A simple Django app to serve DOH.

Project description

Django-doh

Django-doh is a simple Django app to serve a DOH (DNS Over HTTPS) Proxy. It resolves DNS query on HTTP.

Quick start

  1. Install via pip:
pip install django-doh
  1. Add 'doh_server' to your INSTALLED_APPS setting like this:
INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'doh_server',
]
  1. Include the doh_server URLconf in your project urls.py like this:
path('dns-query', include('doh_server.urls')),
  1. Add the conf in your settings like this:
DOH_SERVER = {
    "RESOLVER": "internal",
    # "RESOLVER": "8.8.8.8",
    "AUTHORITY": "",
    "LOGGER_LEVEL": "DEBUG",
}

To use the local resolver on the server where you run Django, use "internal".

Implementation

RFC 8484

Json implementation

Use with Firefox

in about:config edit:

network.trr.mode;3
network.trr.uri;https://127.0.0.1/dns-query

For the URI, add your URI for your reverse proxy serving Django.

You can use Nginx as reverse proxy :

events {
}
http {
    server {
        listen 443 ssl http2 default_server;
        location /dns-query {
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000/dns-query;
        }
        ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/cert.pem;
        ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/key.pem;
    }
}

Test suite

Run using tox.
