h1. MongoDB configuration for Bind9

This is just a simple hack in order to use MongoDB as database with a REST backend.

h2. Install :

p.

• Install libcurl-dev and json-c library
• Clone git://github.com/guillaumerose/bind-http-json.git
• Build as usual
  • ./configure
  • make
  • make install
• Run named with following configuration and web server

h2. Sample configuration :

bc.. controls { / empty / };

options { directory "/var/cache/bind";

allow-transfer { any; }; // auth-nxdomain no; listen-on-v6 { any; }; };

zone "example.com" { type master; database "remote http://127.0.0.1:4567"; };

p.

h2. Ruby server :

bc.. require 'rubygems' require 'mongo' require 'sinatra'

db = Mongo::Connection.new('flame.local.mongohq.com', 27078).db('development') db.authenticate("", "") coll = db.collection('data')

get '/example.com/lookup' do content_type "application/json"

entry = coll.find_one({"name" => params[:name]})

return '{}' if entry.nil?

'{"type" : "' + entry['type'] + '", "field" : "' + entry['value'] + '"}' end

get '/example.com/authority' do content_type "application/json"

'{ "data" : [ { "type" : "SOA", "field" : [ "ns1.example.com.", "dns.example.com.", 2010122701 ] }, { "type" : "NS", "field" : "ns1.example.com." }, { "type" : "NS", "field" : "ns2.example.com." } ] }' end

p. This server assumes that your document looks like { "name" : "www", "type" : "A", "value" : "192.168.0.1"}
