Blob DNS — global DNS checker CLI 🌐

Like dig or dog but checks DNS records in three regions:

  • USA (Ohio)
  • Germany (Frankfurt)
  • Singapore

Unlike other similar tools that connect to remote nameservers, blobdns actually runs the DNS queries globally by utilizing Blob's distributed DNS checking API.

This approach will actually test the DNS record propagation from the perspective of real users, located in those countries.

It can be useful to see how your DNS records propagate blobally ;)

Usage:

blobdns <arguments> [options]

Examples:
  blobdns example.com
  blobdns example.com A
  blobdns foo.example.com bar.example.com CNAME

  # Get AAAA record from 1.1.1.1 Cloudflare server
  blobdns example.com AAAA @1.1.1.1

Arguments:
  <arguments> domains, records, nameservers

Options:
  -v, --version Print version information
  -h, --help Print list of options

Example output

blobdns example.com
