Create subdomains for AWS without diving into the AWS SDK
First install this module with npm install aws-subdomain --save
.
var subdomain = require('aws-subdomain')({
accessKeyId: 'your-id-here',
secretAccessKey: 'your-secret-here'
});
subdomain.create('i.wear.sho.es', function (err, result) {
// handle error/result
});
subdomain.delete('i.wear.sho.es', function (err, result) {
// handle error/result
});
We will find the correct HostedZoneId based on the root domain, e.g. 'sho.es' and will create/delete the subdomain for you.
npm install aws-subdomain -g
aws-subdomain new.shiny.po.ny -i [awsAccessKeyId] -s [awsSecretAccessKey]
Can also pass -a
with 'upsert', or 'delete'. The default is to 'create'.
By default the AWS credentials come from environment variables
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
, but can be
overridden with -i
and -s
respectively.
