.net core api to retrieve dns records

Built a .net core api using swagger, dnsclient.net, and rollbar. Have a look here https://github.com/xavier-hernandez/dnsclient-api .

Here is the README:

I created a YAML file built on OpenAPI 3.0 standards for my endpoints(paths) and models. I generated the stub code on https://editor.swagger.io/ then tweaked, fixed, and updated the code. Creating the stub code really gives a great head start.

I kept authentication simple, it’s using an API key sent in the header request. Currently the API key is hardcoded to “1” but maybe later I’ll use a database or something to store API keys. I might host this somewhere if it’s something I find interesting to host. Tie it maybe to a MySQL/MariaDB database.

The library being used to retrieve DNS information is called DnsClient.NET https://github.com/MichaCo/DnsClient.NET and available as a nuget package.

I’m also using https://rollbar.com/ which is an easy way to log errors and information. Maybe if I host it on Azure I’ll use Application Insights.
