• Deprecation warning for Source.populate w/o the lenient param, to be removed in 2.x
• Deprecation warning for Provider.populate w/o the processors param, to be removed in 2.x
• Add YamlProvider.order_mode to allow picking between natural (human) the default when enforce_order=True and simple sort.
• Fix type-o in _build_kwargs handler notification
• Add support for configuring OwnershipProcessor TXT record's TTL
• Add Plan.meta to allow providers to indicate they need to make changes to the zone that are not record specific

v1.10.0 - 2024-10-06 - Lots of little stuff

• Zone name validation checking for double dots, and throwing InvalidNameError rather than base Exception
• Record validation checks for double dots in names
• MetaProcessor.include_extra to add support for arbitrary extra values to be set on the meta record.
• Correctly handled quoted svcparams when parsing SVCB/HTTPS rdata text
• Fix handling of chunked values (TXT, SPF) when escaped characters land at the split boundaries, don't split escapes from their following chars

v1.9.1 - 2024-06-21 - What's in a name

• Add name to Change.data, and thus PlanJson output

v1.9.0 - 2024-06-20 - Grab bag

• ICMP & UDP healthcheck protocol support added
• Improved handling of present, but empty/None config file values.
• Add PlanJson plan_output support
• Include record_type in Change data

v1.8.0 - 2024-06-10 - Set the records straight

• Add support for SVCB and HTTPS records
• Allow DS records to be specified for managed sub-zones, same as NS
• Fix CAA rdata parsing to allow values with tags

v1.7.0 - 2024-04-29 - All the knobs and dials

• Support for specifying per-zone change thresholds, to allow for zones where lots of changes are expected frequently to live along side zones where little or no churn is expected.
• AutoArpa gained support for prioritizing values
• Fix for EnsureTrailingDots reverting value types back to strings which then failed when rr methods were used on them (e.g. w/octodns-bind)

v1.6.1 - 2024-03-17 - Didn't we do this already

• Fix env var type handling that was previously fixed in 1.5.1 and then regressed in 1.6.0.

v1.6.0 - 2024-03-11 - It's a secret, if I told you I'd have to kill you

• Add EnsureTrailingDots processor
• Beta support for custom secret providers added to Manager.

v1.5.1 - 2024-03-08 - env/* type conversion fix

• Improved env variable to parameter type conversion logic, avoid converting all numbers to float which caused some formatting issues in things that weren't being careful enough.

v1.5.0 - 2024-02-26 - Checksums, nested expansion, & flexable values

• Beta support for Manager.enable_checksum and octodns-sync --checksum Allows a safer plan & apply workflow where the apply only moves forward if the apply phase plan exactly matches the previous round's planning.
• Fix for bug in MetaProcessor _up_to_date check that was failing when there was a plan with a single change type with a single value, e.g. CNAME.
• Support added for config env variable expansion on nested levels, not just top-level provider/processor keys
• _ChunkedValue ASCII validation added, SPF & TXT
• Re-work value/values handling to always try and do the "right" thing based on the content, so both singular values and lists will be handled identically regardless of whether the key is value or values. This may result in changes/fixes on the first sync after updating IFF you currently have values: a-single-thing, which would have previously been pushed up as bunch of single character values.
• Record.octodns added to formally make that data "API" and Record._octodns is deprecated. The latter has been converted to properties that return the former and emit deprecation warnings.

v1.4.0 - 2023-12-04 - Minor Meta

• Record.lenient property added similar to other common/standard _octodns data
• Processor.process_source_and_target_zones added to support modifying both the desired and/or existing zones just prior to computing changes.
• Fix bug with Record.copy when values is an empty list []
• Fix an issue in MetaProcessor/Manager.include_meta where include_provider wasn't correctly taking effect

v1.3.0 - 2023-11-14 - New and improved processors

Noteworthy changes

• Added octodns.__version__ to replace octodns.__VERSION__ as the former is more of a standard, per pep-8. __VERSION__ is deprecated and will go away in 2.x
• Fixed issues with handling of chunking large TXT values for providers that use the in-built rrs method
• Removed code that included sha in module version number when installing from repo as it caused problems with non-binary installs.
• Fixed a bug/shortcoming in Record.data where it didn't include the octodns portion of the record's data. Record.copy also omitted it since it relies on .data for the heavy lifting. There are no known actual problems due to this bug, but it's possible (non-public) third party providers are susceptible. The most likely place to hit issues in is tests where data and/or copy are abused.

Stuff

• Added ZoneNameFilter processor to enable ignoring/alerting on type-os like octodns.com.octodns.com
• NetworkValueAllowlistFilter/NetworkValueRejectlistFilter added to processors.filter to enable filtering A/AAAA records based on value. Can be useful if you have records with non-routable values in an internal copy of a zone, but want to exclude them when pushing the same zone publically (split horizon)
• ExcludeRootNsChanges processor that will error (or warn) if plan includes a change to root NS records
• Include the octodns special section info in Record.__repr__, makes it easier to debug things with providers that have special functionality configured there.
• Most processor.filter processors now support an include_target flag that can be set to False to leave the target zone data untouched, thus remove any existing filtered records. Default behavior is unchanged and filtered records will be completely invisible to octoDNS

v1.2.1 - 2023-09-29 - Now with fewer stale files

• Update script/release to do clean room dist builds

v1.2.0 - 2023-09-28 - Bunch more bug fixes

• Record.from_rrs supports source parameter
• Record.parse_rdata_text unquotes any quoted (string) values
• Fix crash bug when using the YamlProvider with a directory that contains a mix of split and non-split zone yamls. See https://github.com/octodns/octodns/issues/1066
• Fix discovery of zones from different sources when there are multiple dynamic zones. See https://github.com/octodns/octodns/issues/1068

v1.1.1 - 2023-09-16 - Doh! Fix that one little thing

• Address a bug in the handling of loading auto-arpa manager configuration.

v1.1.0 - 2023-09-13 - More than enough for a minor release

Noteworthy changes

• New dynamic zone config support that allows wildcard entries in the octoDNS config to be expanded by the source provider(s).
• SplitYamlProvider has been deprecated and will be removed in 2.0. YamlProvider now includes the ability to process split zones when configured to do so and allows for more flexibility in how things are laid out than was previously possible. This includes the ability to split some zones and not others and even to have partially split zones with some records in the primary zone YAML and others in a split directory. See YamlProvider documentation for more info.
• YamlProvider now supports a shared_filename that can be used to add a set of common records across all zones using the provider. It can be used stand-alone or in combination with zone files and/or split configs to aid in DRYing up DNS
• YamlProvider now supports an !include directive which enables shared snippets of config to be reused across many records, e.g. common dynamic rules across a set of services with service-specific pool values or a unified SFP value included in TXT records at the root of all zones.
• SpfRecord is formally deprecated with an warning and will become a ValidationError in 2.x
• SpfDnsLookupProcessor is formally deprcated in favor of the version relocated into https://github.com/octodns/octodns-spf and will be removed in 2.x
• MetaProcessor added to enable some useful/cool options for debugging/tracking DNS changes. Specifically timestamps/uuid so you can track whether changes that have been pushed to providers have propogated/transferred correctly.

Stuff

• Add context to general configuration and Record validation, e.g. Some problem at filename.yaml, line 42, column 14. Our custom Yaml Loaders attach this context information, arbitrary string. Other providers may do so by creating ContextDict to pass as data into Record.new.
• Add --all option to octodns-validate to enable showing all record validation errors (as warnings) rather than exiting on the first. Exit code is non-zero when there are any validation errors.
• New post_processors manager configuration parameter to add global processors that run AFTER zone-specific processors. This should allow more complete control over when processors are run.

v1.0.0 - 2023-07-30 - The One

1.0 marks a point at which we can formally deprecate things that will be going away with 2.0 more than specific functionality that has been added or having reached a notable level of stability (beyond what is normal.) It is also long (years) overdue.

Noteworthy changes

• geo records are deprecated.

Stuff

• Removal of a Python 3.7 specific import work-around now that it's no longer an active/supported version. Also bumps required minimum version of Python 3.8

v1.0.0.rc1 - 2023-07-20 - The last one before the 1s

• Record and Zone validation now ensures there's no whitespace in names
• OwnershipProcessor managed records always add w/lenient=True, this allows ownership to be marked in the same zone for delegation NS records.
• octodns-report access --lenient flag to allow running reports with records sourced from providers with non-compliant record data.
• Correctly handle FQDNs in TinyDNS config files that end with trailing .'s
• Complete rewrite of TinyDnsBaseSource to fully implement the spec and the ipv6 extensions

v1.0.0.rc0 - 2023-05-16 - First of the ones

Noteworthy changes

• 1.x Deprecation removals
  • Provider, Source, and Processor shims removed, they've been warnings for > 1yr. Everything should be using and referring to provider-specific modules now.
  • Provider.strict_supports defaults to true, can be returned to the old behavior by setting strict_supports=False in your provider params.
• octodns.record has been broken up into multiple files/modules. Most of the primary things that were available at that module path still will be, but if you are importing things like idna_encode/decode that actually live elsewhere from octodns.record you'll need to update and pull them from their actual home. Classes beginning with _ are not exported from octodns.record any longer as they were considered private/protected.
• Beta support for auto-arpa has been added
• Support for subnet targeting in dynamic records
• Enhanced validations on dynamic rules to encourage best practices
  • The last rule must be a catch-all w/o any targeted geos or subnets
  • Geos must not be repeated in multiple rules
  • Geos in rules and subsequent rules must be ordered most to least specific, e.g. NA-US-TN must come before NA-US, which must occur before NA
  • Similarly, subnets must not be repeated in multiple rules, and various subnet rules must be ordered such that most specific subnets appear before less specific ones; e.g. 10.1.1.0/24 must appear before 10.1.0.0/16.
  • Subnet targeting is considered to be more specific than geo targeting, so subnet-only rules must appear before any subnet+geo rules, followed by geo-only rules (and catch-all rule w/o any geos/subnets in the end)

Stuff

• Added new DsRecord type (provider support will be added over time)
• Added simple IgnoreRootNsFilter
• Minor refactor on YamlProvider to add get_filenames making it a bit easier to create specialized providers inheriting from it
• Fixed bug in OwnershipProcessor when all changes were removed from plans

v0.9.21 - 2022-10-16 - Last of the oughts

• Shim AxfrSource and ZoneFileSource post extraction into https://github.com/octodns/octodns-bind

v0.9.20 - 2022-10-05 - International friendly

Noteworthy changes

• Added support for automatic handling of IDNA (utf-8) zones. Everything is stored IDNA encoded internally. For ASCII zones that's a noop. For zones with utf-8 chars they will be converted and all internals/providers will see the encoded version and work with it without any knowledge of it having been converted. This means that all providers will automatically support IDNA as of this version. IDNA zones will generally be displayed in the logs in their decoded form. Both forms should be accepted in command line arguments. Providers may need to be updated to display the decoded form in their logs, until then they'd display the IDNA version.
• IDNA value support for Record types that hold FQDNs: ALIAS, CNAME, DNAME, PTR, MX, NS, and SRV.
• Support for configuring global processors that apply to all zones with manager.processors

Stuff

• Addressed shortcomings with YamlProvider.SUPPORTS in that it didn't include dynamically registered types, was a static list that could have drifted over time even ignoring 3rd party types.
• Provider._process_desired_zone needed to call Provider.supports rather than doing it's own _type in provider.SUPPORTS. The default behavior in Source.supports is ^, but it's possible for providers to override that behavior and do special checking and _process_desired_zone wasn't taking that into account.
• Now that it's used as it needed to be YamlProvider overrides Provider.supports and just always says Yes so that any dynamically registered types will be supported.
• Add TtlRestrictionFilter processor for adding ttl restriction/checking
• NameAllowlistFilter & NameRejectlistFilter implementations to support filtering on record names to include/exclude records from management.
• All Record values are now first class objects. This shouldn't be an externally visible change, but will enable future improvements.
• --quiet command line option added to raise log level to WARNING, plan output now comes from plan logger rather than Manager so that it can stay at info
• --logging-config command line option added to allow complete logging config customization, see https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.config.html#logging-config-dictschema for file format and https://github.com/octodns/octodns/pull/945#issuecomment-1262839550 for an example config

v0.9.19 - 2022-08-14 - Subzone handling

• Fixed issue with sub-zone handling introduced in 0.9.18

v0.9.18 - 2022-08-09 - Internationalization

• Added octodns.idna idna_encode/idna_decode helpers, providers will need to individually add support via these helpers though :-/
• black formatting implemented (including .git-blame-ignore-revs)
• --output-provider support for dump to allow configurable dump formatting/details
• TLSA record type support
• Subzones support for skipping levels

v0.9.17 - 2022-04-02 - Registration required

Noteworthy changes

• The changes in plans are now ordered based on change type prior to considering the record name and type as was previously done. The chosen order is: deletes, creates, updates. The reason for that many providers make changes one at a time. When changing the type of a record, e.g. from A to CNAME of vice versa this is done by deleting the old and creating the new. If the CNAME create happens before the A delete it will often violate rules against having typed records live at the same node as a CNAME. Several providers have always handled this by sorting the changes themselves. This just standardizes what they are doing as many other providers appear to need to do so, but weren't. There was an ordering before, but it was essentially arbitrarily picked.
• Record.register_type added so that providers can register custom record types.
• New octodns-versions command which will log out the version of octodns and any provider/processor/plan_output modules you are using.

Stuff

• Manager includes the octoDNS version in its init log line
• Non-official release installs will now include a bit of the sha to indicate specifically what revision is being used, e.g. 0.9.17+abcdef12, these roughly follow PEP440 guidelines

v0.9.16 - 2022-03-04 - Manage the root of the problem

Noteworthy changes

• Foundational support for root NS record management.
  • YamlProvider has it enabled and in general everyone should add root NS records that match what is in their provider(s) as of this release if they aren't already there.
  • Other providers will add root NS support over time following this release once they have had the chance to investigate the functionality and implement management if possible with whatever accomidations are required.
  • Watch your providers README.md and CHANGELOG.md for support and more information.
  • Root NS record changes will always require --force indicating that they are impactful changes that need a careful 👀

Stuff

• _AggregateTarget has more complete handling of SUPPORTS* functionality, mostly applicable for the compare operation.
• Fix null MX record validation error introduced in 0.9.15, . is again allowed as a valid exchange value.

v0.9.15 - 2022-02-07 - Where have all the providers gone?

Noteworthy changes

• Providers extracted from octoDNS core into individual repos https://github.com/octodns/octodns/issues/622 & https://github.com/octodns/octodns/pull/822 for more information.
  • AzureProvider
  • AkamaiProvider
  • CloudflareProvider
  • ConstellixProvider
  • DigitalOceanProvider
  • DnsimpleProvider
  • DnsMadeEasyProvider
  • DynProvider
  • EasyDnsProvider
  • EtcHostsProvider
  • GandiProvider
  • GcoreProvider
  • GoogleCloudProvider
  • HetznerProvider
  • MythicBeastsProvider
  • Ns1Provider
  • OvhProvider
  • PowerDnsProvider
  • RackspaceProvider
  • Route53Provider also AwsAcmMangingProcessor
  • SelectelProvider
  • TransipProvider
  • UltraDnsProvider
• As part of the extraction work octoDNS's requirements (setup.py and .txt files) have been updated and minimized and a helper script, script/update-requirements has been added to help manage the txt files going forward.

Prior to extraction

• NS1 provider has received improvements to the dynamic record implementation. As a result, if octoDNS is downgraded from this version, any dynamic records created or updated using this version will show an update.
• An edge-case bug related to geo rules involving continents in NS1 provider has been fixed in this version. However, it will not show/fix the records that match this edge-case. See https://github.com/octodns/octodns/pull/809 for more information. If octoDNS is downgraded from this version, any dynamic records created or updated using this version and matching the said edge-case will not be read/parsed correctly by the older version and will show a diff.
• Transip was updated to their new client api

Stuff

• Additional FQDN validation to ALIAS/CNAME value, MX exchange, SRV target and tests of the functionality.
• Improvements around dynamic record value weights allowing finer grained control

v0.9.14 - 2021-10-10 - A new supports system

Noteworthy changes

• Provider strict_supports param added, currently defaults to false, along with Provider._process_desired_zone this forms the foundations of a new "supports" system where providers will warn or error (depending on the value of strict_supports) during planning about their inability to do what they're being asked. When false they will warn and "adjust" the desired records. When true they will abort with an error indicating the problem. Over time it is expected that all "supports" checking/handling will move into this paradigm and strict_supports will likely be changed to default to true.
• Zone shallow copy support, reworking of Processors (alpha) semantics
• NS1 NA target now includes SX and UM. If NA continent is in use in dynamic records care must be taken to upgrade/downgrade to v0.9.13.
• Ns1Provider now supports a new parameter, shared_notifylist, which results in all dynamic record monitors using a shared notify list named 'octoDNS NS1 Notify List'. Only newly created record values will use the shared notify list. It should be safe to enable this functionality, but existing records will not be converted. Note: Once this option is enabled downgrades to previous versions of octoDNS are discouraged and may result in undefined behavior and broken records. See https://github.com/octodns/octodns/pull/749 for related discussion.
• TransipProvider removed as it currently relies on suds which is broken in new python versions and hasn't seen a release since 2010. May return with https://github.com/octodns/octodns/pull/762

Stuff

• Fully remove python 2.7 support & sims
• Dynamic record pool status flag: up/down/obey added w/provider support as possible.
• Support for multi-value PTRs where providers allow them
• Normalize IPv6 addresses to avoid false changes and simplify providers
• Include pure-python wheel distirubtions in release builds
• Improvements and updates to AzureProvider, especially w/respect to dynamic records.
• NS1Provider support for IPv6 monitors and general caching/performance improvements
• Route53Provider.get_zones_by_name option to avoid paging through huge lists and hitting rate limits
• Misc Route53Provider
• Ensure no network access during testing (helps with runtime)
• Sped up the long pole unit tests
• Misc. ConstellixProvider, DigitalOceanProvider, GCoreProvider, and Route53Provider fixes & improvements

v0.9.13 - 2021-07-18 - Processors Alpha

Noteworthy changes

• Alpha support for Processors has been added. Processors allow for hooking into the source, target, and planing process to make nearly arbitrary changes to data. See the octodns/processor/ directory for examples. The change has been designed to have no impact on the process unless the processors key is present in zone configs.
• Fixes NS1 provider's geotarget limitation of using NA continent. Now, when NA is used in geos it considers all the countries of North America instead of just us-east, us-west and us-central regions
• SX' & 'UM country support added to NS1Provider, not yet in the North America list for backwards compatibility reasons. They will be added in the next releaser.

Stuff

• Lots of progress on the partial/beta support for dynamic records in Azure, still not production ready.
• NS1 fix for when a pool only exists as a fallback
• Zone level lenient flag
• Validate weight makes sense for pools with a single record
• UltraDNS support for aliases and general fixes/improvements
• Misc doc fixes and improvements

v0.9.12 - 2021-04-30 - Enough time has passed

Noteworthy changes

• Formal Python 2.7 support removed, deps and tooling were becoming unmaintainable
• octodns/octodns move, from github/octodns, more to come

Stuff

• ZoneFileSource supports specifying an extension & no files end in . to better support Windows
• LOC record type support added
• Support for pre-release versions of PowerDNS
• PowerDNS delete before create which allows A <-> CNAME etc.
• Improved validation of fqdn's in ALIAS, CNAME, etc.
• Transip support for NS records
• Support for sending plan output to a file
• DNSimple uses zone api rather than domain to support non-registered stuff, e.g. reverse zones.
• Support for fallback-only dynamic pools and related fixes to NS1 provider
• Initial Hetzner provider

v0.9.11 - 2020-11-05 - We still don't know edition

Noteworthy changes

• ALIAS records only allowed at the root of zones - see leient in record docs for work-arounds if you really need them.

New Providers

• Gandi LiveDNS
• UltraDNS
• easyDNS

Stuff

• Add support for zones aliases
• octodns-compare: Prefix filtering and status code on on mismatch
• Implement octodns-sync --source
• Adding environment variable record injection
• Add support for wildcard SRV records, as shown in RFC 2782
• Add healthcheck option 'request_interval' for Route53 provider
• NS1 georegion, country, and catchall need to be separate groups
• Add the ability to mark a zone as lenient
• Add support for geo-targeting of CA provinces
• Update geo_data to pick up a couple renames
• Cloudflare: Add PTR Support, update rate-limit handling and pagination
• Support PowerDNS 4.3.x
• Added support for TCP health checking of dynamic records

v0.9.10 - 2020-04-20 - Dynamic NS1 and lots of misc

• Added support for dynamic records to Ns1Provider, updated client and rate limiting implementation
• Moved CI to use GitHub Actions
• Set up dependabot to automatically PR requirements updates
• Pass at bumping all of the requirements and Dependabot them going forward
• Enhanced dynamic pool validation rules
• Delegation set support for Route53 and fix for CNAME/A ordering issues
• DNSimple sandbox support
• OVHProvider support for CAA
• Akamai rename FastDNS to EdgeDNS
• Transip bumped to 2.1.2 which should get away from its SOAP api which is EOLd

v0.9.9 - 2019-11-04 - Python 3.7 Support

• Extensive pass through the whole codebase to support Python 3
  • Tons of updates to replace def __cmp__ with __eq__ and friends to preserve custom equality and ordering behaviors that are essential to octoDNS's processes.
  • Quite a few objects required the addition of __eq__ and friends so that they're sortable in Python 3 now that those things are more strict. A few places this required jumping through hoops of sorts. Thankfully our tests are pretty thorough and caught a lot of issues and hopefully the whole plan, review, apply process will backstop that.
  • Explicit ordering of changes by (name, type) to address inconsistent ordering for a number of providers that just convert changes into API calls as they come. Python 2 sets ordered consistently, Python 3 they do not. 7958233fcc
  • Route53 _mod_keyer ordering wasn't 100% complete and thus unreliable and random in Python 3. This has been addressed and may result in value reordering on next plan, no actual changes in behavior should occur.
  • incf.countryutils (in pypi) was last released in 2009 is not python 3 compatible (it's country data is also pretty stale.) pycountry_convert appears to have the functionality required to replace its usage so it has been removed as a dependency/requirement.
  • Bunch of additional unit tests and supporting config to exercise new code and verify things that were run into during the Python 3 work
  • lots of sixing of things
• Validate Record name & fqdn length

v0.9.8 - 2019-09-30 - One with no changes b/c PyPi description problems

• No material changes

v0.9.7 - 2019-09-30 - It's about time

• AkamaiProvider, ConstellixProvider, MythicBeastsProvider, SelectelProvider, & TransipPovider providers added
• Route53Provider separator fix
• YamlProvider export error around stringification
• PyPi markdown rendering fix

v0.9.6 - 2019-07-16 - The little one that fixes stuff from the big one

• Reduced dynamic record value weight range to 0-15 so that Dyn and Route53 match up behaviors. Dyn is limited to 0-15 and scaling that up would lose resolution that couldn't be recovered during populate.
• Addressed issues with Route53 change set ordering for dynamic records
• Ignore unsupported record types in DigitalOceanProvider
• Fix bugs in Route53 extra changes handling and health check managagement

v0.9.5 - 2019-05-06 - The big one, with all the dynamic stuff

• dynamic record support, essentially a v2 version of geo records with a lot more flexibility and power. Also support dynamic CNAME records (alpha)
• Route53Provider dynamic record support
• DynProvider dynamic record support
• SUPPORTS_DYNAMIC is an optional property, defaults to False
• Route53Provider health checks support disabling latency measurement
• CloudflareProvider SRV record unpacking fix
• DNSMadeEasy provider uses supports to avoid blowing up on unknown record types
• Updates to AzureProvider lib versions
• Normalize MX/CNAME/ALIAS/PTR value to lower case
• SplitYamlProvider support added
• DynProvider fix for Traffic Directors association to records, explicit rather than "looks close enough"
• TinyDNS support for TXT and AAAA records and fixes to ; escaping
• pre-commit hook requires 100% code coverage

v0.9.4 - 2019-01-28 - The one with a bunch of stuff, before the big one

• A bunch of "dynamic" stuff that'll be detailed in the next release when providers actually support it 😁
• Route53Provider adds support for using session tokens
• Added support for proxying Cloudflare ALIAS records
• Dyn CAA TTL fix
• Documentation fixes and improvements
• natsort version bump to address setup issues
• DNSSimple TXT record handling fixes, ; it's always ;
• Route53Provider support for sessiom tokens
• Add ALIAS to the list of Cloudflare record types that support proxying
• Fix for TTL bug in Dyn CCA records
• Records updated so that 'octodns' record metadata is persisted through YamlProvider
• Added --version support to ArguementParser (thus all commands)

v0.9.3 - 2018-10-29 - Misc. stuff sort of release

• ZoneFile source added
• Major rework/improvements to the Cloudflare record update process, fixed bugs and optimized it quite a bit
• Add ability to manage Cloudflare proxy flag
• Bump requests version to 2.20.0

v0.9.2 - 2018-08-20 - More sources

• EtcHostsProvider implementation to create static/emergency best effort content that can be used in /etc/hosts to resolve things.
• Add lenient support to Zone.add_record, allows populate from providers that have allowed/created invalid data and situations where a sub-zone is being extracted from a parent, but the records still exist in the remote provider.
• AXFR source support added
• google-cloud-dns requirement instead of general package

v0.9.1 - 2018-05-21 - Going backwards with setup.py

NOTICE

Using this version on existing records with geo will result in recreating all health checks. This process has been tested pretty thoroughly to try and ensure a seamless upgrade without any traffic shifting around. It's probably best to take extra care when updating and to try and make sure that all health checks are passing before the first sync with --doit. See #67 for more information.

• Major update to geo healthchecks to allow configuring host (header), path, protocol, and port #67
• SSHFP algorithm type 4
• NS1 and DNSimple support skipping unsupported record types
• Revert back to old style setup.py & requirements.txt, setup.cfg was causing too much pita

v0.9.0 - 2018-03-26 - Way too long since we last met

• Way way way too much to list out here, shouldn't have waited so long
• Initial NS1 geo support
• Major reworking of CloudflareProvider's update process, was only partially functional before, also ignore proxied records
• Fixes and improvements to better support non-ascii records and zones
• Plans indicate when Zones are going to be created
• Fix for GoogleCloudProvider handling of ; escapes
• Skip Alias recordsets for Route53 (unsupported concept/type)
• Make sure that Record geo values are sorted to prevent false diffs that can never be fixed
• DynProvider fix to safely roll rulesets, things could end up on rules without a pool and/or hitting the default rule previously.

v0.8.8 - 2017-10-24 - Google Cloud DNS, Large TXT Record support

• Added support for "chunking" TXT records where individual values were larger than 255 chars. This is common with DKIM records involving multiple providers.
• Added GoogleCloudProvider
• Configurable UnsafePlan thresholds to allow modification of how many updates/deletes are allowed before a plan is declared dangerous.
• Manager.dump bug fix around empty zones.
• Prefer use of . over source in shell scripts
• DynProvider warns when it ignores unrecognized traffic directors.

v0.8.7 - 2017-09-29 - OVH support

Adds an OVH provider.

v0.8.6 - 2017-09-06 - CAA record type,

Misc fixes and improvements.

• Azure TXT record fix
• PowerDNS api support for https
• Configurable Route53 max retries and max-attempts
• Improved key ordering error message

v0.8.5 - 2017-07-21 - Azure, NS1 escaping, & large zones

Relatively small delta this go around. No major themes or anything, just steady progress.

• AzureProvider added thanks to work by Heesu Hwang.
• Fixed some escaping issues with NS1 TXT and SPF records that were tracked down with the help of Blake Stoddard.
• Some tweaks were made to Zone.records to vastly improve handling of zones with very large numbers of records, no more O(N^2).

v0.8.4 - 2017-06-28 - It's been too long

Lots of updates based on our internal use, needs, and feedback & suggestions from our OSS users. There's too much to list out since the previous release was cut, but I'll try to cover the highlights/important bits and promise to do better in the future :fingers_crossed:

Major:

• Complete rework of record validation with lenient mode support added to octodns-dump so that data with validation problems can be dumped to config files as a starting point. octoDNS now also ignores validation errors when pulling the current state from a provider before planning changes. In both cases this is best effort.
• Naming of record keys are based on RFC-1035 and friends, previous names have been kept for backwards compatibility until the 1.0 release.
• Provider record type support is now explicit, i.e. opt-in, rather than opt-out. This prevents bugs/oversights in record handling where providers don't support (new) record types and didn't correctly ignore them.
• ALIAS support for DNSimple, Dyn, NS1, PowerDNS
• Ignored record support added, octodns:\n ignored: True
• Ns1Provider added

Miscellaneous

• Use a 3rd party lib for natural sorting of keys, rather than my old implementation. Sorting can be disabled in the YamlProvider with enforce_order: False.
• Semi-colon/escaping fixes and improvements.
• Meta record support, TXT octodns-meta.<zone>. For now just provider=<provider-id>. Optionally turned on with include_meta manager config val.
• Validations check for CNAMEs co-existing with other records and error out if found. Was a common mistaken/unknown issue and this surfaces the problem early.
• Sizeable refactor in the way Route53 record translation works to make it cleaner/less hacky
• Lots of docs type-o fixes
• Fixed some pretty major bugs in DnsimpleProvider
• Relax UnsafePlan checks a bit, more to come here
• Set User-Agent header on Dyn health checks

v0.8.0 - 2017-03-14 - First public release
