    $dnsbed->listRecords($zid);

    $dnsbed->searchRecords($zid,keyword => $keyword);

METHODS

new(uid,token)

Initialize the object. You should be able to get your UID and token from DNSbed.com

addZone(zone)

The argument is the valid zone name, i.e, google.com, but not www.google.com

For the result of this method and all the methods below, just Data::Dumper it.

    use Data::Dumper;
    my $res = $dnsbed->addZone($zone);
    print Dumper $res;

listZones()

    use Data::Dumper;
    my $res = $dnsbed->listZones; # or
    my $res = $dnsbed->listZones($zid);
    print Dumper $res;

checkZone(zone)

    use Data::Dumper;
    my $res = $dnsbed->checkZone($zone);
    print Dumper $res;

delZone(zid)

The only argument is a valid zone ID.

addRecord(zid,rr_hash)

The first argument is zid, which must be provided.

The keys in rr_hash must have:

rname: the record's name, i.e, www (but not www.example.com)

rtype: the record's type, which can be one of these: A, CNAME, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT

rvalue: the record's value, it could be an IP address or a hostname, based on the type

ttl: the record's TTL, it's a number, i.e, 600 means 600 seconds

mxnum: if the record's type is MX, this means MX host's priority, otherwise it's meaningless

modifyRecord(zid,rr_hash)

The first argument is zid, which must be provided.

The keys in rr_hash must have:

rid: the record's ID with the values you want to modify

rname, rtype, rvalue, ttl, mxnum: the new values provided by you

Notice: after executing this method, the old RID will be lost, with the new record you get a new RID, not the before one.

delRecord(zid,rr_hash)

The first argument is zid, which must be provided.

The keys in rr_hash must have:

rid: the record's ID with the values you want to delete

listRecords(zid,optional_rr_hash)

The first argument is zid, which must be provided.

If you don't provide the second argument, it returns all the records for this zone ID.

optional_rr_hash could have one of these two keys:

rid: if provided, it returns only one record with this rid

rids: it could be, i.e, "1,2,3,4", then returns the records with rid 1,2,3 and 4

searchRecords(zid,kw_hash)

The first argument is zid, which must be provided.

The keys in kw_hash must have:

keyword: the keyword you want to search with

It returns the records whose rname or rvalue have the keyword included.
