Thanks @sauloal for your feature request. I'll try to implement the DNS-record deletion this weekend.

Please let me know if your are missing more features, to allow me to prioritise the implementation of the (yet) missing endpoints.

I've created another request to also allow for updating a DNS.

This in a effort to run certbot from let's encrypt automatically.

In the meantime I've managed to call the API directly using your client.request.

I've just wrote a proof of concept in #37, this would allow you to delete a DNS entry by specifying all the required attributes, e.g.:

from transip import TransIP

client = TransIP(access_token="REDACTED")

domain = self.client.domains.get("example.com")
domain.dns.delete({
    "name": "www",
    "expire": 86400,
    "type": "A",
    "content": "127.0.0.1"
})

I'll also try to add the delete() method on a transip.v6.objects.DnsEntry instance tomorrow. This would allow you to delete the DNS entry from the returned object itself, e.g.:

from transip import TransIP

client = TransIP(access_token="REDACTED")

domain = self.client.domains.get("example.com")

for entry in domain.dns.list():
    entry.delete()

Just merged the feature to delete DNS records of a domain, for more information see https://github.com/roaldnefs/python-transip#remove-a-dns-entry-from-a-domain.

This feature will be in the next release, I'll try to make a new release tomorrow.
