Cloud DNS is a high-performance, resilient, global DNS service that provides a cost-effective way to make your applications and services available to your users. This programmable, authoritative DNS service can be used to easily publish and manage DNS records using the same infrastructure relied upon by Google.

Query object for listing zones.
callback GetZonesCallback <optional>

Callback function.
Returns:
Type Description
Promise.<GetZonesResponse>

Example
const {DNS} = require('@google-cloud/dns');
const dns = new DNS();

dns.getZones((err, zones, apiResponse) {});

//-
// If the callback is omitted, we'll return a Promise.
//-
dns.getZones().then(data => {
  const zones = data[0];
});

getZonesStream(queryopt) → {ReadableStream}

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
query GetZonesRequest <optional>

Query object for listing zones.
Returns:
Type Description
