The package is the library for the API of Russian DNS registrar Ru-Center (a.k.a. NIC.RU). It provides classes for managing DNS services, zones and records.
This fork: https://github.com/andr1an/nic-api
Async version: https://github.com/shizacat/aionic
Using pip
:
pip install https://git+https://github.com/shizacat/nic-api
To start using the API, you should get a pair of OAuth application login and password from NIC.RU. Here is the registration page: https://www.nic.ru/manager/oauth.cgi?step=oauth.app_register
from nic_api import DnsApi
def print_token(token: dict):
print("Token:", token)
api = DnsApi(
client_id = "---",
client_secret = "---",
username = "---/NIC-D",
password = "---",
scope = "GET:/dns-master/.+",
token_updater=print_token
)
# First you need to get token
api.get_token()
Call the get_token()
method:
# First you need to get token
api.get_token()
Now you are ready to use the API.
If you want, you may to save token to anything (example into file) throuht
callback token_updater
and then he had used for authorize.
While the token is valie, you don't need to provide neither username or password
to access the API.
In the NIC.RU, DNS zones are located in "services":
api.services()
Usually there is one service per account. Let's view available zones in the
service MY_SERVICE
:
api.zones('MY_SERVICE')
Always check if the zone has any uncommitted changes to it before making any modifications - your commit will apply other changes too!
For viewing or modifying records, you need to specify both service and DNS zone name:
api.records('MY_SERIVCE', 'example.com')
To add a record, create an instance of one of the nic_api.models.DNSRecord
subclasses, i.e. ARecord
:
from nic_api.models import ARecord
record_www = ARecord(name='www', a='8.8.8.8', ttl=3600)
Add this record to the zone and commit the changes:
api.add_record(record_www, 'MY_SERVICE', 'example.com')
api.commit('MY_SERVICE', 'example.com')
Every record in the zone has an unique ID, and it's accessible via
DNSRecord.id
property. When you got the ID, pass it to the
delete_record
method:
api.delete_record(100000, 'MY_SERVICE', 'example.com')
api.commit('MY_SERVICE', 'example.com')
Do not forget to always commit the changes!
