PowerDNS Updater
================
This is a toolkit for creating, updating and maintaining PowerDNS 3.2+
local_tool
----------
Launch by: `user@host ~$ python local_tool.py /path/to/database.sqlite`
The local tool is a small CLI that interacts with the backend.
It consists of a few short "commands" that executes backend functions.
And these are the following commands:
* add [domain|record]
* modify
* replace
With these short commands you'll the the options to add a record or domain,
modify a existing record via name specification or replace old ip's with new ones.
backend
-------
The backend is mainly a wrapper for traditional SQL statements.
This will be a shared module that any script or tool can import
and execute simple tasks on the PowerDNS SQL database structure,
such as:
* Creating a brand new database
* Adding domains
* Adding record
* Modifying records based on type and name
* Renew all IP records with a new IP (`replace(old_ip, new_ip)`)
More "features" will come, mainly for DNSSEC but for now these are
the tasks that are simplified by having taken the manual tasks and
replaced them with functions within the `SQL()` class.
The Backend also relies on `sql_createdb.py-sqlite` for syntax.
Since sqlite3 in Python doesn't handle multiple queries well enough
in one execution the SQL statements are divided by `%%` between each
statement and within the backend.py it just takes `data.split('%%')`
and executes one query at a time.
