CoreDNS-004 has been released!

CoreDNS is a DNS server that chains plugins, where each plugin implements a DNS feature.

What is New

Core

We are now also releasing an ARM build that can run on Raspberry Pi.

Plugin improvements

• file|auto: resolve external CNAME when an upstream (new option) is specified.
• file|auto: allow port numbers for transfer from/to to be specified.
• file|auto: include zone’s NSset in positive responses.
• auto: close files and don’t leak file descriptors.
• httpproxy: new plugin that proxies to https://dns.google.com and resolves your requests over an encrypted connection. This plugin will probably be morphed into proxy at some point in the feature. Consider it experimental for the time being.
• metrics: response_size_bytes and request_size_bytes export the actual length of the packet, not the advertised bufsize.
• log: {size} is now the length in bytes of the request, {rsize} for the reply. Default logging is changed to show both.
