External DNS Sync uses PastureStack names for the repository, executable, container image, entrypoint, internal application types, and new project-facing text. The POC exposes the following neutral identifiers.
PLATFORM_URLPLATFORM_ACCESS_KEYPLATFORM_SECRET_KEY- Event type
dns.update - Event resource endpoint
externalDnsEvents
The minimal HTTP client is implemented in internal/platformapi; an
upstream-branded client package is not part of the public dependency surface.
The entrypoint accepts the literal historical CATTLE_URL,
CATTLE_ACCESS_KEY, and CATTLE_SECRET_KEY values injected by a compatible
agent-role scheduler and maps them to PLATFORM_*. Those names are protocol
identifiers, not product branding.
- URL
http://metadata/2015-12-19; isolated validation may override it withMETADATA_URL - Service label
io.pasturestack.service.external_dns - Service template label
io.pasturestack.service.external_dns_name_template - Host policy label
io.pasturestack.host.external_dns - Host address label
io.pasturestack.host.external_dns_ip
The neutral names take precedence. For in-place upgrades, the runtime also
reads the literal historical io.rancher.service.external_dns,
io.rancher.service.external_dns_name_template,
io.rancher.host.external_dns, and io.rancher.host.external_dns_ip
protocol labels. They are bounded compatibility identifiers, not product
branding. New deployments should use the neutral names.
The CA input path defaults to /var/lib/pasturestack/etc/ssl/ca.crt and can be
overridden with PLATFORM_CA_ROOT. The non-root entrypoint combines it with
the Ubuntu CA bundle under /tmp and exports SSL_CERT_FILE.
The health endpoint listens on :10000 by default and can be overridden with
HEALTH_ADDRESS. GET /ping returns pong; HEAD /ping returns an empty
successful response after checking metadata, the selected provider, and the
platform API.
The external-dns-<environment UUID>.<root domain> TXT record prefix is
preserved. It identifies A records managed by this service and prevents blind
deletion of unrelated provider records.
The reviewed v0.8.0 image registers only the route53 provider. Other
provider implementations inherited in the source tree are not included in the
published runtime registration surface.
