Project description

checkdmarc

Build Status

A Python module and command line utility for validating SPF and DMARC DNS records

usage: checkdmarc  [-h] [-p] [--ns NS [NS ...]] [--mx MX [MX ...]] [-d]
                   [-f FORMAT] [-o OUTPUT [OUTPUT ...]]
                   [-n NAMESERVER [NAMESERVER ...]] [-t TIMEOUT] [-v]
                   [-w WAIT] [--skip-tls] [--debug]
                   domain [domain ...]

 Validates and parses SPF amd DMARC DNS records

 positional arguments:
   domain                one or more domains, or a single path to a file
                         containing a list of domains

 optional arguments:
   -h, --help            show this help message and exit
   -p, --parked          indicate that the domains are parked
   --ns NS [NS ...]      approved nameserver substrings
   --mx MX [MX ...]      approved MX hostname substrings
   -d, --descriptions    include descriptions of DMARC tags in the JSON output
   -f FORMAT, --format FORMAT
                         specify JSON or CSV screen output format
   -o OUTPUT [OUTPUT ...], --output OUTPUT [OUTPUT ...]
                         one or more file paths to output to (must end in .json
                         or .csv) (silences screen output)
   -n NAMESERVER [NAMESERVER ...], --nameserver NAMESERVER [NAMESERVER ...]
                         nameservers to query (Default is Cloudflare's
   -t TIMEOUT, --timeout TIMEOUT
                         number of seconds to wait for an answer from DNS
                         (default 6.0)
   -v, --version         show program's version number and exit
   -w WAIT, --wait WAIT  number of seconds to wait between checking domains
                         (default 0.0)
   --skip-tls            skip TLS/SSL testing
   --debug               enable debugging output
