How can i try it ? How long can it itake to be on official release ?

Hello,

To try it you have to :

1. git clone -b feature/new-provider-efficientip https://github.com/EfficientIP-Labs/external-dns.git && cd external-dns
2. make build
3. ./build/external-dns --source=service --provider=efficientip --efficientip-host=EFFICIENTIP_HOST --no-efficientip-ssl-verify --efficientip-username=EFICIENTIP_USERNAME --efficientip-password=EFFICIENTIP_PASSWORD
   Just replace the EFFICIENTIP_XXX by the correct value matching your SOLIDserver.

For the official release I do not know.

Best regards.

I can't find where it get "vmdev-ct-fb11" as solidserver name

[EIP-Laurent]

Hello,

Ok I will take a look and come back to you,

for the vmdev-ct-fb11 it was a dummy name that have been used to generate the Go API used by the provider.
This sould have been renamed.

My first impression is it looks like the Go API used to requests the SDS does match the one we had expect since the commit a4a4561

Hello,

Any chance someone can review again to unlock this topic ?

Thanks in advance.

[szuecs]

We don't add providers anymore. They should soon be able to use the new plugin interface. See the plug-in provider pr.

Sorry, but initial PR was submitted about 1.5 years ago.

Considering the efforts put into implementing this specific provider based on what was available back at this time, I hope you will reconsider this answer.

Kind regards.
