This is the provider for [Namecheap](https://www.namecheap.com/).
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
To use this provider, add an entry to `creds.json` with `TYPE` set to `NAMECHEAP`
|
|
along with your Namecheap API username and key:
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
{% code title="creds.json" %}
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"namecheap": {
|
|
"TYPE": "NAMECHEAP",
|
|
"apikey": "yourApiKeyFromNameCheap",
|
|
"apiuser": "yourUsername"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% endcode %}
|
|
|
|
You can optionally specify BaseURL to use a different endpoint - typically the
|
|
sandbox:
|
|
|
|
{% code title="creds.json" %}
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"namecheapSandbox": {
|
|
"TYPE": "NAMECHEAP",
|
|
"apikey": "yourApiKeyFromNameCheap",
|
|
"apiuser": "yourUsername",
|
|
"BaseURL": "https://api.sandbox.namecheap.com/xml.response"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
{% endcode %}
|
|
|
|
if BaseURL is omitted, the production namecheap URL is assumed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Metadata
|
|
This provider does not recognize any special metadata fields unique to
|
|
Namecheap.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
An example configuration:
|
|
|
|
{% code title="dnsconfig.js" %}
|
|
```javascript
|
|
var REG_NAMECHEAP = NewRegistrar("namecheap");
|
|
var DSP_BIND = NewDnsProvider("bind");
|
|
|
|
D("example.com", REG_NAMECHEAP, DnsProvider(DSP_BIND),
|
|
A("test", "1.2.3.4")
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
{% endcode %}
|
|
|
|
Namecheap provides custom redirect records URL, URL301, and FRAME. These
|
|
records can be used like any other record:
|
|
|
|
{% code title="dnsconfig.js" %}
|
|
```javascript
|
|
var REG_NAMECHEAP = NewRegistrar("namecheap");
|
|
var DSP_NAMECHEAP = NewDnsProvider("namecheap");
|
|
|
|
D("example.com", REG_NAMECHEAP, DnsProvider(DSP_NAMECHEAP),
|
|
URL("@", "http://example.com/"),
|
|
URL("www", "http://example.com/"),
|
|
URL301("backup", "http://backup.example.com/")
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
{% endcode %}
|
|
|
|
