=========================

A DNS record manager using DigitalOcean as backend, with its own authentication.

Best suited when you just need something that changes the DNS, but you don't want it

to have access to other APIs, for example, APIs that can cost you money.

I find this particularly useful for assigning DNS records in a DHCP lease hook.

An example hook is included as ``dnsmasq-hook`` for ``dnsmasq`` users.

Installation

------------

::

  pip install do-dns-manager

Configuration

-------------

Create `htpasswd.txt` somewhere containing lines of username and password pairs

separated by ``:``, for example:

::

  spam:password

  ham:hunter2

We will call this file ``$HTPASSWD``.

Run the DNS manager as follows:

::

  DIGITAL_OCEAN_API_KEY='(api key)' do-dns-manager --domain=example.com --keyfile=$HTPASSWD --port=8888 --address=127.0.0.1

Change ``(api key)``, ``example.com``, ``$HTPASSWD``, ``8888`` and ``127.0.0.1``

to fit your situation.

We will use ``curl`` examples:

::

  # Add A record for spam.example.com

  curl -u 'spam:password' http://127.0.0.1:8888 -d @- <
