PowerDNS module

Build Status

This is a module to manage PowerDNS with Puppet. The configuration is split into several files and put in /etc/powerdns/pdns.d. This makes it easy to read which configurations are currently modified.

Usage

powerdns

include powerdns

powerdns::config

Set configuration settings in a pdns.d directory (this assumes that you have include=/etc/powerdns/pdns.d in pdns.conf).

powerdns::config { 'cache-ttl':
  ensure => present,
  value  => 20,
}

Or, set IPv6 address:

powerdns::config { 'local-ipv6':
  ensure => present,
  value  => $::ipaddress6,
}

powerdns::postgresql

This will install the postgresql backend for powerdns:

class { 'powerdns::postgresql':
  ensure   => present,
  user     => 'powerdns',
  password => 'secret',
  host     => 'localhost',
  port     => '5432',
  dbname   => 'pdns',
  dnssec   => 'no',
}

The dnssec value can be either 'yes' or 'no'. Default is 'yes'..

To be able to use it without importing data and without hassle, make sure that Postgres is installed before the powerdns::postgresql class.

powerdns::mysql

This will install the mysql backend for powerdns:

class { 'powerdns::mysql':
  ensure   => present,
  user     => 'powerdns',
  password => 'secret',
  host     => 'localhost',
  port     => '3306',
  dbname   => 'pdns',
  dnssec   => 'no',
}

The dnssec value can be either 'yes' or 'no'. Default is 'yes'.

gem install bundler
bundle install
