technitium-dnsserver-php-api

This API client is intended to be used with Technitiums DNS Server For the full Technitium API Documentation please visit Technitium API Documentation

Installation

Via Git

Run git clone https://github.com/ente/technitium-dnsserver-php-api.git where ever you want the library to be located. Then require_once "/path/to/API.dnsserver.ente.php"; & use Technitium\DNSServer\API\API; in your PHP file.

Via Composer

Run composer require ente/technitium-dnsserver-php-api Then: require_once "/path/to/vendor/autoload.php"; & use Technitium\DNSServer\API\API;

Configuration

.env

• API_URL: The API URL of your Technitium DNS Server (with port), e.g. localhost:5380, 192.168.1.2:5380 or server.domain.tld:5380
• USERNAME: The username for the user account. (You should create a dedicated one)
• PASSWORD: The password for the user account.
• INCLUDE_INFO: Returns basic information that might be relevant for the queried request.
• TOKEN: Your API token, if already existent. ([Your Username] > [Create API Token]). If left empty, the API will use the username and password for authentication to create an API token for you and will write it to your .env.
• USE_POST: Specify if you want to access the API via POST (true) instead of GET (false) in default.
• USE_HTTPS: Enable (true) HTTPS for the API connection. If your server does not support HTTPS, the API will simply return false to all requests.

General Usage

require_once "/vendor/autoload.php";
use Technitium\DNSServer\API;

$api = new API("path/to/env", "env-name");

// Get all zones
$zones = $api->zones()->get();
// Get all zone records
$records = $api->zones->records()->get("example.com");

// Install an app

$sampleApp = $api->apps()->listStoreApps()["storeApps"][0];
if($api->apps->install($sampleApp["name"])) {
    echo "App installed successfully!";
}

// OR

$sampleApp = $api->apps()->listStoreApps()["storeApps"][0];
if($api->apps->downloadAndInstall($sampleApp["name"], $sampleApp["url"])) {
    echo "App installed successfully!";
}

Send to custom endpoint

<?php

require_once "/vendor/autoload.php";
use Technitium\DNSServer\API;

$api = new API("path/to/env", "env-name");
// You have to set <bool>$bypass to true to use this feature
echo var_dump($api->sendCall(data: array("field" => "value"), endpoint: "admin/users/list", skip: false, bypass: true))

DDNS

You can use the DDNS.Helper.API.dnsserver.ente.php class to configure records to point to the current IP address.

<?php

require_once "/vendor/autoload.php";
use Technitium\DNSServer\API;
use Technitium\DNSServer\API\Helper\DDNS;

$path_to_configJSON = "/my/config.json";
$ddns = new DDNS(new API());
$ddns->updateRecords($path_to_configJSON);

// OR

$ddns_result = new DDNS(new API("path/to/env"), file_get_contents($path_to_configJSON)); // starts automatically updating the records

// OR
$api = new API();
$ddns_result = $api->ddns()->updateRecords($path_to_configJSON);

Your DDNS configuration file should look like this:

{
    "domanin": "example.com",
    "records": [
        "sub.example.com"
    ]
}

You can also set up multiple environments by using different configuration files:

<?php

require_once "/vendor/autoload.php";
use Technitium\DNSServer\API;
use Technitium\DNSServer\API\Helper\DDNS;

DDNS(new API("path/to/env"), file_get_contents("/my/config.json"));
DDNS(new API(__DIR__), file_get_contents("/my/config2.json"));
DDNS(new API(__DIR__ . "/configurations", ".env-custom"), file_get_contents("/my/config3.json"));
