NAME
TinyDNS::Record - Parse a single TinyDNS Record.
DESCRIPTION
This module provides an object API to a single TinyDNS record/line.
It is not quite valid because:
We ignore SOA records, which Amazon would handle for us.
Our TXT records handling uses "T" not ":".
Our SRV records are non-standard.
Our MX record handling allows a name to be set without IP.
There are probably other differences.
METHODS
new
Constructor, which sets the type of the object.
The constructor is expected to be passed a valid line of text which describes a single record, for example +example.example.com:1.2.3.4:200.
input
Return the text that this record was created with.
valid
Is this record valid? Return 0 or 1 as appropriate.
type
Return the type this record has, such as "A", "AAAA", "NS", etc.
ttl
Return the TTL of this recrd.
If no TTL was explicitly specified we default to 300 seconds, or five minutes.
name
Get the name of this record.
value
Get the value of this record.
add
Add a new value to the existing record.
This is used by the TinyDNS::Reader::Merged module.
stringify
Convert the record to a string, suitable for printing.
hash
