# DNSCrypt Go
Golang-implementation of the [DNSCrypt v2 protocol](https://dnscrypt.info/protocol).
This repo includes everything you need to work with DNSCrypt. You can run your own resolver, make DNS lookups to other DNSCrypt resolvers, and you can use it as a library in your own projects.

## Command-line tool
`dnscrypt` is a helper tool that can work as a DNSCrypt client or server.
Please note, that even though this tool can work as a server, it's purpose is merely testing. Use [dnsproxy](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/dnsproxy) or [AdGuard Home](https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome) for real-life purposes.
### Running a server
Generate a configuration file for running a DNSCrypt server:
```shell script
./dnscrypt generate --provider-name=2.dnscrypt-cert.example.org --out=config.yaml
```
It will generate a configuration file that looks like this:
```yaml
provider_name: 2.dnscrypt-cert.example.org
public_key: F11DDBCC4817E543845FDDD4CB881849B64226F3DE397625669D87B919BC4FB0
private_key: 5752095FFA56D963569951AFE70FE1690F378D13D8AD6F8054DFAA100907F8B6F11DDBCC4817E543845FDDD4CB881849B64226F3DE397625669D87B919BC4FB0
resolver_secret: 9E46E79FEB3AB3D45F4EB3EA957DEAF5D9639A0179F1850AFABA7E58F87C74C4
resolver_public: 9327C5E64783E19C339BD6B680A56DB85521CC6E4E0CA5DF5274E2D3CE026C6B
es_version: 1
certificate_ttl: 0s
```
* `provider_name` - DNSCrypt resolver name.
* `public_key`, `private_key` - keypair that is used by the DNSCrypt resolver to sign the certificate.
* `resolver_secret`, `resolver_public` - keypair that is used by the DNSCrypt resolver to encrypt and decrypt messages.
* `es_version` - crypto to use. Can be `1` (XSalsa20Poly1305) or `2` (XChacha20Poly1305).
* `certificate_ttl` - certificate time-to-live. By default it's set to `0` and in this case 1-year cert is generated. The certificate is generated on `dnscrypt` start-up and it will only be valid for the specified amount of time. You should periodically restart `dnscrypt` to rotate the cert.
This configuration file can be used to run a DNSCrypt forwarding server:
```shell script
./dnscrypt server --config=config.yaml --forward=94.140.14.140:53
```
Now you can go to https://dnscrypt.info/stamps and use `provider_name` and `public_key` from this configuration to generate a DNS stamp. Here's how it looks like for a server running on `127.0.0.1:443`:
```
sdns://AQcAAAAAAAAADTEyNy4wLjAuMTo0NDMg8R3bzEgX5UOEX93Uy4gYSbZCJvPeOXYlZp2HuRm8T7AbMi5kbnNjcnlwdC1jZXJ0LmV4YW1wbGUub3Jn
```
### Making lookups
You can use that stamp to send a DNSCrypt request to your server:
```
./dnscrypt lookup-stamp \
--stamp=sdns://AQcAAAAAAAAADTEyNy4wLjAuMTo0NDMg8R3bzEgX5UOEX93Uy4gYSbZCJvPeOXYlZp2HuRm8T7AbMi5kbnNjcnlwdC1jZXJ0LmV4YW1wbGUub3Jn \
--domain=example.org \
--type=a
```
You can also send a DNSCrypt request using a command that does not require stamps:
```
./dnscrypt lookup \
--provider-name=2.dnscrypt-cert.opendns.com \
--public-key=b7351140206f225d3e2bd822d7fd691ea1c33cc8d6668d0cbe04bfabca43fb79 \
--addr=208.67.220.220 \
--domain=example.org \
--type=a
```
## Programming interface
### Client
```go
// AdGuard DNS stamp
stampStr := "sdns://AQIAAAAAAAAAFDE3Ni4xMDMuMTMwLjEzMDo1NDQzINErR_JS3PLCu_iZEIbq95zkSV2LFsigxDIuUso_OQhzIjIuZG5zY3J5cHQuZGVmYXVsdC5uczEuYWRndWFyZC5jb20"
// Initializing the DNSCrypt client
c := dnscrypt.Client{Net: "udp", Timeout: 10 * time.Second}
// Fetching and validating the server certificate
resolverInfo, err := client.Dial(stampStr)
if err != nil {
return err
}
// Create a DNS request
req := dns.Msg{}
req.Id = dns.Id()
req.RecursionDesired = true
req.Question = []dns.Question{
{Name: "google-public-dns-a.google.com.", Qtype: dns.TypeA, Qclass: dns.ClassINET},
}
// Get the DNS response
reply, err := c.Exchange(&req, resolverInfo)
```
## Server
```go
// Prepare the test DNSCrypt server config
rc, err := dnscrypt.GenerateResolverConfig("example.org", nil)
if err != nil {
return err
}
cert, err := rc.CreateCert()
if err != nil {
return err
}
s := &dnscrypt.Server{
ProviderName: rc.ProviderName,
ResolverCert: cert,
Handler: dnscrypt.DefaultHandler,
}
// Prepare TCP listener
tcpConn, err := net.ListenTCP("tcp", &net.TCPAddr{IP: net.IPv4zero, Port: 443})
if err != nil {
return err
}
// Prepare UDP listener
udpConn, err := net.ListenUDP("udp", &net.UDPAddr{IP: net.IPv4zero, Port: 443})
if err != nil {
return err
}
// Start the server
go s.ServeUDP(udpConn)
go s.ServeTCP(tcpConn)
```
