Overview

DNS Zone

The managed zone is the container for DNS records for the same DNS name suffix and has a set of name servers that accept and responds to queries. A project can have multiple managed zones, but they must each have a unique name.

Examples:

require "google/cloud"

gcloud = Google::Cloud.new
dns = gcloud.dns
zone = dns.zone "example-com"
zone.records.each do |record|
  puts record.name
end

Instance Method Details

#add(name, type, ttl, data, skip_soa: nil, soa_serial: nil) ⇒ Google::Cloud::Dns::Change

Adds a record to the Zone. In order to update existing records, or add and delete records in the same transaction, use #update.

This operation automatically updates the SOA record serial number unless prevented with the skip_soa option. See #update for details.

Examples:

require "google/cloud"

gcloud = Google::Cloud.new
dns = gcloud.dns
zone = dns.zone "example-com"
change = zone.add "example.com.", "A", 86400, ["1.2.3.4"]

Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    The owner of the record. For example: example.com..

  • type (String) —

    The identifier of a supported record type. For example: A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, or TXT.

  • ttl (Integer) —

    The number of seconds that the record can be cached by resolvers.

  • data (String, Array<String>) —

    The resource record data, as determined by type and defined in RFC 1035 (section 5) and RFC 1034 (section 3.6.1). For example: 192.0.2.1 or example.com..

  • skip_soa (Boolean) —

    Do not automatically update the SOA record serial number. See #update for details.

  • soa_serial (Integer+, lambda, Proc) —

    A value (or a lambda or Proc returning a value) for the new SOA record serial number. See #update for details.

#import(path_or_io, only: nil, except: nil, skip_soa: nil, soa_serial: nil) ⇒ Google::Cloud::Dns::Change

Imports resource records from a DNS zone file, adding the new records to the zone, without removing any existing records from the zone.

Because the Google Cloud DNS API only accepts a single resource record for each name and type combination (with multiple data elements), the zone file's records are merged as necessary. During this merge, the lowest ttl of the merged records is used. If none of the merged records have a ttl value, the zone file's global TTL is used for the record.

The zone file's SOA and NS records are not imported, because the zone was given SOA and NS records when it was created. These generated records point to Cloud DNS name servers.

This operation automatically updates the SOA record serial number unless prevented with the skip_soa option. See #update for details.

The Google Cloud DNS service requires that record names and data use fully-qualified addresses. The @ symbol is not accepted, nor are unqualified subdomain addresses like www. If your zone file contains such values, you may need to pre-process it in order for the import operation to succeed.

Examples:

require "google/cloud"

gcloud = Google::Cloud.new
dns = gcloud.dns
zone = dns.zone "example-com"
change = zone.import "path/to/db.example.com"

Parameters:

  • path_or_io (String, IO) —

    The path to a zone file on the filesystem, or an IO instance from which zone file data can be read.

  • only (String, Array<String>) —

    Include only records of this type or types.

  • except (String, Array<String>) —

    Exclude records of this type or types.

  • skip_soa (Boolean) —

    Do not automatically update the SOA record serial number. See #update for details.

  • soa_serial (Integer, lambda, Proc) —

    A value (or a lambda or Proc returning a value) for the new SOA record serial number. See #update for details.

Examples:

require "google/cloud"

gcloud = Google::Cloud.new
dns = gcloud.dns
zone = dns.zone "example-com"
change = zone.modify "example.com.", "MX" do |mx|
  mx.ttl = 3600 # change only the TTL
end

Parameters:

  • name (String) —

    The owner of the record. For example: example.com..

This operation automatically updates the SOA record serial number unless prevented with the skip_soa option. See #update for details.

Examples:

require "google/cloud"

gcloud = Google::Cloud.new
dns = gcloud.dns
zone = dns.zone "example-com"
change = zone.replace "example.com.", "A", 86400, ["5.6.7.8"]

Parameters:

  • name (String) —

end

#update(additions = [], deletions = [], skip_soa: nil, soa_serial: nil) {|tx| ... } ⇒ Google::Cloud::Dns::Change

Adds and removes Records from the zone. All changes are made in a single API request.

The best way to add, remove, and update multiple records in a single transaction is with a block. See Transaction.

If the SOA record for the zone is not present in additions or deletions (and if present in one, it should be present in the other), it will be added to both, and its serial number will be incremented by adding 1. This update to the SOA record can be prevented with the skip_soa option. To provide your own value or behavior for the new serial number, use the soa_serial option.

Examples:

Using a block:

require "google/cloud"

gcloud = Google::Cloud.new
dns = gcloud.dns
zone = dns.zone "example-com"
change = zone.update do |tx|
  tx.add     "example.com.", "A",  86400, "1.2.3.4"
  tx.remove  "example.com.", "TXT"
  tx.replace "example.com.", "MX", 86400, ["10 mail1.example.com.",
                                           "20 mail2.example.com."]
  tx.modify "www.example.com.", "CNAME" do |cname|
    cname.ttl = 86400 # only change the TTL
  end
end

Or you can provide the record objects to add and remove:

require "google/cloud"

gcloud = Google::Cloud.new
dns = gcloud.dns
zone = dns.zone "example-com"
new_record = zone.record "example.com.", "A", 86400, ["1.2.3.4"]
old_record = zone.record "example.com.", "A", 18600, ["1.2.3.4"]
change = zone.update [new_record], [old_record]

Using a lambda or Proc to update current SOA serial number:

require "google/cloud"

gcloud = Google::Cloud.new
dns = gcloud.dns
zone = dns.zone "example-com"
new_record = zone.record "example.com.", "A", 86400, ["1.2.3.4"]
change = zone.update new_record, soa_serial: lambda { |sn| sn + 10 }

Parameters:

  • additions (Record, Array<Record>) (defaults to: []) —

    The Record or array of records to add.

  • deletions (Record, Array<Record>) (defaults to: []) —

    The Record or array of records to remove.

  • skip_soa (Boolean) —

    Do not automatically update the SOA record serial number.

  • soa_serial (Integer, lambda, Proc) —

    A value (or a lambda or Proc returning a value) for the new SOA record serial number.

Yields:

  • (tx) —

    a block yielding a new transaction
