VERSION
This document describes version 0.002 of spanel-build-bind-zones-from-powerdns-db (from Perl distribution App-Spanel-BuildBindZonesFromPowerDNSDB), released on 2019-08-29.
SYNOPSIS
Usage:
% spanel-build-bind-zones-from-powerdns-db [options]DESCRIPTION
This script will export domains in your PowerDNS database as BIND zones then write them to the current directory with names <servername>/db.<domainname> (so example.com from server123 will be written to ./server123/db.example.com).
Will not override existing files unless --overwrite (-O) is specified.
You can select domains to export using include-domain option.

Whether to overwrite existing output files.

Logging options

-
Shortcut for --log-level=debug.
- --log-level=s
-
Set log level.
- --quiet
-
Shortcut for --log-level=error.
- --trace
-
Shortcut for --log-level=trace.
- --verbose
-
Shortcut for --log-level=info.
Output options
- --format=s
-
Choose output format, e.g. json, text.
Default value:
undef - --json
-
Set output format to json.
- --naked-res
-
When outputing as JSON, strip result envelope.
Default value:
0By default, when outputing as JSON, the full enveloped result is returned, e.g.:
[200,"OK",[1,2,3],{"func.extra"=>4}]The reason is so you can get the status (1st element), status message (2nd element) as well as result metadata/extra result (4th element) instead of just the result (3rd element). However, sometimes you want just the result, e.g. when you want to pipe the result for more post-processing. In this case you can use `--naked-res` so you just get:
[1,2,3]
Workaround options
- --no-workaround-cname-and-other-data
-
This is a workaround for a common misconfiguration in PowerDNS DB. Bind will reject the whole zone if there is CNAME record for a name (e.g. 'www') as well as other record types (e.g. 'A' or 'TXT'). The workaround is to skip those A/TXT records and only keep the CNAME record.
- --no-workaround-no-ns
-
This is a workaround for a common misconfiguration in PowerDNS DB. This will add some NS records specified in `default_ns`.
- --no-workaround-root-cname
-
CNAME on a root node (host='') does not make sense, so the workaround is to ignore the root CNAME.
