dns-lookup
dns-lookup resolves a domain (e.g. 'yandex.ru') into the first found AAAA (IPv6) record or, if not found, into the first found A (IPv4) record.
If you don't care about order, you may want to use method lookup
from dns
module.
More info
- node.js v0.10.* automatically uses both IPv4 and IPv6 versions.
- node.js v0.11.* allows you to specify the protocol version in the request parameters (
http.request
) withfamily
property.
Testing your code
Starting from node.js v0.11.* you can run your script with NODE_DEBUG=net
environment variable and it will output dns parameters into console.
You also may want to use tcpdump.

npm i dns-lookup
