Manage Exoscale DNS with Ansible

2017-08-19 Sysadmin Ansible DNS Oss Cloud

Introduction In this post I will show you how to use Ansible to configure DNS records on Exoscale, a Swiss public cloud provider. Exoscale offers a DNS service at an affordable price, with geo replication, anycast and an API. The two modules we are going to use, exo_dns_domain and exo_dns_record, are ones I wrote, and they have shipped with Ansible since version 2.2.0. This post was written in 2017, when these modules were part of Ansible itself.

They may be generated from an application or rsynced from anywhere else. Further, I didn’t want to force people to handle zone files the one way.
