Net::DN...R::DSYNC(3)

💅 Net::DN...R::DSYNC(3) — the DNS DSYNC resource record page, bestie edition 🎀

okay so this is Net::DN...R::DSYNC(3), from the User Contributed Perl Documentation fam — and it's literally the whole manual for DNS DSYNC resource records. buckle up, it's cute and also extremely niche ✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

Net::DNS::RR::DSYNC — DNS DSYNC resource record. that's it, that's the name 🫶

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

use Net::DNS;
$rr = Net::DNS::RR->new('name DSYNC rrtype scheme port target');

that's the whole vibe check — one new call and you're in business 💖

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This here is the class for DNS Generalized Notify (DSYNC) resource records. like, the whole class. dedicated. main character energy 👑

---

🎀 METHODS 🎀

The available methods are the ones you inherit from the base class, plus the type-specific methods this package defines. it's giving "family recipe plus my own little twist" ngl 💅

🙈 real talk though: use of undocumented package features or direct access to internal data structures is discouraged — and it could result in program termination or other unpredictable behaviour. not the cute kind of unpredictable. the 💀 kind. so like... don't.

⭐ rrtype

$rrtype = $rr->rrtype;
$rr->rrtype($rrtype);

This is the type of generalized NOTIFY for which this DSYNC RR defines the desired target address. yes bestie, it's the "which notification are we even talking about" field 🔥

⭐ scheme

$scheme = $rr->scheme;
$rr->scheme( $scheme );

The scheme tells you the mode used for locating the notification address. it's an 8 bit unsigned integer. and listen — records with value 0 (the null scheme) are ignored by consumers. so if you set it to zero, nobody's picking up what you're putting down 😭✨

⭐ port

$port = $rr->port;
$rr->port( $port );

The port on the host that's providing the notification service. 16 bit unsigned integer, no cap 🎀

⭐ target

$target = $rr->target;
$rr->target( $target );

The domain name of the target host providing the service which listens for notifications of the specified type. and this name MUST resolve to one or more address records — that's a hard requirement, not a suggestion, periodt 💅
