+# Unbound with pythonmodule configured for Python 3
+# dnspython [http://www.dnspython.org]
+# pydbus [https://github.com/LEW21/pydbus]
+#
+# To enable Python 3 support, configure Unbound as follows:
+# PYTHON_VERSION=3 ./configure --with-pythonmodule
+#
+# The plugin in meant to be used as a fallback resolver that resolves
+# records in multicast DNS if the upstream server cannot be reached or
+# provides no answer (NXDOMAIN).
+#
+# mDNS requests for negative records, i.e., records for which Avahi
+# returns no answer (NXDOMAIN), are expensive. Since there is no
+# single authoritative server in mDNS, such requests terminate only
+# via a timeout. The timeout is about a second (if MDNS_TIMEOUT is not
+# configured), or the value configured via MDNS_TIMEOUT. The
+# corresponding Unbound thread will be blocked for this amount of
+# time. For this reason, it is important to configure an appropriate
+# number of threads in unbound.conf and limit the RR types and names
+# that will be resolved via Avahi via the environment variables
+# described later.
+#
+# An example unbound.conf with the plugin enabled:
+#
+# | server:
+# | module-config: "validator python iterator"
+# | num-threads: 32
+# | cache-max-negative-ttl: 60
+# | cache-max-ttl: 60
+#
+#
+# The plugin can also be run interactively. Provide the name and
+# record type to be resolved as command line arguments and the
+# resolved record will be printed to standard output:
+#
+# $ ./avahi-resolver.py voip-phx4.phxnet.org A
+# voip-phx4.phxnet.org. 120 IN A 10.4.3.2
+#
+#
+# The behavior of the plugin can be controlled via the following
+# environment variables:
+#
+# DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS
+#
+# The address of the system DBus bus, in the format expected by DBus,
+# e.g., unix:path=/run/avahi/system-bus.sock
+#
+#
+# DEBUG
+#
+# Set this environment variable to "yes", "true", "on", or "1" to
+# enable debugging. In debugging mode, the plugin will output a lot
+# more information about what it is doing either to the standard
+# output (when run interactively) or to Unbound via log_info and
+# log_error.
+#
+# By default debugging is disabled.
+#
+#
+# MDNS_TTL
+#
+# Avahi does not provide the TTL value for the records it returns.
+# This environment variable can be used to configure the TTL value for
+# such records.
+#
+# The default value is 120 seconds.
+#
+#
+# MDNS_TIMEOUT
+#
+# The maximum amount of time (in milliseconds) an Avahi request is
+# allowed to run. This value sets the time it takes to resolve
+# negative (non-existent) records in Avahi. If unset, the request
+# terminates when Avahi sends the "AllForNow" signal, telling the
+# client that more records are unlikely to arrive. This takes roughly
+# about one second. You may need to configure a longer value here on
+# slower networks, e.g., networks that relay mDNS packets such as
+# MANETs.
+#
+#
+# MDNS_GETONE
+#
+# If set to "true", "1", or "on", an Avahi request will terminate as
+# soon as at least one record has been found. If there are multiple
+# nodes in the mDNS network publishing the same record, only one (or
+# subset) will be returned.
+#
+# If set to "false", "0", or "off", the plugin will gather records for
+# MDNS_TIMEOUT and return all records found. This is only useful in
+# networks where multiple nodes are known to publish different records
+# under the same name and the client needs to be able to obtain them
+# all. When configured this way, all Avahi requests will always take
+# MDNS_TIMEOUT to complete!
+#
+# This option is set to true by default.
+#
+#
+# MDNS_REJECT_TYPES
+#
+# A comma-separated list of record types that will NOT be resolved in
+# mDNS via Avahi. Use this environment variable to prevent specific
+# record types from being resolved via Avahi. For example, if your
+# network does not support IPv6, you can put AAAA on this list.
+#
+# The default value is an empty list.
+#
+# Example: MDNS_REJECT_TYPES=aaaa,mx,soa
+#
+#
+# MDNS_ACCEPT_TYPES
+#
+# If set, a record type will be resolved via Avahi if and only if it
+# is present on this comma-separated list. In other words, this is a
+# whitelist.
+#
+# The default value is an empty list which means all record types will
+# be resolved via Avahi.
+#
+# Example: MDNS_ACCEPT_TYPES=a,ptr,txt,srv,aaaa,cname
+#
+#
+# MDNS_REJECT_NAMES
+#
+# If the name being resolved matches the regular expression in this
+# environment variable, the name will NOT be resolved via Avahi. In
+# other words, this environment variable provides a blacklist.
+#
+# The default value is empty--no names will be reject.
+#
+# Example: MDNS_REJECT_NAMES=(^|\.)example\.com\.$
+#
+#
+# MDNS_ACCEPT_NAMES
+#
+# If set to a regular expression, a name will be resolved via Avahi if
+# and only if it matches the regular expression. In other words, this
+# variable provides a whitelist.
+#
+# The default value is empty--all names will be resolved via Avahi.
+#
+# Example: MDNS_ACCEPT_NAMES=^.*\.example\.com\.$
