google_dns_managed_zone resource

Syntax

A google_dns_managed_zone is used to test a Google ManagedZone resource

Beta Resource

This resource has beta fields available. To retrieve these fields, include beta: true in the constructor for the resource

Examples

describe google_dns_managed_zone(project: 'chef-gcp-inspec', zone: 'example-zone') do
  it { should exist }
  its('dns_name') { should cmp 'dns-zone-name.com.' }

  its('description') { should cmp 'example description' }
  its('zone_signing_key_algorithm') { should cmp 'rsasha256' }
  its('key_signing_key_algorithm') { should cmp 'rsasha512' }
end

describe google_dns_managed_zone(project: 'chef-gcp-inspec', zone: 'nonexistent') do
  it { should_not exist }
end

Test that a GCP compute zone exists

describe google_dns_managed_zone(project: 'chef-inspec-gcp',  zone: 'zone-name') do
  it { should exist }
end

Test that a GCP DNS managed zone has the expected DNS name

describe google_dns_managed_zone(project: 'chef-inspec-gcp',  zone: 'zone-name') do
  its('dns_name') { should match 'mydomain.com' }
end

Test that a GCP DNS managed zone has expected name server

describe google_dns_managed_zone(project: 'chef-inspec-gcp',  zone: 'zone-name') do
  its('name_servers') { should include 'ns-cloud-d1.googledomains.com.' }
end

Properties

Properties that can be accessed from the google_dns_managed_zone resource:

description
A mutable string of at most 1024 characters associated with this resource for the user’s convenience. Has no effect on the managed zone’s function.
dns_name
The DNS name of this managed zone, for instance “example.com.”.
dnssec_config
DNSSEC configuration
kind
Identifies what kind of resource this is
non_existence
Specifies the mechanism used to provide authenticated denial-of-existence responses. non_existence can only be updated when the state is off.

Possible values:

  • nsec
  • nsec3
state
Specifies whether DNSSEC is enabled, and what mode it is in

Possible values:

  • off
  • on
  • transfer
default_key_specs
Specifies parameters that will be used for generating initial DnsKeys for this ManagedZone. If you provide a spec for keySigning or zoneSigning, you must also provide one for the other. default_key_specs can only be updated when the state is off.
algorithm
String mnemonic specifying the DNSSEC algorithm of this key

Possible values:

  • ecdsap256sha256
  • ecdsap384sha384
  • rsasha1
  • rsasha256
  • rsasha512
key_length
Length of the keys in bits
key_type
Specifies whether this is a key signing key (KSK) or a zone signing key (ZSK). Key signing keys have the Secure Entry Point flag set and, when active, will only be used to sign resource record sets of type DNSKEY. Zone signing keys do not have the Secure Entry Point flag set and will be used to sign all other types of resource record sets.

Possible values:

  • keySigning
  • zoneSigning
kind
Identifies what kind of resource this is
id
Unique identifier for the resource; defined by the server.
name
User assigned name for this resource. Must be unique within the project.
name_servers
Delegate your managed_zone to these virtual name servers; defined by the server
name_server_set
Optionally specifies the NameServerSet for this ManagedZone. A NameServerSet is a set of DNS name servers that all host the same ManagedZones. Most users will leave this field unset.
creation_time
The time that this resource was created on the server. This is in RFC3339 text format.
labels
A set of key/value label pairs to assign to this ManagedZone.
visibility
The zone’s visibility: public zones are exposed to the Internet, while private zones are visible only to Virtual Private Cloud resources.

Possible values:

  • private
  • public
private_visibility_config
For privately visible zones, the set of Virtual Private Cloud resources that the zone is visible from.
networks
The list of VPC networks that can see this zone.
network_url
The fully qualified URL of the VPC network to bind to. This should be formatted like https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/{project}/global/networks/{network}
forwarding_config
(Beta only) The presence for this field indicates that outbound forwarding is enabled for this zone. The value of this field contains the set of destinations to forward to.
target_name_servers
List of target name servers to forward to. Cloud DNS will select the best available name server if more than one target is given.
ipv4_address
IPv4 address of a target name server.
forwarding_path
Forwarding path for this TargetNameServer. If unset or default Cloud DNS will make forwarding decision based on address ranges, i.e. RFC1918 addresses go to the VPC, Non-RFC1918 addresses go to the Internet. When set to private, Cloud DNS will always send queries through VPC for this target

Possible values:

  • default
  • private
peering_config
(Beta only) The presence of this field indicates that DNS Peering is enabled for this zone. The value of this field contains the network to peer with.
target_network
The network with which to peer.
network_url
The fully qualified URL of the VPC network to forward queries to. This should be formatted like https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/{project}/global/networks/{network}
reverse_lookup
(Beta only) Specifies if this is a managed reverse lookup zone. If true, Cloud DNS will resolve reverse lookup queries using automatically configured records for VPC resources. This only applies to networks listed under private_visibility_config.
service_directory_config
(Beta only) The presence of this field indicates that this zone is backed by Service Directory. The value of this field contains information related to the namespace associated with the zone.
namespace
The namespace associated with the zone.
namespace_url
The fully qualified URL of the service directory namespace that should be associated with the zone. Ignored for public visibility zones.
