# wildcard DNS in localhost development
|
|
- install [dnsmasq](http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/doc.html)
|
|
```
|
|
$ brew install dnsmasq
|
|
...
|
|
$ cp /usr/local/opt/dnsmasq/dnsmasq.conf.example /usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf
|
|
```
|
|
- edit `/usr/local/etc/dnsmasq.conf`
|
|
```
|
|
address=/dev/127.0.0.1
|
|
```
|
|
- start **dnsmasq**
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo brew services start dnsmasq
|
|
```
|
|
- any time we change `dnsmasq.conf` we have to re-start **dnsmasq**:
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo launchctl stop homebrew.mxcl.dnsmasq
|
|
$ sudo launchctl start homebrew.mxcl.dnsmasq
|
|
```
|
|
- For OS X to _resolve_ requests from `*.dev` to **localhost** we need to add a _resolver_:
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo mkdir /etc/resolver
|
|
$ sudo touch /etc/resolver/dev
|
|
```
|
|
- edit `/etc/resolver/dev`
|
|
```
|
|
nameserver 127.0.0.1
|
|
```
|
|
- re-start the computer to enable the _resolver_
