DNS Endpoint YAML or interactive-mode invocations.

[ecv]

As a user, I'd like to be able to configure my Datum DNS Zone record sets using datumctl.

Acceptance Criteria

I can configure a datum DNS zone's record sets using datumctl, idempotently.

Envisioned, valid methods:

• pumping a YAML file into datumctl via catpipe
• argumentation to datumctl on the command line

The solution must be plaintext, shell based, and noninteractive.

Out of scope:

• Any HOWTO that demands I add a new piece of kit to my personal stack (flux, terraform)
• Supporting Terraform and Flux. They're cool, but they're outside the scope of this ER.
• Issue for IaC Operator solution is https://github.com/datum-cloud/infra/issues/1444

I will look into it (@ecv can't see the infra repo)

I am not an expert here but we have a datumctl command that can be used to explain how to create a particular resource:

datumctl explain dnszone --recursive

It tells you the various fields available, what is required what not and so on. It can be used to build the YAML you need to apply (via datumctl apply -f <file.yaml> or datumctl create -f <./file.yaml>).

---

Another trick but it requires at least one dnszone available to copy from is to use the command datumctl get dnszone <dnszone_available> -o yaml > dnszone.yaml

This will give you a yaml that you can edit according to your needs. I tried but I do not have a dnszone available yet.
If that's not enough I will keep digging
