== Project Spring Clean ==

It is time for this lirary to get updated so it is a little more modern, when it was made things were just done diffrently. If you have a idea, im open to impliment it... if you look at my history of acepting pull requests i have a 100% aceptance rate so please dont fork and run with this on your own... if you want i will just add you as a developer once you have done a few pull requests.

during project Spring Clean i want to use getters for listing records, namespace the project, add a PSR-3 style logger, adopt PSR-1/PSR-2 and debating with myself if a trait would be handy... not sure tho its not like a file storage system, any thoughts?

PHP API binding to Rackspace Cloud DNS (US & UK)
----------------------------------------------------

[](#php-api-binding-to-rackspace-cloud-dns-us--uk)

This is strictly for PHP5 since PHP4 should be forgotten forever.

PLEASE NOTE: any help suggestions/requests welcome

Server communication code originally from and slightly adapted, thanks to the work of that author making this was relatively easy

you made get errors trying to establish an ssl conection to rackspace, if you get this you have a old version of Curl installed meaning the CA list is outdated.

just run $dns->set\_cabundle(true); before you try to do a API action

All API Methods Implemented So Far: Check sample.php for code sample

$dns = new rackDNS($rs\_user,$rs\_api\_key); //($user, $key, $endpoint = 'UK') $endpoint can be UK or US

// Show all domains avalible $dns->list\_domains(50,0); //($limit = 10, $offset = 0)

$dns->list\_subdomains($sampleID);//($domainID)

$dns->domain\_export($sampleID);//($domainID)

$dns->list\_records($sampleID);//($domainID)

$dns->list\_record\_details($sampleID,$recID);//($domainID,$recordID)

$dns->domain\_import($sampleImport);

$dns->list\_domain\_search('domain.com');

$dns->modify\_domain($sampleID,''); //($domainID = false , $email = false , $ttl = 86400 , $comment = 'Modify Domain Using rackDNS API')

$dns->delete\_domains($sampleID);

$dns->delete\_domain\_record($domainID,$recordID)

$dns->list\_domain\_details($domainID = false, $showRecords = false, $showSubdomains = false);

$dns->import\_domain('domain.com');

$dns->create\_domain($name = false, $email = false, $records = array());

$dns->create\_domain\_record($domainID = false, $records = array());

$dns->create\_domain\_record\_helper($type = false, $name = false, $data = false, $ttl = 86400, $priority = false);

example use:

$dns = new rackDNS(RS\_USER,RS\_API\_KEY);

// make a new dns zone $records = array($dns->create\_domain\_record\_helper('MX','originalwebware.com','mail.originalwebware.com',86400,2), $dns->create\_domain\_record\_helper('a','originalwebware.com','192.168.0.1',86400)); name, email, comment, ttl, records $results = $dns->create\_domain('originalwebware.com', '', 'a comment', 3600, $records);

// add a new record(s) to a dns zone $records = array($dns->create\_domain\_record\_helper('MX','originalwebware.co.uk','mail.originalwebware.co.uk',86400,2), $dns->create\_domain\_record\_helper('a','originalwebware.co.uk','192.168.0.1',86400)); $results = $dns->create\_domain\_record(123456,$records);

$dns->getLastResponseStatus(); //returns status code $dns->getLastResponseMessage();//returns status message
