💅 NAME 💅

Net::DNS::RR::KEY — the DNS KEY resource record, bestie. That's it, that's the whole vibe. 🎀

Oh and hi, you're reading the Net::DNS::RR::KEY(3) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation collection — welcome to the group chat. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so literally all you need:

use Net::DNS;
$rr = Net::DNS::RR->new('name KEY flags protocol algorithm publickey');

That's the whole thing. use Net::DNS; and then you build the record with those fields in that order — name KEY flags protocol algorithm publickey, no cap. 🔥

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

It's a DNS KEY resource record. Periodt.

But here's the tea: this class is a clone of the DNSKEY record and it inherits all the properties of the Net::DNS::RR::DNSKEY class. Like, all of them. Every single one. 👑

So if you want the actual details — the real deets — please see the Net::DNS::RR::DNSKEY documentation. That's where the lore lives. Go read it, iykyk. 💖

🌸 METHODS 🌸

The methods you get are the ones inherited from the base class, plus all the type-specific methods defined in this package. So basically: base class stuff + this package's stuff. Slay. ✨

⚠️ okay so real talk — using undocumented package features or going straight into the internal data structures is discouraged. Like, don't. It could result in program termination or other unpredictable behaviour and that is NOT the cute energy we're going for, bestie. 💀 Leave the internals alone.
