CoreDNS as a DNS provider about external-dns HOT 10 CLOSED

Hi,

I am very interested in this feature. But need some documentation to use CoreDNS ...

from external-dns.

I've written a terraform provider for coredns which might inspire someone to add this feature here.
https://github.com/shelmangroup/terraform-coredns

When we have NodePort support I might give it a go.

Yes this is something we have in our future plans https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/external-dns/blob/master/docs/initial-design.md

But we will probably focus on integrating with AWS and Google first and based on that we will evaluate the ways to integrate CoreDNS as a possible DNS provider

Thanks for the quick reply! Exposing dns data to coredns is as simple as writing info to etcd, so I hope it's not a big challenge.

CoreDNS already supports ingesting Kubernetes resources via one of its middlewares (https://github.com/coredns/coredns/tree/master/middleware/kubernetes) and exposes DNS records the way KubeDNS uses to.

I was wondering if ExternalDNS like features can be implemented as a CoreDNS middleware. It basically just has to understand ExternalDNS's annotation semantics and expose DNS records accordingly.

I took an opportunity to write CoreDNS provider, which also happens to be SkyDNS provider.
Here is my PR: #246

Probably the same can be achieved by writing new CoreDNS middleware rather than external-dns provider, but I do believe that duplicating external-dns functionality elsewhere is not a step in the right direction.

btw. #246 was replaced by #253

from external-dns.

#253 seems to have stalled.

@calder @istalker2 anybody interested in picking up the PR (#253)?
