@apiverve/dnslookup

DNS Lookup API

DNS Lookup is a simple tool for looking up the DNS records of a domain. It returns the A, MX, and other records of the domain.

This is a Javascript Wrapper for the DNS Lookup API

Installation

Using npm:

npm install @apiverve/dnslookup

Using yarn:

yarn add @apiverve/dnslookup

Configuration

Before using the DNS Lookup API client, you have to setup your account and obtain your API Key. You can get it by signing up at https://apiverve.com

Quick Start

Get started with the Quick Start Guide

The DNS Lookup API documentation is found here: https://docs.apiverve.com/ref/dnslookup. You can find parameters, example responses, and status codes documented here.

Setup

const dnslookupAPI = require('@apiverve/dnslookup');
const api = new dnslookupAPI({
    api_key: '[YOUR_API_KEY]'
});

Usage

Perform Request

Using the API is simple. All you have to do is make a request. The API will return a response with the data you requested.

var query = {
  domain: "myspace.com"
};

api.execute(query, function (error, data) {
    if (error) {
        return console.error(error);
    } else {
        console.log(data);
    }
});

Using Promises

You can also use promises to make requests. The API returns a promise that you can use to handle the response.

var query = {
  domain: "myspace.com"
};

api.execute(query)
    .then(data => {
        console.log(data);
    })
    .catch(error => {
        console.error(error);
    });

Using Async/Await

You can also use async/await to make requests. The API returns a promise that you can use to handle the response.

async function makeRequest() {
    var query = {
  domain: "myspace.com"
};

    try {
        const data = await api.execute(query);
        console.log(data);
    } catch (error) {
        console.error(error);
    }
}
