Public and Private DNS in Route53 about octodns-route53

[ross]

Not familiar with a setup that uses a single zone for both internal and external records and octoDNS doesn't have any Route53 code specific to handling that sort of set up. We manage dozens of internal zones and dozens of external zones, but nothing that's both.

octodns/octodns#260 and octodns/octodns#190 are essentially the same thing. It's somewhat trivial to add it just looking at public hosted zones or private hosted zones. The tougher part is how to keep them in config/dump because with a very basic configuration one would overwrite the other.

I believe your earlier response: octodns/octodns#260 (comment) is probably the way to go

You would have providers configured like

  route53:
    class: octodns.provider.route53.Route53Provider
    access_key_id: env/AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
    secret_access_key: env/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

  route53_private:
    class: octodns.provider.route53.Route53Provider
    access_key_id: env/AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
    secret_access_key: env/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
    private_zones: true

Then you can use them like normal.

I have a draft PR up for the small change but need to work on coverage and hear any feedback: octodns/octodns#421

This would be somewhat of an impactful change for people who use OctoDNS for private hosted zone management already, as they would need to go add the private_zones: true to their provider.

Thanks, I use that info above to make it work. Honestly, I just need to get the data out of Route53 via octodns-dump, we're migrating to a new provider and in the future the public/private wont be over the same domain again. The dump saves me time since we have so many records.
