Installation
============
2014-10-05 21:44:31 +00:00
Prerequisites
-------------
2014-10-05 21:44:31 +00:00
Python 2.4 or higher, SWIG 1.3 or higher, GNU make
Compiling
---------
2014-10-05 21:44:31 +00:00
After downloading, you can compile the pyUnbound library by doing::
> tar -xzf unbound-x.x.x-py.tar.gz
> cd unbound-x.x.x
> ./configure --with-pyunbound
> make
2014-10-05 21:44:31 +00:00
You may want to enable ``--with-pythonmodule`` as well if you want to use
python as a module in the resolver.
2014-10-05 21:44:31 +00:00
You need ``GNU make`` to compile sources; ``SWIG`` and ``Python devel``
libraries to compile extension module.

Testing
-------
2014-10-05 21:44:31 +00:00
If the compilation is successful, you can test the python LDNS extension module
by::
2014-10-05 21:44:31 +00:00
> cd contrib/python
> make testenv
> ./dns-lookup.py
2014-10-05 21:44:31 +00:00
You may want to ``make install`` in the main directory since ``make testenv``
is for debugging. In contrib/examples you can find simple applications written
in Python using the Unbound extension.
