dnscontrol/documentation/providers/cscglobal.md

DNSControl's CSC Global provider supports being a Registrar. Support for being a DNS Provider is not included, although CSC Global's API does provide for this so it could be implemented in the future.

{% hint style="info" %} NOTE: Experimental support for being a DNS Provider is available. However it is not recommended as updates take 5-7 minutes, and the next update is not permitted until the previous update is complete. Use it at your own risk. Consider it experimental and undocumented. {% endhint %}

Configuration

To use this provider, add an entry to creds.json with TYPE set to CSCGLOBAL.

In your creds.json file, you must provide your API key and user/client token. You can optionally provide an comma separated list of email addresses to have CSC Global send updates to.

Example:

{% code title="creds.json" %}

{
  "cscglobal": {
    "TYPE": "CSCGLOBAL",
    "api-key": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
    "user-token": "yyyyyyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyyyyyyyyyy",
    "notification_emails": "test@example.tld,hostmaster@example.tld"
  }
}

{% endcode %}

Usage

An example configuration:

{% code title="dnsconfig.js" %}

var REG_CSCGLOBAL = NewRegistrar("cscglobal");
var DSP_BIND = NewDnsProvider("bind");

D("example.tld", REG_CSCGLOBAL, DnsProvider(DSP_BIND),
  A("test", "1.2.3.4")
);

{% endcode %}
