The domain name of the DNS zone.

This is the dns_name specified by the user in the subdomain registration.

fqdn - string

The FQDN (fully-qualified domain name) of the DNS zone.

Format

The official Nullstone modules provide automatic subdomain generation. These modules create a unique DNS zone based on:

  • domain name
  • dns_name specified by the user
  • the current environment
  • var.create_vanity

Examples for domain acme.io:

dns_nameenvvar.create_vanityfqdn
apidevfalseapi.dev.acme.io
apistagingfalseapi.staging.acme.io
apiprodtrueapi.acme.io

zone_id - string

The ID of the Route53 Zone representing the DNS zone in AWS.

A list of authoritative nameservers for the created domain.

By setting the nameservers in the domain registrar to these records, this domain will have the source of truth for DNS records.

An AWS IAM User and access keys with explicit access to delegate subdomains in this domain to another DNS zone.

Format

    name       = aws_iam_user.delegator.name
    access_key = aws_iam_access_key.delegator.id
    secret_key = aws_iam_access_key.delegator.secret
}
