💖 put-dns — it's giving DNS record, bestie 💖

okay so real talk, put-dns is that girl. she puts a DNS record onto an external DNS provider. that's it, that's the whole vibe. manual name is put-dns, section 1 (general commands), and she's serving 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

put-dns [-v] [-n] “DNS entry”

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

put-dns uses the Provider defined in put-dns.conf to create a DNS entry. like, the config file says who's doing the work, and put-dns is like "bet, say less" and hands it over. 🫶

🦋 DNS entry 🦋

so the DNS entry is in RFC1034 format. that means it should be shaped like owner type class RDATA — in that order, no skipping — and you pass the whole thing as a single argument to put-dns. one argument, bestie. one. don't split it up, don't be chaotic. 🌈

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -v — be verbose. she'll say what DNS entry will be sent to which provider. it's giving "narrating her own life", and honestly? we love that. 🗣️
  • -n — no action. do not actually invoke the provider to add the entry. it's a dry run, a lil dress rehearsal, a vibe check before you commit. no cap. 💀

⭐ EXAMPLES ⭐

put-dns "mail.example.com IN A 10.9.8.7"

this creates a DNS Address record for mail.example com, pointing to the IP address 10.9.8.7. iconic. she ate. 👑
