Just to say, the
/etc/resolv.conf
trick doesn't work on systems with systemd-resolver (eg. Ubuntu 18), or on systems such as a Mac (Mojave or later).On Ubuntu, you may be able to do something like:
systemd-resolve --status | awk '/DNS Servers:/ { print $3 }'
I haven't tried, but on other systems,
resolvectl status
may also give similar information that you may be able to use.
