if you are using batch changes (dns requests) instead of creating the recordsets directly, this is an example in python of creating the batch change (you would need to replace AData with NSData) - https://github.com/vinyldns/vinyldns-python/blob/0e49e2faf636ede752e7a8b3e8a3aa212b5b7150/tests/test_batch_change.py#L70
batch changes are a little tricky, as you need multiple
AddRecord, each with a single NSData
That was helpful! I got the add working now.. for others reference this is my code block, (DEFAULT_NAMESERVERS is a list of ns strings)..
for record in DEFAULT_NAMESERVERS:
record_list.append(NSData(record))
record_set = RecordSet(parent_zone_object.id, zone_name, RecordType.NS, 3600,records=record_list)
VINYLDNS_CLIENT.create_record_set(record_set)
actually, search function should be there (maybe not released?) - https://github.com/vinyldns/vinyldns-python/blob/0e49e2faf636ede752e7a8b3e8a3aa212b5b7150/src/vinyldns/client.py#L568
For delete recordset, you can get the record set to get the ID and then issue the delete https://github.com/vinyldns/vinyldns-python/blob/0e49e2faf636ede752e7a8b3e8a3aa212b5b7150/src/vinyldns/client.py#L505
guys? is possible to use env variables in vinyldns config ? can vinyldns handle hotreaload ( reload service if config was changed ) ? i want to make a helm chart for vinyldns ( i did find any k8s yamls for vinyldns ). i am also wondering what to use as standalone dns server. powerdns does have official docker image nor unbound, seems that bind has, but i am not sure if is ( and how ) possible to run bind9 in multiple instances
For a dns server you can try bind or Knot?
like bind,knot even powerdns are not really cloud native
The reason for specific backend implementations is for doing things beyond the standard DNS protocol. For example, Route 53 talks the Route 53 API, not DNS, to query and make updates
I haven't looked, but I am fairly certain that coredns speaks the DNS protocol
@pauljamescleary there is at least https://coredns.io/plugins/transfer/ plugin, but i am not sure about DDNS updates
also CoreDNS is not authoritative server https://coredns.io/plugins/etcd/
They have all these plugins, this one for example - https://coredns.io/plugins/auto/
seems its not implemented, thus not compatible with vinyldns
If coredns had any authoritative support, even something like gRPC as opposed to DNS, we could support it.
At least with local zone files
So running it in multiple replicas would not work
Maybe some pdns + sql backend
I am kinda shocked that coredns doesn't have authoritative support with an etcd backend, that just makes a lot of sense for them :/
The plan is to allow zone creation eventually, but there are security considerations there. The thinking is to allow zone creation for support / sys admins initially before allowing automatic / self service zone creation in the authoritative system
fingers crossed for support for OpenStack DNS, Azure DNS and eventually PDNS ( but DDNS and ZoneTransfer is just ok ) :D
