# Simple DNS for Engine Yard AppCloud environments

<img src="https://img.skitch.com/20110523-x5mhutfr8r79parhuq7r44sqma.png">


Currently creates A records for a domain (.myapp.com and www.myapp.com) to
point to the public IP of an AppCloud environment.

## Usage

Setup `ey` and `dnsimple` gems and credentials (see below).

    $ ey-dnsimple assign myapp.com
    Assigning myapp.com --> 1.2.3.4 (drnic/myapp_production)
    Assigning www.myapp.com --> 1.2.3.4 (drnic/myapp_production)

    Found 2 records for myapp.com
    	.myapp.com (A)-> 1.2.3.4 (ttl:, id:12345)
    	www.myapp.com (A)-> 1.2.3.4 (ttl:, id:12346)

If an AppCloud environment cannot be automatically detected, explicitly pass -e or -a flags
like the `ey` CLI itself:

    $ ey-dnsimple assign myapp.com -e myapp_production

If .myapp.com or www.myapp.com already exist you will be prompted to override them.
You can force the override with the `--override` or `-o` flag.

## Setup

    $ gem install engineyard-dnsimple

This will install the `engineyard` and `dnsimple-ruby` gems as well.

To setup credentials for AppCloud, run the following command for the first time and
you will be prompted for credentials:

    $ ey environments --all

To setup credentials for DNSimple, create a file `~/.dnsimple` to look like:

    username: DNSIMPLE_USERNAME
    password: DNSIMPLE_PASSWORD

On Unix, make this file readable to you only:

    $ chmod 600 ~/.dnsimple

Test you have DNSimple working:

    $ dnsimple list
    Found 1 domains:
    	myapp.com

## Development

[![Build Status](http://travis-ci.org/engineyard/engineyard-dnsimple.png)](http://travis-ci.org/engineyard/engineyard-dnsimple)

The test suite is purely cucumber scenarios. No rspec tests are being used. There are credentials for http://test.dnsimple.com built into the test suite. You should not have to do anything to run the tests except:

    git clone git://github.com/engineyard/engineyard-dnsimple.git
    cd engineyard-dnsimple
    bundle
    bundle exec rake
