DNS-based language dictionary
=============================
This example shows how to create a simple language dictionary based on **DNS**
service within 15 minutes. The translation will be performed using TXT resource
records.
Key parts
---------
Initialization
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On **init()** module loads dictionary from a text file containing records in
``word [tab] translation`` format.
::
def init(id, cfg):
log_info("pythonmod: dict init")
f = open("examples/dict_data.txt", "r")
...
The suitable file can be found at http://slovnik.zcu.cz
DNS query and word lookup
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let's define the following format od DNS queries:
``word1[.]word2[.] ... wordN[.]{en,cs}[._dict_.cz.]``.
Word lookup is done by simple ``dict`` lookup from broken DNS request.
Query name is divided into a list of labels. This list is accessible as
``qname_list`` attribute.
::
aword = ' '.join(qstate.qinfo.qname_list[0:-4]) #skip last four labels
adict = qstate.qinfo.qname_list[-4] #get 4th label from the end
words = [] #list of words
if (adict == "en") and (aword in en_dict):
words = en_dict[aword]
if (adict == "cs") and (aword in cz_dict):
words = cz_dict[aword] # CS -> EN
In the first step, we get a string in the form:
``word1[space]word2[space]...word[space]``.
In the second assignment, fourth label from the end is obtained. This label
should contains *"cs"* or *"en"*. This label determines the direction of
translation.
Forming of a DNS reply
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DNS reply is formed only on valid match and added as TXT answer.
::
msg = DNSMessage(qstate.qinfo.qname_str, RR_TYPE_TXT, RR_CLASS_IN, PKT_AA)
for w in words:
msg.answer.append("%s 300 IN TXT \"%s\"" % (qstate.qinfo.qname_str, w.replace("\"", "\\\"")))
if not msg.set_return_msg(qstate):
qstate.ext_state[id] = MODULE_ERROR
return True
qstate.return_rcode = RCODE_NOERROR
qstate.ext_state[id] = MODULE_FINISHED
return True
In the first step, a :class:`DNSMessage` instance is created for a given query
*(type TXT)*.
The fourth argument specifies the flags *(authoritative answer)*.
In the second step, we append TXT records containing the translation *(on the
right side of RR)*.
Then, the response is finished and ``qstate.return_msg`` contains new response.
If no error, the module sets :attr:`module_qstate.return_rcode` and
:attr:`module_qstate.ext_state`.
**Steps:**
1. create :class:`DNSMessage` instance
2. append TXT records containing the translation
3. set response to ``qstate.return_msg``
Testing
-------
Run the Unbound server:
``root@localhost>unbound -dv -c ./test-dict.conf``
In case you use own configuration file, don't forget to enable Python module::
module-config: "validator python iterator"
and use valid script path::
python-script: "./examples/dict.py"
The translation from english word *"a bar fly"* to Czech can be done by doing:
``>>>dig TXT @127.0.0.1 a.bar.fly.en._dict_.cz``

Proof that the unbound still works as resolver.
