README
Opera DNS UI
============
A tool to manage a PowerDNS authoritative server in a corporate LDAP-driven environment.
Features
--------
* Connects to PowerDNS via its JSON API.
* Allows login managed by LDAP server.
* Create zones; add, edit and delete records.
* Grant multiple users access to administer a zone.
* Lower access level that allows to view a zone and *request* changes.
* Provides its own JSON API for making changes to DNS records.
* Keeps a changelog of all DNS changes done through it.
* (Optionally) export all zones as bind-format zone files and store changes in git.
Demo
----
You can view the DNS UI in action on the [demonstration server](https://dnsui.xiven.com/).
Use one of the following sets of username / password credentials to log in:
* testuser / testuser - normal user with admin access granted to a few domains
* testadmin / testadmin - admin user
All data on this demonstration server is reset nightly at 00:00 UTC.
Compatibility
-------------
The current version is only compatible with PowerDNS 4.0.4 and higher. Previous 4.0.x versions suffer from a critical API bug related to TTL values.
As another option, you can use PowerDNS 3 with
[Opera DNS UI v0.1.3](https://github.com/operasoftware/dns-ui/releases/tag/v0.1.3), but the 0.1 version of the DNS UI will not receive any new features or non-critical fixes.
Requirements
------------
* Apache 2.2.18+ / nginx
* PHP 7.0+
* PHP intl (Internationalization Functions) extension
* PHP JSON extension
* PHP CURL extension
* PHP Multibyte String extension
* PHP LDAP extension
* PHP PDO_PGSQL extension
* PostgreSQL database
* PowerDNS authoritative server 4.0.4+
Installation
------------
1. Configure PowerDNS:
webserver=yes
webserver-address=...
webserver-allow-from=...
webserver-port=...
api=yes
api-key=...
2. Clone this repo to somewhere *outside* of your default web server document root.
3. Create a postgresql user and database.
createuser -P dnsui-user
createdb -O dnsui-user dnsui-db
4. Add the following directives to your web server configuration (eg. virtual host config):
* Apache:
DocumentRoot /path/to/dnsui/public_html
DirectoryIndex init.php
FallbackResource /init.php
AllowEncodedSlashes NoDecode
[Full Apache virtualhost example](https://github.com/operasoftware/dns-ui/wiki/Example-configuration:-apache)
* nginx:
root /path/to/dnsui/public_html;
index init.php;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ @php;
}
location @php {
rewrite ^/(.*)$ /init.php/$1 last;
}
location /init.php {
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock ;
include /etc/nginx/snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
}
[Full nginx server example](https://github.com/operasoftware/dns-ui/wiki/Example-configuration:-nginx)
5. Set up an authentication module for your virtual host (eg. authnz_ldap for Apache).
6. Copy the file `config/config-sample.ini` to `config/config.ini` and edit the settings as required.
7. Set `scripts/ldap_update.php` to run on a regular cron job.
Usage
-----
Anyone in the LDAP group defined under `admin_group_cn` in `config/config.ini` will be able to add and modify all zones.
They will also be able to grant access under "User access" for any zone to any number of users.
API
---
By going to the URL `/api/v2` with your web browser you can see documentation of the rest API, including all of the
available API methods. [See this on the demo server](https://dnsui.xiven.com/api/v2).
