cli53 is a command line tool for managing Amazon Route 53 DNS. It supports importing and exporting zone files in BIND format and CRUD operations on hosted zones and records, including AWS routing extensions.

Use cases

  • manage route 53 dns records from the command line
  • import and export bind zone files to route 53
  • create and delete hosted zones via cli
  • create weighted, failover, geolocation and latency dns records
  • script dns changes in ci/cd pipelines
  • manage aws reusable delegation sets

When to choose

  • you want fast, scriptable Route 53 management without the AWS console
  • you need to migrate zones between BIND format and Route 53
  • you prefer a single static binary over the broader aws cli for DNS tasks

When to avoid

  • you need a general-purpose AWS tool beyond Route 53
  • you want a GUI for DNS management
  • you run Alpine Docker images and cannot build from source
