If you want *any* other type of DNS record, you are pretty much
forced to either use one of the horrible DNS resolving libraries or
roll your own. I would tout my own DNS library [1], but it's in C
(and has a Lua wrapper for it).
C programmers are lucky, there are two excellent free, documented,maintained and complete libraries to do DNS requests, ldns<https://www.nlnetlabs.nl/projects/ldns/> and getdns<https://getdnsapi.net/>.
Python programmers have one, dnspython <https://www.dnspython.org/>.
Other languages… it depends. Last time I checked for Elixir, it wasnot good.
