DESCRIPTION
===========

Automatically configures system DNS using Dyn's API.

REQUIREMENTS
============

Chef 0.8+.

A Dynect account.

The `dynect_rest` gem. The `dynect::default` recipe installs this gem from gemcutter.

Works on any platform Chef runs on that can install gems from Rubygems.org.

ATTRIBUTES
==========

The following attributes need to be set either in a role or on a node directly, they are not set at the cookbook level:

* dynect.customer - Customer ID
* dynect.username - Username
* dynect.password - Password
* dynect.zone - Zone
* dynect.domain - Domain

Example JSON:

{
"dynect": {
"customer": "CUSTOMER",
"username": "USERNAME",
"password": "PASSWORD",
"zone": "ZONE",
"domain": "DOMAIN"
}
}

EC2 specific attributes:

* dynect.ec2.type - type of system, web, db, etc. Default is 'ec2'.
* dynect.ec2.env - logical application environment the system is in. Default is 'prod'.

RESOURCES
=========

rr
--

DNS Resource Record.

Actions:

Applies to the DNS record being managed.

* `:create`
* `:replace`
* `:update`
* `:delete`

Attribute Parameters:

* `record_type` - DNS record type (CNAME, A, etc)
* `rdata` - record data, see the Dyn API documentation.
* `ttl` - time to live in seconds
* `fqdn` - fully qualified domain name
* `username` - dyn username
* `password` - dyn password
* `customer` - dyn customer id
* `zone` - DNS zone

None of the parameters have default values.

Example:

dynect_rr "webprod" do
record_type "A"
rdata({"address" => "10.1.1.10"})
fqdn "webprod.#{node.dynect.domain}"
customer node[:dynect][:customer]
username node[:dynect][:username]
password node[:dynect][:password]
zone node[:dynect][:zone]
end

RECIPES
=======

This cookbook provides the following recipes.

default
-------

The default recipe installs Adam Jacob's `dynect_rest` gem during the Chef run's compile time to ensure it is available in the same run as utilizing the `dynect_rr` resource/provider.

ec2
---

**Only use this recipe on Amazon AWS EC2 hosts!**

The `dynect::ec2` recipe provides an example of working with the Dyn API with EC2 instances. It creates CNAME records based on the EC2 instance ID (`node.ec2.instance_id`), and a constructed hostname from the dynect.ec2 attributes.

The recipe also edits resolv.conf to search compute-1.internal and the dynect.domain and use dynect.domain as the default domain, and it will set the nodes hostname per the DNS settings.

a_record
--------

The `dynect::a_record` recipe will create an `A` record for the node using the detected hostname and IP address from `ohai`.
