Simple record creation?

rwjack opened this issue · comments

Something else did actually come up :)

I was just wondering if there is a simple way of creating records in a single zone?

Eg. -> I create a home.lan zone, and in it have records for

  • snitch : 10.0.0.1
  • x : 10.0.0.2
  • y : 10.0.0.3
    etc...
    So when going to snitch.home.lan in my browser it would resolve to 10.0.0.1

Something similar to my Pi-Hole config?

I found the snitch config a bit confusing since I'm used to having a query and a response. Here I just see the response? Seems a bit overkill having to create zones for each query and then add A records individually

I might understand how basic DNS works, but apparently I'm not a guru, seeing all the options I could configure inside snitch.

Yes, at the moment the way the GUI works is that each (sub)domain is its own zone, and from GUI there isn't a quick and easy way of creating zones as a batch.

You could however batch-import them using a CSV by visiting /dns/import - would that work?

I did most of the stuff manually, don't have a lot of records, but it would be nice to have a simple way of migrating to snitch, for future reference.
