Cloudflare DNS Records¶

Description¶

Generic, data-driven role to manage DNS records on Cloudflare (A/AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV).

Designed for reuse across apps (e.g., Mailu) and environments.

Overview¶

This role wraps community.general.cloudflare_dns and applies records from a single structured variable (cloudflare_records). It supports async operations and can be used to provision all required records for a service in one task.

Cosmos¶

The diagram places Cloudflare DNS Records in the Infinito.Nexus cosmos: the components it deploys (capabilities), the central services it consumes (dependencies), and its outward reach (federation and bridged external networks).

    end

Solid 1:1 edges are fixed relationships; dashed 0..1 edges are conditional (enabled only in matching deployments); red 0..0 edges are turned off in this role. Node markers show the role’s deploy modes (💻 host, 🐳 compose, 🐝 swarm); ❌ marks a service that is explicitly turned off, and ⚙️ an Ansible role dependency declared in meta/main.yml.

Features¶

Data-driven input for multiple record types
Supports A/AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV
Optional async execution
Minimal logging of secrets
