I need to locate a record in Route53 based on Value. My Route53 has 10,000+ records. Searching by Value for a Hosted Zone with more than 2000 records is not currently supported in the web interface. So, I must resort to using the AWS Route53 CLI's list-resource-record-sets command and the --query
parameter. This parameter uses JMESPath to select or filter the result set.
So, let's look at the result set we are working with.
$ aws route53 list-resource-record-sets --hosted-zone-id Z3RB47PQXVL6N2 --max-items 5 --profile myprofile
{

"ResourceRecordSets": [
{
"ResourceRecords": [
{

},
{

},
{
"Value": "ns-1798.awsdns-32.co.uk."
},
{
"Value": "ns-421.awsdns-52.com."
}
],
"Type": "NS",
"Name": "mydomain.com.",
"TTL": 300
},
{
"ResourceRecords": [
{
"Value": "ns-1264.awsdns-30.org. awsdns-hostmaster.amazon.com. 1 7200 900 1209600 86400"
}
],
"Type": "SOA",
"Name": "mydomain.com.",
"TTL": 300
},
{
"ResourceRecords": [
{
"Value": "12.23.34.45"
}
],
"Type": "A",
"Name": "abcdefg.mydomain.com.",
"TTL": 300
},
{
"ResourceRecords": [
{
"Value": "34.45.56.67"
}
],
"Type": "A",
"Name": "zyxwvut.mydomain.com.",
"TTL": 300
},
{
"ResourceRecords": [
{
"Value": "45.56.67.78"
}
],
"Type": "A",
"Name": "abcdxyz.mydomain.com.",
"TTL": 300
}
]
}
Ideally I need to find the ResourceRecordSets.Name
, but I can definitely work with returning the entire ResourceRecordSet
object, of any record that has a ResourceRecords.Value == 45.56.67.78
.
// My first attempt was to use filters on two levels, but this always returns an empty array
ResourceRecordSets[?Type == 'A'].ResourceRecords[?Value == '45.56.67.78'][]
[]
// Second attempt came after doing more research on JMESPath. I could not find any good examples using filters on two levels, so I do not filter on ResourceRecordSets
ResourceRecordSets[*].ResourceRecords[?Value == '45.56.67.78']
[
[],
[],
[
{
"Value": "45.56.67.78"
}
],
[],
[]
]
After beating my head on the desk for a while longer I decided to consult the experts. Using the above example, how can I utilize JMESPath and the AWS Route53 CLI to return one of the two following for records with a Value == 45.56.67.78
?
[
"Name": "abcdxyz.mydomain.com."
]
OR
{
"ResourceRecords": [
{
"Value": "45.56.67.78"
}
],
"Type": "A",
"Name": "abcdxyz.mydomain.com.",
"TTL": 300
}
This should do:
aws route53 list-resource-record-sets --hosted-zone-id Z3RB47PQXVL6N2 --query "ResourceRecordSets[?ResourceRecords[?Value == '45.56.67.78'] && Type == 'A'].Name"
