Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hickory-dns/hickory-dns/issues/1046

How to build DNS clients with customized underlying connections, for example, send DNS queries via proxies.

Could you provide some examples or guides? I found very confusing about about the relations of those structs and traits.

@bluejekyll commented on GitHub (Mar 27, 2020):

We could definitely use more examples in the project. For client only things, this is probably the best bet:

https://github.com/bluejekyll/trust-dns/blob/master/tests/integration-tests/tests/client_tests.rs#L71-L79

That has a mocked connection, the implementation of that is here:

https://github.com/bluejekyll/trust-dns/blob/master/tests/integration-tests/tests/client_tests.rs#L40-L67

I think that would be the simplest blueprint for implementing something custom.
