NAME

dnstable - encoding format, library, and utilities for passive DNS data

DESCRIPTION

dnstable implements an encoding format for passive DNS data. It consists of a C library, libdnstable, and several command line utilities for creating, querying, and merging dnstable data files.

For details about how dnstable entries are encoded in data files, see dnstable-encoding(5).

The command line dnstable utilities are:

dnstable_dump(1)

Prints dnstable format files in text or JSON.

dnstable_lookup(1)

Searches dnstable data files.

dnstable_merge(1)

Merges multiple dnstable data files together.

The main interfaces provided by the dnstable library are:

dnstable_iter(3)

Provides a consistent interface for iterating over the data entries returned by other interfaces.

dnstable_entry(3)

Encapsulates the fields contained in individual data entries.

dnstable_query(3)

Encapsulates query parameters for searching a data source.

dnstable_reader(3)

Reads dnstable data from an mtbl source.

Also provided is the low-level dnstable_merge_func(3), a libmtbl-compatible merge function.
