Chrome API to manipulate dns entries?

Was going through the Chrome documentation and there is a reference to chrome.dns API. (https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/declare_permissions#dns) However, there is no documentation to support it.

Does anyone know if this is available on Chrome? Goal is to create an extension that allows the user to add local host entries liek for example:

www.mydomain.com points to 127.0.0.1

Thanks

The chrome.dns or chrome.experimental.dns API was deprecated, though it only allowed to to resolve a hostname, not setup a local hosts file.

You should be able to do what you want using onBeforeRequest, though. See this other question: How can i modify the host header.
