Stellar Nameserver Service

The Stellar Nameserver service provides service discovery via DNS. Every node runs a local resolver so there is a single hop to lookup a record. This also makes it more fault tolerant. The nameserver service uses the same core library that CoreDNS uses (miekg/dns). Upon application deployment, records will automatically be added:

demo.web00.stellar    A                   172.16.0.4
demo.web00.stellar    TXT                 node=ctr-00; updated=2018-09-09T18:01:31-04:00

If an endpoint is specified in the application, an SRV record will also be added:

demo.web00.stellar    SRV   demo.web00.stellar      service=web proto=http priority=0 weight=0 port=8080

To be more friendly to ops, you can also add custom records:

NAME:
   sctl nameserver create - create nameserver record

USAGE:
   sctl nameserver create [command options] NAME VALUE

OPTIONS:
   --type value, -t value  resource record type (A, CNAME, TXT, SRV, MX) (default: "A")
