CoreDNS-1.0.5 Release

CoreDNS-1.0.5 Release Notes.

We are pleased to announce the release of CoreDNS-1.0.5! This release has bug fixes, documentation fixes, polish and new plugins.

Core

Add ability to really compile out the default plugins.

Plugins

  • A new plugin route53 was added that enables serving zone data from AWS route53, see the documentation.

  • A new plugin on was added. This is an external Caddy plugin, that is now also available (by default) for CoreDNS; it allows you to run commands when an event is generated.

  • cache doesn’t apply a 5s minimum TTL anymore. It fixes prefetching and correctly sets the metrics for cache hits and misses.

  • dnssec fixes handing out expired signatures after 8 days and properly filters out the qtype in the NSEC bitmap for NXDOMAIN responses.

  • log adds message ID {>id} to the default logging.

  • health has gotten a lameduck option that will nack health, but will keep the server running for a configurable duration when CoreDNS is being shut down. If metrics are enabled health exports a metric that curls the local endpoint and exports the duration. Useful for getting a sense of overloadedness of the process.

  • rewrite can now rewrite answers for name regex matches. This prevents DNS clients from ignoring the answers due to a mismatch with the original question.

  • secondary saw a bunch of fixes.
