DNSControl/dnscontrol v5.7.1 on GitHub

Greetings DNS fans!

Thanks to all contributors involved in this release! This is a community project and we couldn't do it without all of your contributions!

Sincerely,

Monthly video call!

Everyone is invited to the Monthly DNSControl Community Video Conference Call on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. Join whether you are a new user with questions or an experienced developer that wants to discuss DNSControl internals... or anything in between! Meeting details on
GitHub Discussions.

Experimental: Try the new D() syntax!

Select credential entries directly with REGISTRAR() and SERVICE() in dnsconfig.js. The legacy syntax remains supported; this revision replaces the experimental PROVIDER()/DNS_SERVICE() syntax from v5.3.0. See the examples in the conversion guide. Please test it and share feedback!

Deprecation warnings

Warning
