dynect4r is a Ruby library and command line client for the Dynect REST API (version 2).

gem install dynect4r

require 'dynect4r'
client = Dynect::Client.new(:customer_name => 'example',
                            :user_name => 'example',
                            :password => 'example')
response = client.rest_call(:get, 'Zone/example.org')
pp response

1. Create a file called dynect4r.secret containing your Dynect customer name, username and password (i.e. on one line separated by whitespace). Note that this file is assumed to be in the current directory by default.

2. See examples below:

dynect4r-client [options] [rdata][, ...]

• Multiple sets of rdata can be specified by separating them with commas.

• Records can be deleted by not specifying rdata.

dynect4r-client -n test.example.org 1.1.1.1

dynect4r-client -n test.example.org 1.1.1.1,2.2.2.2,3.3.3.3

dynect4r-client -n test.example.org -t CNAME test.example.org.

dynect4r-client -n srv.example.org -t SRV 0 10 20 target.example.org.

See the –help command line option:

dynect4r-client --help

Use debug logging:

dynect4r-client -v debug
