Examples

1. A record with alias

• this example will create an A record with Alias pointing to a resource name for example alb, s3, cloudfront, etc.

module "service_dns_a_record" {
  source  = "nashvan/route53-module/aws"
  version = "1.2.0"

  hosted_zone = local.account_config["hosted_zone"]
  
  records = [
    {
      name  = "${var.environment_name}.${local.app_name}"
      type  = "A"
      alias = {
        name    = "abc-1830827336.xyz.elb.amazonaws.com"
        zone_id = "Z35SXDOTRQ7X7K"
      }
    }
  ]

}

2. A record with no alias

• this example will create an A record pointing to the IP address

module "service_dns" {
  source  = "nashvan/route53-module/aws"
  version = "1.2.0"

  hosted_zone = local.account_config["hosted_zone"]
  
  records = [
    {
      name  = "abc"
      type  = "A"
      ttl   = 3600
      records = ["10.10.10.10",]
    }
  ]

}

3. CNAME record

• this example will create a CNAME record (poiting an fqdn to another fqdn for example)

module "service_dns_cname" {
  source  = "nashvan/route53-module/aws"
  version = "1.2.0"

  hosted_zone = local.account_config["hosted_zone"]
  
  records = [
    {
      name    = "xyz"
      type    = "CNAME"
      ttl     = "5"
      records = ["develop.abc.test.info.",]
    }
  ]
}

// Will create the following record for you // xyz.cmcloudlab912.info CNAME Simple - No develop.abc.cmcloudlab912.info. 5

4. CNAME wighted routing policy

module "service_dns_cname" {
  source  = "nashvan/route53-module/aws"
  version = "1.2.0"

  hosted_zone = local.account_config["hosted_zone"]
  
  records = [
    {
      name    = "test"
      type    = "CNAME"
      ttl     = "5"
      records = ["develop.abc.test.info.",]

      weighted_routing_policy = {
        weight         = 90
      }
      set_identifier = "develop"

    }
  ]
}

// Will create the following record for you // test.test.info CNAME Weighted 90 No develop.abc.test.info.

test.cmcloudlab912.info CNAME Simple - No develop.abc.cmcloudlab912.info. 5
