Make DNSEndpoint CRD GA

Open snorwin opened this issue 3 years ago • 15 comments

The DNSEndpoint specified in a custom resource is very powerful and allows ExternalDNS to be used in many different ways (e.g. custom CNAME for OpenShift routes, managing A records of nodes in a Open Cluster Management context, setting a TXT records for a ACME DNS challenge). It would be really awesome to have this feature GA.

This issue is meant to track the missing features for the CRD to become GA.

The status of the DNSEndpoint should be improved by at least adding the error message and maybe some provider related status information (e.g. reference for InfoBlox, ...).

@snorwin fully agree that we should improve the DNSEndpoint status reporting. What status fields/logs/events/conditions did you have in mind?

From my understanding we should at least see in the status of the DNSEndpoint CR whether the RR was synced to the provider or not.

jstudler avatar Apr 06 '24 08:04 jstudler

@jstudler as you mentioned, most important is to know if the DNSEndpoint was synced to the provider and the error message in case an error occurred. The information whether a DNSEndpoint is skipped or does not match the regex filters of the DNS zone or is currently not tracked by the operator (e.g. missing owner TXT record) could also be of interest.

I could also imagine that provider-specific metadata (e.g., for tracking references and ID) as a map[string]string in the status could simplify certain provider implementations.
