I am using terraform to set-up my infrastructure, but use godaddy for my domain hosting. Unfortunately, every time I set-up my Cloud DNS in GCP the nameservers are random between
ns-cloud-{x}1.googledomains.com. x = a, b, c, d, e
which means there is always a manual step to update these in Godaddy.com. Is there any way this can be automated by fixing the ns-cloud nameservers or automate the nameservers at Godaddy?
I know, I am bit late to the party but you can do this using n3integration
like @John Hanely said. Below is my code using which I am able to update my godaddy DNS nameservers.
# Adding Provider
terraform {
required_providers {
godaddy = {
source = "n3integration/godaddy"
version = "~> 1.9.1"
}
}
}
# Add your godaddy API KEY and Secret
provider "godaddy" {
key = jsondecode(file("./godaddy.json")).key
secret = jsondecode(file("./godaddy.json")).secret
}
# Finally
resource "godaddy_domain_record" "tfs_domain_record" {
domain = "yourdomain.com"
addresses = [google_compute_global_address.tf_external_ip.address]
nameservers = data.google_dns_record_set.tf_record_set.rrdatas
}
addresses : Your VM's or Loadbalancer's public IP (static)
nameservers : Your cloud DNS nameservers
