How to Handle Domain and Subdomain in One Route53 Record?

Handling Domain and Subdomain in One Route53 Record

In this guide, we will demonstrate how to handle both a domain and its subdomain within a single Route53 record using Pulumi. This involves creating an AWS Route53 hosted zone and adding record sets for both the domain and subdomain.

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Create a Route53 Hosted Zone: First, we need to create a hosted zone for our domain.
2. Add Record Sets: Next, we will add record sets for both the domain and the subdomain within the hosted zone.

Summary

By following these steps, you can manage both your domain and subdomain within a single Route53 record using Pulumi. This approach simplifies DNS management and ensures consistency across your domain and subdomain configurations.

Full Code Example

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";

// Create a Route53 Hosted Zone
const hostedZone = new aws.route53.Zone("myHostedZone", {
    name: "example.com",
});

// Add a record set for the domain
const domainRecord = new aws.route53.Record("domainRecord", {
    zoneId: hostedZone.zoneId,
    name: "example.com",
    type: "A",
    ttl: 300,
    records: ["192.0.2.1"],
});

// Add a record set for the subdomain
const subdomainRecord = new aws.route53.Record("subdomainRecord", {
    zoneId: hostedZone.zoneId,
    name: "sub.example.com",
    type: "A",
    ttl: 300,
    records: ["192.0.2.2"],
});

export const hostedZoneId = hostedZone.zoneId;
export const domainRecordName = domainRecord.name;
export const subdomainRecordName = subdomainRecord.name;
