dispatch

A coredns plugin for dispatch request to other upstream by matched domain.

Syntax

dispatch FROM... {
    to TO...
    
    healthcheck DURATION
    maxfails INTEGER
}

FROM... is the file list which contains base domain to match for the request to be redirected. URL can also be used.

.(i.e. root zone) can be used solely to match all incoming requests as a fallback.

Two kind of formats are supported currently:
- DOMAIN, which the whole line is the domain name.
- server=/DOMAIN/..., which is the format of dnsmasq config file, note that only the DOMAIN will be honored, other fields will be simply discarded.
Text after # character will be treated as comment.

Unparsable lines(including whitespace-only line) are therefore just ignored.
to TO... are the destination endpoints to redirected to. This is a mandatory option.

The to syntax allows you to specify a protocol, a port, etc:

[dns://]IP[:PORT] use protocol specified in incoming DNS requests, it may UDP or TCP.

[udp://]IP:[:PORT] use UDP protocol for DNS query, even if request comes in TCP.

[tcp://]IP:[:PORT] use TCP protocol for DNS query, even if request comes in UDP.

tls://IP[:PORT][@TLS_SERVER_NAME] for DNS over TLS, if you combine : and @, @ must come last. Be aware of some DoT servers require TLS server name as a mandatory option.

json-doh://URL use JSON DNS over HTTPS for DNS query.

ietf-doh://URL use IETF(RFC 8484) DNS over HTTPS for DNS query.

doh://URL randomly choose JSON or IETF DNS over HTTPS for DNS query, make sure the upstream host support both of type.

Example:
```
dns://1.1.1.1
8.8.8.8
tcp://9.9.9.9
udp://2606:4700:4700::1111

tls://[email protected]
tls://8.8.8.8
tls://dns.quad9.net

doh://cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query
json-doh://1.1.1.1/dns-query
json-doh://dns.google/resolve
ietf-doh://dns.quad9.net/dns-query
```

Example

.:53 {
    dispatch https://expample.com/dnsmasq-dns.conf custom-domain.conf {
        to 1.1.1.1 tls://[email protected]
        
        healthcheck 10s
        maxfails 5
        reload 24h
    }
    dispatch home.conf {
        to 10.1.1.10:53
    }
    forward . 8.8.8.8 
}
