GoNS

GoNS is experimental name server in golang.

Install from binary

You're free to download up-to-date binary from gobuild.io.

Authentication

You must use HTTP Basic authentication. Username and password is set in configuration file.

Handling errors

If GoNS is having trouble, you might see a 5xx error. 500 means that the app is entirely down, but you might also see 502 Bad Gateway, 503 Service Unavailable, or 504 Gateway Timeout. It's your responsibility in all of these cases to retry your request later.
