DNS Record Analysis and Storage Tool

---

DRAST is a versatile Python program designed to analyze and collect DNS record data for domains stored in a DNS server. It supports a variety of record types, including A, AAAA, MX, NS, SOA, TXT, CNAME, PTR, SRV and CAA. The collected data can be saved to a file or an SQLite3 database.

---

Features

• Collect A, AAAA, MX, NS, SOA, TXT, CNAME, PTR, SRV, CAA records.
• Collect data into a text file.
• Add custom DNS IP address.
• Location information for type A record.
• Add collected data to an SQLite3 database.
• Suspended mode for continuous data collection and program operation, allowing users to modify dns_domains.txt while the program runs.
• Interactive and command-line modes for flexibility in usage.

Installation

Requirements

• Python 3

Instructions

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/ariolus/DRAST

2. Install dependencies:

   cd DRUST
   pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Usage

1. To add and edit a bulk list with domains, go to the Domain_list directory and edit the dns_domains.txt file:

   cd Domain_list
   vim dns_domains.txt

   Add the domains each from a new line to the file in the following formats:

   example.com
   www.example.com
   

   Alternatively, you can use the -i flag to specify a file containing a list of domains for bulk processing:

   python3 main.py -b -i /path/to/file.txt

   The file should contain one domain per line.

2. Once you have edited the file, you can run the program in one of two modes:

   • Interactive Mode:

     Use the following command for interactive mode:

     python3 main.py -I

     Interactive mode allows real-time interaction with the program.

   • Normal Mode:

     For more options and information, you can check the help menu:

     python3 main.py -h

     Example: Resolve a single domain in JSON format:

     python3 main.py -s example.com -j

     Example: Bulk resolve domains from a file in dictionary format:

     python3 main.py -b -i /path/to/file.txt -d

     Example: Use SQL mode with a custom DNS IP address and suspended mode:

     python3 main.py --sql --dns 8.8.8.8 -S

3. During operation, the program will create a directory called Output in which the data files will be saved. File names are represented as date and time. Also, if there is a need to use another output directory, the flag '-o PATH' can be used.

4. The program creates a resolver.db file in the root directory of the program and saves all the received data in it. When the program is in suspended mode, users can modify the dns_domains.txt file without disrupting the data collection process. To enter suspended mode, press CTRL + Z in the terminal. To resume the program, use the fg command.
