Explain the problem

This issue is for tracking the current state of DNS Providers in the os-caddy plugin.

If you have issues, need to have a DNS Provider added, or have questions, please post that in this issue, don't create a seperate issue. Please note that I don't have accounts to test any of these providers. Following the link to their current maintainer will be a good starting point.

Since the DNS Providers in caddy are a community maintained effort, it is likely that plugins become unmaintained, forgotten, or dysfunct over time. To mitigate the risk of the build of caddy-custom failing, and to make sure there aren't any exploits in the code, a retention policy is enforced.

Policy:

The less DNS providers, the better for the build to make it less bloated. Though there is no other choice, so yeah...~ Adding maintained providers is ok.

🟥 A DNS provider plugin will be removed and not be added if:

• they're unmaintained for too long (like 2-3 years of no updates)
• they make the build of caddy-custom fail
• users report errors with the functionality, and they won't be fixed
• the maintainers ignore issues or pull requests on their provider module

🟩 A DNS Provider plugin will be added if:

• it's explicitely requested
• it doesn't make the current caddy-custom build fail
• it is in the caddy-dns repository and doesn't look unmaintained

Compare this list to: https://github.com/caddy-dns

Colors explained: 🟩 - Will stay in build 🟨 - Will stay in build unless errors, though marked for deprecation if no updates are provided 🟥 - Will be removed from build in next plugin version.

How does the workflow look like to ensure a new DNS Provider plays nice with the rest?

• The DNS Provider should be 🟩
• OPNsense Tools have to be used and a full build of the current state of the ports has to be made. https://github.com/opnsense/tools
• Afterwards, the make.conf has to be populated with the new DNS Provider and their commit hash, compare: https://github.com/opnsense/tools/blob/dbb78c3da78eede81fc26f557f8daefbd42289e5/config/24.1/make.conf#L97
• A new build has to be triggered, building just caddy-custom with make ports-caddy-custom
• If the build is successful, then the DNS Provider can be added to the plugin.
• I already added all DNS Providers in this branch, so its just copy pasting to support them in the plugin: https://github.com/Monviech/opnsense-plugins/tree/more-dnsproviders-stached

I would love to have netcup compiled. :)

[Monviech]

@dMopp Wanne try and add it? I documented what needs to be done. If you get stuck I can help.

[Monviech]

I have compiled Netcup in since it was a bit more complicated, I had to issue an upstream PR too. But now, only the Plugin GUI is left, which is just some copy pasting.

[dMopp]

I would really like to help, but to be honest i dont know where to start right now :O

[Monviech]

It's okay, I will add it next week. It'll be in the next plugin version.

Hello, Thanks for the work. Could it be possible to have Infomaniak added ?

[Monviech]

@un73l I'll evaluate it and if the build checks out I will add it.

[Monviech]

@un73l Infomaniak and a few more will probably be in next version, build checks out.
