Node.js - dnsPromises.resolveMx() Method
The dnsPromises.resolveMx() method uses the DNS protocol to resolve the mail exchange records (MX Records) for the hostname. The promise is resolved with an array of objects containing both a priority and exchange property on success.
Syntax
dnsPromises.resolveMx( hostname )
where, hostname is the parameter that takes the input for the hostname to be resolved.
Example 1
Create a file with the name "resolveMx.js" and copy the following code snippet. After creating the file, use the command "node resolveMx.js" to run this code as shown in the example below −
// dns.resolveMx() Demo Example // Importing the dns module const dns = require('dns'); const dnsPromises = dns.promises; // Passing IP to find the hostname TXT records dnsPromises.resolveMx('tutorialspoint.com').then((response) => { console.log("MX Records: ", response); })
Output
C:\home
ode>> node resolveMx.js MX Records: [ { exchange: 'alt3.aspmx.l.google.com', priority: 10 }, { exchange: 'alt2.aspmx.l.google.com', priority: 5 }, { exchange: 'alt1.aspmx.l.google.com', priority: 5 }, { exchange: 'aspmx.l.google.com', priority: 1 }, { exchange: 'alt4.aspmx.l.google.com', priority: 10 } ]
Example 2
// dns.resolveMx() Demo Example // Importing the dns module const dns = require('dns'); const dnsPromises = dns.promises; // Setting ttl as true const options={ ttl:true, }; // Calling dnsPromises.resolveMx() method // asynchronously (async function() { const records = await dnsPromises.resolveMx('google.com', options); // Printing records console.log("MX Records: ", records); })();
Output
C:\home
ode>> node resolveMx.js MX Records: [ { exchange: 'alt4.aspmx.l.google.com', priority: 50 }, { exchange: 'aspmx.l.google.com', priority: 10 }, { exchange: 'alt3.aspmx.l.google.com', priority: 40 }, { exchange: 'alt1.aspmx.l.google.com', priority: 20 }, { exchange: 'alt2.aspmx.l.google.com', priority: 30 } ]
