r53

r53.py is a simple command-line utility to help you manage your AWS Route 53 DNS records. It interfaces with AWS via boto: http://code.google.com/p/boto/. It supports a workflow where a canonical zone file is managed via version control and pushed to AWS.

This is different, but complementary to, https://github.com/barnybug/cli53. We recommend these tools be used in concert. This tool was developed at foursquare.com, where we use it to manage our DNS. It is offered under the MIT license.

Installation:

Super easy!

pip install r53

Features:

• Maintains your own canonical version of your DNS configs under source control.
• Calculates the minimal changeset required to accomplish a DNS change.
• Enforces Route 53 API constraints (see http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/Route53/latest/APIReference/)

Requirements:

• Python
