NAME

WebService::Linode::DNS - Deprecated Perl Interface to the Linode.com API DNS methods.

SYNOPSIS

THIS MODULE IS DEPRECATED, DON'T USE IT, USE WebService::Linode

This module provides a simple OOish interface to the Linode.com API.

Example usage:

        use WebService::Linode::DNS;

        my $api = WebService::Linode::DNS->new(apikey => 'mmmcake');
        for my $domain (@{$api->domainList}) {
                print $domain->{domainid}, "\n";
        }

METHODS

new

All methods take the same parameters as the Linode API itself does. Field names should be lower cased. All caps fields from the Linode API will be lower cased before returning the data.

Accepts a hash as an argument. apikey is the only required parameter specifying your Linode API key.

Errors mirror the perl DBI error handling method. $WebService::Linode::DNS::err and ::errstr will be populated with the last error number and string that occurred. All errors generated within the module are currently error code -1. By default, will warn on errors as well, pass a true value for fatal to die instead or nowarn to prevent the warnings.

verbose is 0-10 with 10 being the most and 0 being none

nocache disables some cacheing of domainname -> domainid

domainList

Returns a reference to an array. The array contains one entry per domain containing a reference to a hash with the data for that domain. Keys in the hash use the same names returned by the Linode API though the names have been converted to lower-case.

domainSave

domainGet

Requires domainid or domain passed in as args. 'domain' is the name of the zone and will be mapped to domainid before executing the API method. Returns a reference to a hash. The hash contains the data for the domain returned by the Linode API with the keys lower cased.

getDomainIDbyName

Returns the ID for a domain given the name.

domainCreate

Requires domainid, use 0 to create a domain.

domainUpdate

Requires domainid, grabs current data, overwrites passed values then calls domainSave for you.

domainDelete

Requires domainid, deletes the domain

domainResourceCreate

domainResourceList

Requires domainid or domain passed in as args. 'domain' is the name of the zone and will be mapped to domainid before executing the API method. Returns a reference to an array. The array contains one entry per domain containing a reference to a hash with the data for that domain. Keys in the hash use the same names returned by the Linode API though the names have been converted to lower-case.

domainResourceGet

Requires domainid and resourceid. Returns a reference to a hash. The hash contains the data for the resource record returned by the Linode API with the keys lower cased.

getResourceIDbyName

Takes a record name and domainid or domain and returns the resourceid

domainResourceSave

Requires domainid and resourceid. Use 0 for resourceid to create.

domainResourceUpdate

Requires resourceid, grabs current data, overwrites passed values then calls domainResourceSave for you.

domainResourceDelete

Requires resourceid, deletes the resource record.
