Akamai CLI for Edge DNS

Go Report Card FOSSA Status

An Akamai CLI package for managing DNS Zones using Edge DNS (formerly known as Fast DNS).

Getting Started

Installing

To install this package, use Akamai CLI:

$ akamai install dns

You may also use this as a stand-alone command by downloading the latest release binary for your system, or by cloning this repository and compiling it yourself.

Compiling from Source

If you want to compile the package from source, you will need Go 1.18 or later installed:

  1. Create a clone of the target repository: git clone https://github.com/akamai/cli-dns.git
  2. Change to the package directory and compile the binary:
  • Linux/macOS/*nix: go build -o akamai-dns
  • Windows: go build -o akamai-dns.exe

Command Summary

Usage

$  akamai dns [--edgerc] [--section] [--accountkey] <command> [sub-command]

or

$  akamai-dns [--edgerc] [--section] [--accountkey] <command> [sub-command]

Description

Manage DNS Zones with Edge DNS

Global Flags

   --edgerc value      Location of the credentials file (default: "/home/elynes/.edgerc") [$AKAMAI_EDGERC]
   --section value     Section of the credentials file (default: "dns") [$AKAMAI_EDGERC_SECTION]
   --accountkey value  Account switch key [$AKAMAI_EDGERC_ACCOUNT_KEY]

Built-In Commands

  add-record [Deprecated]
  rm-record [Deprecated]
  list-recordsets
  create-recordsets

  retrieve-recordset
  create-recordset
  update-recordset
  delete-recordset

  submit-bulkzones
  status-bulkzones
  result-bulkzones

  help

Commands are grouped into several categories.

*-zoneconfig, *-recordsets and *-recordset commands provide the ability to manage zone configurations directly, as well as manage recordsets individually or in groupings. These commands should be preferred.

*-bulkzones commands provide the ability to submit and monitor bulk zone operations.

*-zone and *-record commands provide a more constrained scope of control, treating the zone and records as a single entity. These commands provide backward compatibility with earlier releases of the package.

NOTE: The *-zone and *-record commands utilize and older version of the Edge DNS API and do not support zones with newer record types. These commands have been deprecated and will be removed from a future release.

Listing Zone Configurations

A list of existing zone configurations can be retrieved by using the akamai dns list-zoneconfig command.

The complete command line is:

   akamai dns list-zoneconfig  [--json] [--output] [--contractid] [--type] [--search] [--summary] 

Flags: 
   --json           Output as JSON [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_JSON]
   --output FILE    Output command results to FILE
   --contractid ID  Contract ID. Multiple flags allowed
   --type TYPE      Zone TYPE. Multiple flags allowed
   --search VALUE   Zone search VALUE
   --summary        List zone names and type

To list Primary zones and generate results in json format, the --type and --json flags would be used. For example:

$akamai dns list-zoneconfig --type primary --json

would result in the following output:

{
  "Zones": [
    {
      "zone": "example.com",
      "type": "PRIMARY",
      "signAndServe": false,
      "contractId": "1-ABC123",
      "activationState": "NEW",
      "lastModifiedBy": "jsmith",
      "lastModifiedDate": "2020-06-05T21:05:04.298125Z",
      "versionId": "60a1f29b-85e8-44e0-a921-2bcae8728f75"
    }
  ]
}

To generate a summary list of zones containing specific text, the --search and --summary flags would be used. For example:

$ akamai dns list-zoneconfig --search example --summary

would result in the following output:

Zone List Summary
 
                   ZONE                     TYPE     ACTIVATION STATE   CONTRACT ID  
                                                                                     
  example.com                              PRIMARY         NEW           1-3CV382    

Retrieving a Zone Configuration

An existing zone configuration can be retrieved by using the akamai dns retrieve-zoneconfig command.

The complete command line is:

   akamai dns retrieve-zoneconfig <zonename> [--json] [--output] [--dns]

Flags: 
   --json         Output as JSON [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_JSON]
   --output FILE  Output command results to FILE
   --dns          Retrieve Zone Master File

To retrieve a zoneconfig and output result in json format, the --json flag would be used. For example:

$ akamai dns retrieve-zoneconfig example.com --json

would result in the following output:

{
  "zone": "example.com",
  "type": "PRIMARY",
  "comment": "Primary zone",
  "signAndServe": false,
  "contractId": "1-ABC123",
  "activationState": "PENDING",
  "lastModifiedBy": "jsmith",
  "lastModifiedDate": "2020-06-09T18:06:01.266155Z",
  "versionId": "a0b4730e-fbbe-40ad-96b3-ac6a4cbadb1e"
} 

To retrieve the master zone file and output to the console, an example would be:

$ akamai dns retrieve-zoneconfig xxx_primary_test.com -dns
Retrieving Zone
Retrieving Zone  ... [OK]

Creating a Zone Configuration

A zone configuration can be created by using the akamai dns create-zoneconfig command. The configuration can be provided as command line values or json file.

The complete command line is:

akamai dns create-zoneconfig <zonename> [--json] [--suppress] [--output] [--type] [--master] [--comment] [--signandserve] [--algorithm] [--tsigname] [--tsigalgorithm] [--tsigsecret] [--target] [--endcustomerid] [--file] [--contractid] [--groupid] [--initialize] 

Flags: 
   --json                         Output as JSON [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_JSON]
   --suppress                     Suppress command result output. Overrides other output related flags [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_SUPPRESS]
   --output FILE                  Output command results to FILE
   --type TYPE                    Zone TYPE
   --master MASTER                Secondary Zone MASTER. Multiple flags may be specified
   --comment COMMENT              Zone COMMENT
   --signandserve SIGNANDSERVE    Primary or Secondary Zone SIGNANDSERVE flag
   --algorithm ALGORITHM          Zone signandserve ALGORITHM
   --tsigname NAME                TSIG key NAME
   --tsigalgorithm ALGORITHM      TSIG key ALGORITHM
   --tsigsecret SECRET            TSIG key SECRET
   --target TARGET                Alias Zone TARGET
   --endcustomerid ENDCUSTOMERID  ENDCUSTOMERID
   --file FILE                    Read JSON formatted input from FILE
   --contractid ID                Contract ID
   --groupid ID                   Group ID
   --initialize                   Generate default SOA and NS Records

To create a zone, the desired fields and values would be provided. For example, to create a simple primary zone with default SOA and NS records via command line:

$ akamai dns create-zoneconfig example_primary.com --type primary --contractid 1-ABC123 --initialize

would create the zone with the following output:

Zone Configuration
 
           ZONE               ATTRIBUTE                      VALUE                  
                                                                                    
  example_primary.com      Type               PRIMARY                               
                           
                           ContractId         1-ABC123
                                                                                    
                           SignAndServe       false                                 
                                                                                    
                           ActivationState    PENDING                               
                                                                                    
                           LastModifiedDate   2020-06-09T18:06:01.266155Z           
                                                                                    
                           VersionId          a0b4730e-fbbe-40ad-96b3-ac6a4cbadb1e  

To create a secondary zone with a Tsig Key and comment and but suppress output via file input, the following command would be specified:

$ akamai dns create-zoneconfig example_secondary.com --file zone_create.json --suppress

where zone_create.json contains:

{
  "zone": "example_secondary.com",
  "type": "SECONDARY",
  "comment": "secondary zone",
  "masters": [
    "10.0.1.1"
  ],
  "signAndServe": false,
  "tsigKey": {
    "name": "testtsig",
    "algorithm": "hmac-md5",
    "secret": "p/jzrJpXOLf4mPUtx/z+Sw=="
  },
  "contractId": "1-ABC123" 
}

returns no output

Updating a Zone Configuration

A zone configuration can be updated by using the akamai dns update-zoneconfig command. The updated configuration can be provided as command line values or json file. Note: Only updated fields and values need to be specified if using command line input.

The complete command line is:

akamai dns update-zoneconfig <zonename> [--json] [--suppress] [--output] [--type] [--master] [--comment] [--signandserve] [--algorithm] [--tsigname] [--tsigalgorithm] [--tsigsecret] [--target] [--endcustomerid] [--file] [--contractid] [--dns]

Flags:
   --json                         Output as JSON [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_JSON]
   --suppress                     Suppress command result output. Overrides other output related flags [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_SUPPRESS]
   --output FILE                  Output command results to FILE
   --type TYPE                    Zone TYPE
   --master MASTER                Secondary Zone MASTER. Multiple flags may be specified
   --comment COMMENT              Zone COMMENT
   --signandserve SIGNANDSERVE    Primary or Secondary Zone SIGNANDSERVE flag
   --algorithm ALGORITHM          Zone signandserve ALGORITHM
   --tsigname NAME                TSIG key NAME
   --tsigalgorithm ALGORITHM      TSIG key ALGORITHM
   --tsigsecret SECRET            TSIG key SECRET
   --target TARGET                Alias Zone TARGET
   --endcustomerid ENDCUSTOMERID  ENDCUSTOMERID
   --contractid ID                Contract ID
   --file FILE                    Read JSON formatted input from FILE
   --dns                          Input is Zone Master File

For example, to update the previously created primary zone and add a comment via the command line:

$ akamai dns update-zoneconfig example_primary.com --type primary --comment "This is a comment"

would update the zone and provide the following output:

Zone Configuration

           ZONE               ATTRIBUTE                      VALUE

  example_primary.com      Type               PRIMARY

                           Comment            This is a comment

                           ContractId         1-ABC123

                           SignAndServe       false

                           ActivationState    PENDING

                           LastModifiedDate   2020-06-09T18:06:01.266155Z

                           VersionId          a0b4730e-fbbe-40ad-96b3-ac6a4cbadb1e

To update the master zone file (previously retrieved), an example would be:

$ akamai dns update-zoneconfig xxx_primary_test.com -dns -file ./master_file
Preparing zone for update

Listing a Zone's Recordsets

The recordsets in a zone can be [selectively] listed by using the akamai dns list-recordsets command.

The complete command line is:

$ akamai dns list-recordsets <zonename> [--json] [--output] [--type] [--sortby] [--search] 

Flags: 
   --json           Output as JSON [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_JSON]
   --output FILE    Output command results to FILE
   --type TYPE      List recordset(s) matching TYPE. Multiple flags allowed
   --sortby SORTBY  List returned recordsets sorted by SORTBY
   --search SEARCH  Filter returned recordsets by SEARCH criteria

To list a zone's recordsets selectively by type, the following command line would be used:

$ akamai dns list-recordsets example.com --type soa --type ns

With the following output:

Zone Recordsets
 
              NAME                TYPE    TTL                                             RDATA

A similar example, sorting by recordset type and outputting in json format, would be the following:

$ akamai dns list-recordsets example.com --sortby type --json

and result on the following result:

{
  "Recordsets": [
    {
      "name": "a_example.com",
      "type": "A",
      "ttl": 900,
      "rdata": [
        "10.0.0.10"
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "aaaa_example.com",
      "type": "AAAA",
      "ttl": 900,
      "rdata": [
        "8001:ab8:85b3:0:0:8a1e:370:7225"
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "example.com",
      "type": "NS",
      "ttl": 86400,
      "rdata": [
        "a1-98.akam.net.",
        "a12-65.akam.net.",
        "a4-65.akam.net."
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "example.com",
      "type": "SOA",
      "ttl": 86400,
      "rdata": [

      ]
    }
  ]

Creating Multiple Zone Recordsets

The command akamai dns create-recordsets is used to create multiple recordsets in one command invocation.

The complete command line is:

$ akamai dns create-recordsets <zonename> [--json] [--suppress] [--output] [--file] 

Flags: 
   --json         Output as JSON [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_JSON]
   --suppress     Suppress command result output. Overrides other output related flags [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_SUPPRESS]
   --output FILE  Output command results to FILE
   --file FILE    FILE path to JSON formatted recordset content 

For example, the following command:

$ akamai dns create-recordsets rs_example.com --file new_recordsets.json --json

where the file file new_recordsets.json contains:

{
    "recordsets": [
        {
            "name": "example.rs_example.com",
            "type": "CNAME",
            "ttl": 1200,
            "rdata": [
                "www.example.com"
            ]
        },
       {
            "name": "a_rs_example.com",
            "type": "A",
            "ttl": 900,
            "rdata": ["10.0.0.20"]
       }
   ]
}

would result in the following output:

{
  "Recordsets": [
    {
      "name": "example.rs_example.com",
      "type": "CNAME",
      "ttl": 1200,
      "rdata": [
        "www.example.com."
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "rs_example.com",
      "type": "SOA",
      "ttl": 86400,
      "rdata": [
        "a1-98.akam.net. hostmaster.rs_example.com. 2020060513 3600 600 604800 300"
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "rs_example.com",
      "type": "NS",
      "ttl": 86400,
      "rdata": [
        "a1-98.akam.net.",
        "a12-65.akam.net.",
        "a3-64.akam.net.",
        "a4-65.akam.net."
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "a_rs_example.com",
      "type": "A",
      "ttl": 900,
      "rdata": [
        "10.0.0.20"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Updating multiple zone Recordsets

The command akamai dns update-recordsets is used to update multiple recordsets in one command invocation. Note: The default operation of the update-recordsets command is to specifically replace the recordsets in the provided file if they exist. The `overwrite' flag will REPLACE ALL existing recordsets in the zone.

The complete command line is:

$ akamai dns update-recordsets <zonename> [--json] [--suppress] [--output] [--file] 

Flags: 
   --json         Output as JSON [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_JSON]
   --suppress     Suppress command result output. Overrides other output related flags [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_SUPPRESS]
   --overwrite    Replace ALL Recordsets
   --output FILE  Output command results to FILE
   --file FILE    FILE path to JSON formatted recordset content

The following incorrect example updates the recordsets with the same file used in the previous create-recordsets example WITH the --overwrite flag.

$ akamai dns update-recordsets --file new_recordsets.json --overwrite

resulting in the following error output. [The expected result being to remove the SOA record!] :

Updating Recordsets ... [FAIL]

Recordset update failed. Error: Zone "example.com" validation failed: [SOA record set is required for zone example.com]

Retrieving a Recordset

The command akamai dns retrieve-recordset is used to retrieve a single recordset.

The complete command line is:

$ akamai dns retrieve-recordset <zonename> [--json] [--output] [--name] [--type] 

Flags: 
   --json         Output as JSON [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_JSON]
   --output FILE  Output command results to FILE
   --name NAME    Recordset NAME
   --type TYPE    Recordset TYPE

A recordset retrieval example is the following:

$ akamai dns retrieve-recordset egl_clidns_primary_test_1.com --name a_rs_example.com --type A

would result in the following output:

                     NAME                       TYPE   TTL     RDATA    
                                                                        
  a_rs_example.com                               A     900   10.0.0.20  
                                                                        
Zone: a_rs_example.com

The following example would direct output to a file:

$ akamai dns retrieve-recordset egl_clidns_primary_test_1.com --name a_rs_example.com --type A --output ./recordset_a.json

resulting in ./recordset_a.json would containing:

{
        "name": "a_rs_example.com",
        "type": "A",
        "ttl": 900,
        "rdata": ["10.0.0.20"]
}

Creating a Recordset

The command akamai dns create-recordset is used to create a single recordset. Fields and values can be provided on the command line or input file.

The complete command line is:

$ akamai dns create-recordset <zonename> [--json] [--suppress] [--output] [--name] [--type] [--ttl] [--rdata] [--file] 

Flags: 
   --json         Output as JSON [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_JSON]
   --suppress     Suppress command result output. Overrides other output related flags [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_SUPPRESS]
   --output FILE  Output command results to FILE
   --name NAME    Recordset NAME
   --type TYPE    Recordset TYPE
   --ttl TTL      Recordset TTL (default: 0)
   --rdata RDATA  Recordset RDATA. Multiple flags allowed.
   --file FILE    FILE path to JSON formatted recordset content

To create a recordset via command line, the following would be invoked:

$ akamai dns create-recordset example.com --name a_record_example.com --type A --ttl 600 --rdata 10.1.1.1 --json

and result in the following output:

{
  "name": "a_record_example.com",
  "type": "A",
  "ttl": 600,
  "rdata": [
    "10.1.1.1"
  ]
}

Updating a Recordset

The command akamai dns update-recordset is used to update a single existing recordset. Fields and values can be provided on the command line or input file.

The complete command line is:

$ akamai dns update-recordset <zonename> [--json] [--suppress] [--output] [--name] [--type] [--ttl] [--rdata] [--file] 

Flags: 
   --json         Output as JSON [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_JSON]
   --suppress     Suppress command result output. Overrides other output related flags [$AKAMAI_CLI_DNS_SUPPRESS]
   --output FILE  Output command results to FILE
   --name NAME    Recordset NAME

where the file ./a_recordset.json contains:

{
  "name": "a_record_example.com",
  "type": "A",
  "ttl": 900,
  "rdata": [
    "10.1.1.1"
  ]
}

and return no output.

Flags: 
   --name NAME    Recordset NAME
   --type TYPE    Recordset TYPE

Submit Bulk Zone Request

To submit a create or delete bulk zone operation request, use the following command:

The complete command line is:

$ akamai dns submit-bulkzones  [--json] [--output] [--suppress] [--contractid] [--groupid] [--bypasszonesafety] [--create] [--delete] [--file]

Flags:

   --delete            Bulk zone delete operation.
   --file FILE         Read JSON formatted input from FILE

NOTE: The CLI currently limits the number of zones in a submit request to 1000. If an invocation presents more than 1000 zones, the zones will be submitted in batches of 1000 and multiple Request Ids will be returned. The batch size can be changed by setting the environment variable AKAMAI_ZONES_BATCH_SIZE.

An example create submit request would be as follows:

$ akamai dns  --edgerc ~/.edgerc --section default submit-bulkzones -create -contractid 1-3CV382 -groupid 18432 -file bulkcreate.json

Retrieving a Zone

NOTE: This sub command has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

To retrieve a Zone use the retrieve-zone command:

$ akamai dns retrieve-zone example.org

To filter to specific record types use one or more --filter <TYPE> flags. For example, to show just A and AAAA records:

$ akamai dns retrieve-zone example.org --filter A --filter AAAA

You can also output the result as JSON, by adding the --json flag:

$ akamai dns retrieve-zone example.org --filter A --filter AAAA --json
{
  "token": "9218376e14c2797e0d06e8d2f918d45f",
  "zone": {
    "name": "example.com",
    "a": [
      {
        "name": "www",
        "ttl": 3600,
        "active": true,
        "target": "192.0.2.1"
      }
    ],
    "aaaa": [
      {
        "name": "www",
        "ttl": 3600,
        "active": true,
        "target": "2001:db8:0:0:0:0:0:1"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Update a Zone

NOTE: This sub command has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

Update a zone using akamai dns update-zone. This command allows you to input either a Edge DNS JSON payload, or a standard DNS zone file.

By default, this will append the records to the zone.

You can either specify a file or redirect content via STDIN:

$ akamai dns update-zone example.org -f new-records.zone.json

is identical to:

$ cat new-records.zone.json | akamai dns update-zone example.org

To use DNS zone format, specify the --dns flag:

$ akamai dns update-zone --dns -f new-records.zone

Overwriting a Zone

If you want to overwrite the existing zone entirely, add the --overwrite flag:

$ akamai dns update-zone example.org --overwrite -f example.org.zone.json

Add a New Record

To add a new DNS record use akamai dns add-record <record type>. Each setting for the record is a flag, for example to add a CNAME record:

NOTE: This sub command has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

$ akamai dns add-record CNAME example.org --name www --target example.org --ttl 3600

Remove a Record

NOTE: This sub command has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

Use akamai dns rm-record <record type> to remove one or more records matching the given flags.

$ akamai dns rm-record A example.org --name www

By default the command will ask you to verify which records to remove if more than one matches the given criteria. You can force it to remove all matching records by passing in the --force-multiple flag.

If the command is run in a non-interactive terminal, or the --non-interactive flag is passed in, without the --force-multiple flag the command will remove records if only one match is found, otherwise it will exit with status code 1.
