Configuration

providers:
  dyn:
    class: octodns_dyn.DynProvider
    # Your dynect customer name (required)
    customer: env/DYN_CUSTOMER
    # Your dynect username (required)
    username: env/DYN_USERNAME
    # Your dynect password (required)
    password: env/DYN_PASSWORD
    # Whether or not to support TrafficDirectors and enable GeoDNS
    # (optional, default is false)
    #traffic_directors_enabled: true

Note: due to the way dyn.tm.session.DynectSession is managing things we can only really have a single DynProvider configured. When you create a DynectSession it's stored in a thread-local singleton. You don't invoke methods on this session or a client that holds on to it. The client libraries grab their per-thread session by accessing the singleton through DynectSession.get_session(). That fundamentally doesn't support having more than one account active at a time. See DynProvider._check_dyn_sess for some related bits.

Support Information

Records

All octoDNS record types are supported.

Dynamic

DynProvider does not support dynamic records.

Development

See the /script/ directory for some tools to help with the development process. They generally follow the Script to rule them all pattern. Most useful is ./script/bootstrap which will create a venv and install both the runtime and development related requirements. It will also hook up a pre-commit hook that covers most of what's run by CI.
