dnsify v0.5.1

dnsify - Simplify your dns config

A human friendly format for defining and documenting and your DNS config and a tool for verifying and applying it to your friendly dns service provider.

e.g tableflip.io.dns.md

## Origin: tableflip.io

name       | type | data
-----------|------|---------------
@ www blog | A    | 178.62.82.182
@          | MX   | mx-{1,3}.rightbox.com:10

Why

• Documentation is the config.
• Reduce the repetition (looking at you zonefiles, OMG)
• Prefer readability over opaque terseness (tinydns, I <3 you, but why you make me RTFM every time?)

What

• Convert a Markdown table to an "Abstract Zone File" object
• Merge multiple tables into one zone object
• Understand shell style brace expansions {1,2}.foo.com => 1.foo.com 2.foo.com
• Output a zonefile or JSON

Usage
