  choose_relativity(self, origin, relativize)
Convert any domain names in the rdata to the specified relativization.
int covers(self)
DNS SIG/RRSIG rdatas apply to a specific type; this type is returned by the covers() function. (inherited from Rdata)
int extended_rdatatype(self)
Return a 32-bit type value, the least significant 16 bits of which are the ordinary DNS type, and the upper 16 bits of which are the "covered" type, if any. (inherited from Rdata)
string to_text(self, origin, relativize, **kw)
Convert an rdata to text format.
string to_wire(self, file, compress, origin)
Convert an rdata to wire format.
  _cmp(self, other)
Compare an rdata with another rdata of the same rdtype and rdclass.

Method Details

__new__(S, ...)

Returns:
a new object with type S, a subtype of T

choose_relativity(self, origin=None, relativize=True)

Convert any domain names in the rdata to the specified relativization.
Overrides:
dns.rdata.Rdata.choose_relativity (inherited documentation)

to_text(self, origin=None, relativize=True, **kw)

Convert an rdata to text format.
Returns:
string
Overrides:
dns.rdata.Rdata.to_text (inherited documentation)

to_wire(self, file, compress=None, origin=None)

Convert an rdata to wire format.
Returns:
string
Overrides:
dns.rdata.Rdata.to_wire (inherited documentation)

_cmp(self, other)

Compare an rdata with another rdata of the same rdtype and rdclass. Return < 0 if self < other in the DNSSEC ordering, 0 if self == other, and > 0 if self > other.
Overrides:
dns.rdata.Rdata._cmp (inherited documentation)
