Usage

A Rackspace Cloud username and API key are required and can be obtained from https://mycloud.rackspace.com.

Domains and records can be found by specifying their name or id. To enable debugging output for the HTTP connection, include the keyword argument debuglevel=1. Additional debugging output is available by setting the ‘PYTHON_CLOUDDNS_DEBUG’ environment variable.

List all domains:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import clouddns
dns = clouddns.connection.Connection('username','apikey')

for domain in dns.get_domains():
    print domain.name

Create a new domain:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import clouddns
dns = clouddns.connection.Connection('username','apikey')

dns.create_domain(name='1234-example.com', ttl=300,
                  emailAddress='me@you.com')

Import a domain from a BIND zone file or string:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import clouddns
dns = clouddns.connection.Connection('username','apikey')

with open('/tmp/example.com.zone', 'r') as f:
    dns.import_domain(f)

Update a domain:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import clouddns
dns = clouddns.connection.Connection('username','apikey')

domain = dns.get_domain(name='1234-example.com')
domain.update(ttl=600)

Delete a domain:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import clouddns
dns = clouddns.connection.Connection('username','apikey')

domain = dns.get_domain(name='1234-example.com')
dns.delete_domain(domain.id)

List all records for a domain:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import clouddns
dns = clouddns.connection.Connection('username','apikey')

domain = dns.get_domain(name='1234-example.com')
for record in domain.get_records():
    print '(%s) %s -> %s' % (record.type, record.name, record.data)

Create new record:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import clouddns
dns = clouddns.connection.Connection('username','apikey')

domain = dns.get_domain(name='1234-example.com')
domain.create_record('www.1234-example.com', '127.0.0.1', 'A')

Update a record:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import clouddns
dns = clouddns.connection.Connection('username','apikey')

domain = dns.get_domain(name='1234-example.com')
record = domain.get_record(name='www.1234-example.com')
record.update(data='10.1.1.1', ttl=600)

Delete a record:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import clouddns
dns = clouddns.connection.Connection('username','apikey')

domain = dns.get_domain(name='1234-example.com')
record = domain.get_record(name='www.1234-example.com')
domain.delete_record(record.id)

Alternative Geographic Endpoints

The examples above use the default authentication endpoint in the US. For UK accounts, you must override the authentication URL:

#!/usr/bin/env python
import clouddns
dns = clouddns.connection.Connection('username','apikey',
                                     authurl=clouddb.consts.uk_authurl)
