        ## INTRODUCTION
        
        dnspython is a DNS toolkit for Python. It supports almost all record types. It
        can be used for queries, zone transfers, and dynamic updates. It supports TSIG
        authenticated messages and EDNS0.
        
        dnspython provides both high and low level access to DNS. The high level classes
        perform queries for data of a given name, type, and class, and return an answer
        set. The low level classes allow direct manipulation of DNS zones, messages,
        names, and records.
        
        To see a few of the ways dnspython can be used, look in the `examples/`
        directory.
        
        dnspython is a utility to work with DNS, `/etc/hosts` is thus not used. For
        simple forward DNS lookups, it's better to use `socket.getaddrinfo()` or
        `socket.gethostbyname()`.
        
        dnspython originated at Nominum where it was developed
        to facilitate the testing of DNS software.
        
        ## ABOUT THIS RELEASE
        
        This is dnspython 2.2.1
        Please read
        [What's New](https://dnspython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/whatsnew.html) for
        information about the changes in this release.
        
        ## INSTALLATION
        
        * Many distributions have dnspython packaged for you, so you should
          check there first.
        * If you have pip installed, you can do `pip install dnspython`
        * If not just download the source file and unzip it, then run
          `sudo python setup.py install`
        * To install the latest from the master branch, run `pip install git+https://github.com/rthalley/dnspython.git`
        
        Dnspython's default installation does not depend on any modules other than
        those in the Python standard library.  To use some features, additional modules
        must be installed.  For convenience, pip options are defined for the requirements.
        
        If you want to use DNS-over-HTTPS, run
        `pip install dnspython[doh]`.
        
        If you want to use DNSSEC functionality, run
        `pip install dnspython[dnssec]`.
        
        If you want to use internationalized domain names (IDNA)
        functionality, you must run
        `pip install dnspython[idna]`
        
        If you want to use the Trio asynchronous I/O package, run
        `pip install dnspython[trio]`.
        
        If you want to use the Curio asynchronous I/O package, run
        `pip install dnspython[curio]`.
        
        If you want to use WMI on Windows to determine the active DNS settings
        instead of the default registry scanning method, run
        `pip install dnspython[wmi]`.
        
        Note that you can install any combination of the above, e.g.:
        `pip install dnspython[doh,dnssec,idna]`
        
        ### Notices
        
        Python 2.x support ended with the release of 1.16.0.  Dnspython 2.0.0 through
        2.2.x support Python 3.6 and later.  As of dnspython 2.3.0, the minimum
        supported Python version will be 3.7.  We plan to align future support with the
        lifetime of the Python 3 versions.
        
        Documentation has moved to
        [dnspython.readthedocs.io](https://dnspython.readthedocs.io).
        
        The ChangeLog has been discontinued.  Please see the github project page
        and git history for detailed change information.
