Mario DNS tool

Example instance: dns.acetone.i2p.

Tool for resolving domain names with web interface and API. Meshname / meship supported.

C++, Qt5.

For what?

The main use of the tool is to translate IPv6 addresses to meship domains for use in services without IPv6 support. Meship (and meshname) domains are resolved by meshnamed.

Also, the tool can be used as a supplement to projects that need to resolve domain names to addresses with simple API. Mario DNS provides API with output in JSON format:

# Request:
/api/toConverting=dns.acetone.ygg

# Answer:
{
    "status": true,
    "answer": [
        "324:71e:281a:9ed3::53"
    ]
}

You can use version request for version information.
