Configuration

Route53 Provider

providers:
  route53:
    class: octodns_route53.Route53Provider
    # The AWS access key id
    access_key_id: env/AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
    # The AWS secret access key
    secret_access_key: env/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
    # The AWS session token (optional)
    # Only needed if using temporary security credentials
    #session_token: env/AWS_SESSION_TOKEN

Alternatively, you may leave out access_key_id, secret_access_key and session_token. This will result in boto3 deciding authentication dynamically.

In general the account used will need full permissions on Route53.

Ec2Souce

providers:
  ec2:
    class: octodns_route53.Ec2Source
    # auth options are the same as Route53Provider
    access_key_id: env/AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
    secret_access_key: env/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
    # The region in which to look for EC2 instances, required.
    region: us-east-1
    # Prefix for tag keys containing fqdn(s)
    #tag_prefix: octodns
    # String to append to all names and tag values
    #append_to_names: mydomain.com.
    #ttl: 3600

In general the account used will need read permissions on EC2 instances.

Records are driven off of the tags attached to the EC2 instances. The "Name" tag and any tags starting with tag_prefix are considered.

The value of the tag should be one or more fqdns separated by a / character. You can append a string to the name and all tag values with append_to_names.

When a zone is being populated any fqdns matching the zone name will result in records. When the instance has a private IPv4 address an A record will be created. When the instance has an IPv6 address a AAAA record will be created.

When the zone is a sub-zone of in-addr.arpa. PTR records will be created for private IPv4 addresses that match the zone. The value(s) will be the fqdn(s) associated with that private IPv4 address.

When the zone is a sub-zone of ip6.arpa. PTR records will be created for IPv6 addresses that match the zone. The value(s) will be the fqdn(s) associated with that IPv6 address.

ElbSouce

providers:
  elb:
    class: octodns_route53.ElbSource
    # auth options are the same as Route53Provider
    access_key_id: env/AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
    secret_access_key: env/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
    # The region in which to look for ELB instances, required.
    region: us-east-1
    # Prefix for tag keys containing fqdn(s)
    #tag_prefix: octodns
    # String to append to all names and tag values
    #append_to_names: mydomain.com.
    #ttl: 3600

In general the account used will need read permissions on ELB instances and tags.

Records are driven off of the ELB name and the tags attached to the ELB instances. Any tag with tag_prefix is considered.

The value of the tag should be one or more fqdns separated by a / character. You can append a string to the name and all tag values with append_to_names.

When a zone is being populated any fqdns matching the zone name will result in records CNAME records with the target value being the DNSName of the ELB instance.

Example Tags for EC2/ELB

# This will result in an ALIAS record for example.com. -> DNSName
octodns: example.com.

# This will result in a CNAME record for foo.example.com. -> DNSName
octodns: foo.example.com.

# This will result in CNAME records for foo.example.com. and bar.other.com.
# -> DNSName
octodns: foo.example.com./bar.other.com.

# Tags are limited to 255 characters so in order to support long and/or
# numerous fqdns tags prefixed with `tag_prefix` are considered. It is also
# acceptable to add multiple tags rather than separating things with `/`
octodns-1: foo.example.com.
octodns-2: bar.other.com.

# "symlink" to another record in the same zone
alias:
    type: Route53Provider/ALIAS
    values:
    # ALIAS for the zone APEX A record
    - type: A
    # ALIAS for www.whatever.com. AAAA
    - evaluate-target-health: false
      # same-zone aliases omit the zone name
      name: www
      type: AAAA
# "symlink" to a AWS service
alb:
    type: Route53Provider/ALIAS
    value:
        # default for evaluate-target-health is False
        evaluate-target-health: true
        # hosted-zone-id should only be used when pointing to service endpoints
        hosted-zone-id: Z42SXDOTRQ7X7K
        name: dualstack.octodns-testing-1165866977.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com.
        type: A

Health Check Options

See https://github.com/octodns/octodns/blob/master/docs/dynamic_records.md#health-checks for information on health checking for dynamic records. Route53Provider supports the following options:

Key Description Default
failure_threshold Failure threshold before state change, 1-10 6
measure_latency Show latency in AWS console true
request_interval Healthcheck interval [10|30] seconds 10
---
  octodns:
    healthcheck:
      host: my-host-name
      path: /dns-health-check
      port: 443
      protocol: HTTPS
    route53:
      healthcheck:
        failure_threshold: 3
        measure_latency: false
        request_interval: 30

Development

See the /script/ directory for some tools to help with the development process. They generally follow the Script to rule them all pattern. Most useful is ./script/bootstrap which will create a venv and install both the runtime and development related requirements. It will also hook up a pre-commit hook that covers most of what's run by CI.
