OpenTofu/Terraform Provider ClouDNS

Requirements

• Terraform >= 1.1.x (older versions may work but are entirely untested)
• OpenTofu
• Go >= 1.22
• ClouDNS API credentials and a pre-existing DNS zone manageable by the user/sub-user associated with said credentials

Building The Provider

1. Clone the repository
2. Enter the repository directory
3. Build the provider using the Go install command:

$ go install

Adding Dependencies

This provider uses Go modules. Please see the Go documentation for the most up to date information about using Go modules.

To add a new dependency github.com/author/dependency to your OpenTofu/Terraform provider:

go get github.com/author/dependency
go mod tidy

Then commit the changes to go.mod and go.sum.

Using the provider

Ensure that you have an API user/sub-user on ClouDNS (requires a paid subscription with reseller access).

Note that using a sub-user which you delegate a specific zone to is a much safer approach and should always be your first choice

Once that is done, you must pre-create the zones you will want to manage on ClouDNS side (technically they are manageable through the API)
