Docker-gdnsd

Containerized dynamic authoritative DNS server: gdnsd

gdnsd is an Authoritative-only DNS server which does geographic (or other sorts of) balancing, redirection, weighting, and service-state-conscious failover at the DNS layer.

Building the container

Clone this repository, go into the directory and run a command like: docker build --tag gdnsd --build-arg GDNS_VER=2.2.4 .

It is mandatory to precise a version number for gdns through the argument GDNS_VER.

One can also use the docker-compose.yml file provided here: docker-compose build

Using the container

docker run --detach --rm=true --volumes ./my-gdnsd-config/:/etc/gdnsd/ --name=gdnsd --hostname=gdnsd gdnsd

Or use docker-compose:

docker-compose up -d

Debugging

Use a command like this one:

docker run -it --rm=true --volumes ./my-gdnsd-config/:/etc/gdnsd/ --name=gdnsd --hostname=gdnsd --entrypoint=sh gdnsd

Or use docker-compose:

docker-compose up
