I'd like to setup dnsmasq as an authoritative DNS server, but can't find any good guides for it. So could somebody please post a sample configuration of dnsmasq as an authoritative DNS server (with some basic options, such as A records)? I'd also like to know the path of the configuration, just so I set it up properly.
EDIT: Some clarification on my use case:

I intend to setup an authoritative DNS server so I can have automatic renewal of Let's Encrypt certificates using the DNS-01 challenge.

What I do not understand:

I've breifly read over http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/docs/dnsmasq-man.html, but I don't understand which options are required for a basic configuration in authoritative only mode, nor how to configure the options.
