Running PowerDNS-Admin
NOTE: The default config file is located at ./powerdnsadmin/default_config.py. If you want to load another one, please set the FLASK_CONF environment variable. E.g.
export FLASK_CONF=../configs/development.py
Then create the database schema by running:
(flask) [khanh@localhost powerdns-admin] export FLASK_APP=powerdnsadmin/__init__.py
(flask) [khanh@localhost powerdns-admin] flask db upgrade
Also, we should generate asset files:
(flask) [khanh@localhost powerdns-admin] yarn install --pure-lockfile
(flask) [khanh@localhost powerdns-admin] flask assets build
Now you can run PowerDNS-Admin by command:
(flask) [khanh@localhost powerdns-admin] ./run.py
Open your web browser and access to http://localhost:9191 to visit PowerDNS-Admin web interface. Register an user. The first user will be in Administrator role.
At the first time you login into the PDA UI, you will be redirected to setting page to configure the PDNS API information.
Note: For production environment, i recommend to run PowerDNS-Admin with WSGI over Apache instead of flask's built-in web server...
Take a look at WSGI Apache Example WIKI page to see how to configure it.
