Description-en: raw DNS interface to the Docker API
"rawdns" is a DNS forwarder that allows for DNS requests to return the IP
addresses of Docker containers directly.
.
For example, if one has a container named "app", then a request for
"app.docker" would return the IP address of that container. Likewise, if the
"app" container has a linked database container whose alias name is "db", then
a request for "db.app.docker" would return the IP address of the linked
database container.
