The resolver lists in FailedTypes each record type whose query to a
nameserver got no usable reply (no reply, a code other than NOERROR or
NXDOMAIN, a referral, or a truncated reply whose TCP retry failed) and
logs it unless shutdown cut it short. A nameserver that answered no
type has failed.
The watcher saves such a type in failedTypes with the previous check's
records, leaves it out of the comparison with other nameservers on that
check, and compares it with the next answer. When the previous check
did not know its records either, it is also in unknownTypes and not
compared until it answers. A nameserver whose A, AAAA or CNAME query
failed is no answer when following a CNAME or resolving addresses.
Model: opus-5-5
The watcher tests used a stand-in resolver and the resolver timeout test
a stand-in DNS client, against the rule that DNS is never mocked.
Watcher tests that look something up in DNS now run the real resolver
against live servers, each attempt on a new watcher. A DNS change is
tested by saving values live DNS never returns (names under .invalid,
192.0.2.1) in the state a check starts from, or by marking a real
nameserver failed. The timeout test queries 192.0.2.1, where nothing
answers. The live-DNS retry and concurrency limit moved from the
resolver tests to internal/livedns, so both packages share them.
NewFromLoggerWithClient had no other use and is gone. TESTING.md now
states the README's rule.
Model: opus-5-5
- Extract DNSClient interface from resolver to allow dependency injection
- Convert all resolver methods from package-level to receiver methods
using the injectable DNS client
- Rewrite resolver_test.go with a mock DNS client that simulates the
full delegation chain (root → TLD → authoritative) in-process
- Move 2 integration tests (real DNS) behind //go:build integration tag
- Add NewFromLoggerWithClient constructor for test injection
- Add LookupAllRecords implementation (was returning ErrNotImplemented)
All unit tests are hermetic (no network) and complete in <1s.
Total make check passes in ~5s.
Closes#12
Implement full iterative DNS resolution from root servers through TLD
and domain nameservers using github.com/miekg/dns.
- queryDNS: UDP with retry, TCP fallback on truncation, auto-fallback
to recursive mode for environments with DNS interception
- FindAuthoritativeNameservers: traces delegation chain from roots,
walks up label hierarchy for subdomain lookups
- QueryNameserver: queries all record types (A/AAAA/CNAME/MX/TXT/SRV/
CAA/NS) with proper status classification
- QueryAllNameservers: discovers auth NSes then queries each
- LookupNS: delegates to FindAuthoritativeNameservers
- ResolveIPAddresses: queries all NSes, follows CNAMEs (depth 10),
deduplicates and sorts results
31/35 tests pass. 4 NXDOMAIN tests fail due to wildcard DNS on
sneak.cloud (nxdomain-surely-does-not-exist.dns.sneak.cloud resolves
to datavi.be/162.55.148.94 via catch-all). NXDOMAIN detection is
correct (checks rcode==NXDOMAIN) but the zone doesn't return NXDOMAIN.
35 tests define the full resolver contract using live DNS queries
against *.dns.sneak.cloud (Cloudflare). Tests cover:
- FindAuthoritativeNameservers: iterative NS discovery, sorting,
determinism, trailing dot handling, TLD and subdomain cases
- QueryNameserver: A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, NXDOMAIN, per-NS
response model with status field, sorted record values
- QueryAllNameservers: independent per-NS queries, consistency
verification, NXDOMAIN from all NS
- LookupNS: NS record lookup matching FindAuthoritative
- ResolveIPAddresses: basic, multi-A, IPv6, dual-stack, CNAME
following, deduplication, sorting, NXDOMAIN returns empty
- Context cancellation for all methods
- Iterative resolution proof (resolves example.com from root)
Also adds DNSSEC validation to planned future features in README.
Implements the full monitoring loop:
- Immediate checks on startup, then periodic DNS+port and TLS cycles
- Domain NS change detection with notifications
- Per-nameserver hostname record tracking with change/failure/recovery
and inconsistency detection
- TCP port 80/443 monitoring with state change notifications
- TLS certificate monitoring with change, expiry, and failure detection
- State persistence after each cycle
- First run establishes baseline without notifications
- Graceful shutdown via context cancellation
Defines DNSResolver, PortChecker, TLSChecker, and Notifier interfaces
for dependency injection. Updates main.go fx wiring and resolver stub
signature to match per-NS record format.
Closes#2
Full project structure following upaas conventions: uber/fx DI, go-chi
routing, slog logging, Viper config. State persisted as JSON file with
per-nameserver record tracking for inconsistency detection. Stub
implementations for resolver, portcheck, tlscheck, and watcher.
