -> HeaderCounts
Returns the header counts of the message.
sourcepub fn header_section(&self) -> HeaderSection
pub fn header_section(&self) -> HeaderSection
Returns the entire header section.
sourcepub fn is_error(&self) -> bool
pub fn is_error(&self) -> bool
Returns whether the rcode of the header is one of the error values.
sourcepub fn question(&self) -> QuestionSection<'_, Octs> ⓘ
pub fn question(&self) -> QuestionSection<'_, Octs> ⓘ
Returns the question section.
sourcepub fn zone(&self) -> QuestionSection<'_, Octs> ⓘ
pub fn zone(&self) -> QuestionSection<'_, Octs> ⓘ
Returns the zone section of an UPDATE message.
This is identical to self.question().
sourcepub fn answer(&self) -> Result<RecordSection<'_, Octs>, ParseError>
pub fn answer(&self) -> Result<RecordSection<'_, Octs>, ParseError>
Returns the answer section.
Iterates over the question section in order to access the answer
section. If you are accessing the question section anyway, using
its next_section method may be more efficient.
sourcepub fn prerequisite(&self) -> Result<RecordSection<'_, Octs>, ParseError>
pub fn prerequisite(&self) -> Result<RecordSection<'_, Octs>, ParseError>
Returns the prerequisite section of an UPDATE message.
This is identical to self.answer().
Returns the authority section.
Iterates over both the question and the answer sections to determine
the start of the authority section. If you are already accessing the
answer section, using next_section on it is more efficient.
sourcepub fn update(&self) -> Result<RecordSection<'_, Octs>, ParseError>
pub fn update(&self) -> Result<RecordSection<'_, Octs>, ParseError>
Returns the update section of an UPDATE message.
This is identical to self.authority().
sourcepub fn additional(&self) -> Result<RecordSection<'_, Octs>, ParseError>
pub fn additional(&self) -> Result<RecordSection<'_, Octs>, ParseError>
Returns the additional section.
Iterates over all three previous sections to determine the start of
the additional section. If you are already accessing the
authority section, using next_section on it is more efficient.
sourcepub fn sections(
&self,
) -> Result<(QuestionSection<'_, Octs>, RecordSection<'_, Octs>, RecordSection<'_, Octs>, RecordSection<'_, Octs>), ParseError>
pub fn sections( &self, ) -> Result<(QuestionSection<'_, Octs>, RecordSection<'_, Octs>, RecordSection<'_, Octs>, RecordSection<'_, Octs>), ParseError>
Returns all four sections in one fell swoop.
sourcepub fn iter(&self) -> MessageIter<'_, Octs> ⓘ
pub fn iter(&self) -> MessageIter<'_, Octs> ⓘ
Returns an iterator over the records in the message.
The iterator’s item is a pair of a ParsedRecord and the
Section it was found in.
As is customary, this iterator is also accessible via the
IntoIterator trait on a reference to the message.
sourcepub fn is_answer<Other: Octets>(&self, query: &Message<Other>) -> bool
pub fn is_answer<Other: Octets>(&self, query: &Message<Other>) -> bool
Returns whether this is the answer to some other message.
The method checks whether the ID fields of the headers are the same, whether the QR flag is set in this message, and whether the questions are the same.
sourcepub fn first_question(&self) -> Option<Question<ParsedDname<Octs::Range<'_>>>>
pub fn first_question(&self) -> Option<Question<ParsedDname<Octs::Range<'_>>>>
Returns the first question, if there is any.
The method will return None both if there are no questions or if
parsing fails.
sourcepub fn sole_question(
&self,
) -> Result<Question<ParsedDname<Octs::Range<'_>>>, ParseError>
pub fn sole_question( &self, ) -> Result<Question<ParsedDname<Octs::Range<'_>>>, ParseError>
Returns the sole question of the message.
This is like first_question but returns an error if there isn’t
exactly one question or there is a parse error.
sourcepub fn contains_answer<'s, Data>(&'s self) -> boolwhere
Data: ParseRecordData<'s, Octs>,
pub fn contains_answer<'s, Data>(&'s self) -> boolwhere
Data: ParseRecordData<'s, Octs>,
Returns whether the message contains answers of a given type.
sourcepub fn canonical_name(&self) -> Option<ParsedDname<Octs::Range<'_>>>
pub fn canonical_name(&self) -> Option<ParsedDname<Octs::Range<'_>>>
Resolves the canonical name of the answer.
The CNAME record allows a domain name to be an alias for a different name. Aliases may be chained. The ‘canonical name’ referred to be the method’s name is the last name in this chain. A recursive resolver will support a stub resolver in figuring out this canonical name by including all necessary CNAME records in its answer. This method can be used on such an answer to determine the canonical name. As such, it will only consider CNAMEs present in the message’s answer section.
It starts with the question name and follows CNAME records until there is no next CNAME in the chain and then returns the last CNAME.
If the message doesn’t have a question, if there is a parse error, or
if there is a CNAME loop the method returns None.
sourcepub fn opt(&self) -> Option<OptRecord<Octs::Range<'_>>>
pub fn opt(&self) -> Option<OptRecord<Octs::Range<'_>>>
Returns the OPT record from the message, if there is one.
sourcepub fn get_last_additional<'s, Data: ParseRecordData<'s, Octs>>(
&'s self,
) -> Option<Record<ParsedDname<Octs::Range<'s>>, Data>>
pub fn get_last_additional<'s, Data: ParseRecordData<'s, Octs>>( &'s self, ) -> Option<Record<ParsedDname<Octs::Range<'s>>, Data>>
Returns the last additional record from the message.
The method tries to parse the last record of the additional section as the provided record type. If that succeeds, it returns that parsed record.
If the last record is of the wrong type or parsing fails, returns
None.
sourcepub fn copy_records<'s, R, F, T, O>(
&'s self,
target: T,
op: F,
) -> Result<AdditionalBuilder<O>, CopyRecordsError>where
Octs: Octets,
R: ComposeRecord + 's,
F: FnMut(ParsedRecord<'s, Octs>) -> Option<R>,
T: Into<AnswerBuilder<O>>,
O: Composer,
pub fn copy_records<'s, R, F, T, O>(
&'s self,
target: T,
op: F,
) -> Result<AdditionalBuilder<O>, CopyRecordsError>where
Octs: Octets,
R: ComposeRecord + 's,
F: FnMut(ParsedRecord<'s, Octs>) -> Option<R>,
T: Into<AnswerBuilder<O>>,
O: Composer,
Copy records from a message into the target message builder.
The method uses op to process records from all record sections
before inserting, caller can use this closure to filter or manipulate
records before inserting.
