host.tcl

The script host.tcl resolves host names or IP addresses using the tool "host" with the !host command.

Setup

The script requires the tool "host" that is part of the bind tools. If the "host" tool is not available on your system, you need to install it first.

You can change the path to the "host" tool in the namespace variable hostCmd that you can find at the top of the script:

# path to host tool
variable hostCmd "/usr/bin/host"

You can enable the !host command for a specific channel by setting the host flag for the channel in your Eggdrop. For example, enable the script in the channel #test with the following Eggdrop command:

.chanset #test +host

Accordingly, you can disable the !host command for a specific channel by removing the host flag from the channel in your Eggdrop. For example, disable the script in the channel #test with the following Eggdrop command:

.chanset #test -host

Usage

After enabling the script and the !host command in a channel, you can use the !host command in that channel as shown below.

Resolve name or IP address:

!host <name|ip>

Examples

Example of resolving a host name:

15:38 <@hwipl> !host google.com
15:38 < FooBot> google.com has address 172.217.22.46
15:38 < FooBot> google.com has IPv6 address 2a00:1450:4001:814::200e
15:38 < FooBot> google.com mail is handled by 20 alt1.aspmx.l.google.com.
15:38 < FooBot> google.com mail is handled by 30 alt2.aspmx.l.google.com.
15:38 < FooBot> google.com mail is handled by 50 alt4.aspmx.l.google.com.
15:38 < FooBot> google.com mail is handled by 10 aspmx.l.google.com.
15:38 < FooBot> google.com mail is handled by 40 alt3.aspmx.l.google.com.

Example of resolving an IPv4 address:

15:39 <@hwipl> !host 172.217.22.46
15:39 < FooBot> 46.22.217.172.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer
                fra15s16-in-f14.1e100.net.
15:39 < FooBot> 46.22.217.172.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer
                fra15s16-in-f46.1e100.net.

Example of resolving an IPv6 address:

15:39 <@hwipl> !host 2a00:1450:4001:814::200e
15:39 < FooBot> e.0.0.2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.4.1.8.0.1.0.0.4.0.5.4.1.0.0.a.
