Access built-in variables

[viharm]

Is it possible to access built-in variables in functions? Like which DNS Provider is currently being processed?

I'm trying to setup a macro for Google hosted domains. I've added a line for a URL forward for subdomain contacts which forwards to https://www.google.com/contacts.

Since the URL forward syntax differs for different DNS hosts, e.g., Porkbun, I'd like to check which registrar it is, then apply the relevant syntax.

Something like this.....

    var pack_GoogleHosted = [
      if ( builtin_DNSProvider = DSP_PORKBUN) {
        PORKBUN_URLFWD(
          "contacts",
          "https://www.google.com/contacts",
          {type: "permanant", includePath: "no", wildcard: "yes"}
        )
      } else {
        URL('contacts', 'https://www.google.com/contacts')
      }
      , CNAME('calendar', uri_GoogleHosted)
      , CNAME('drive', uri_GoogleHosted)
      , CNAME('mail', uri_GoogleHosted)
      , CNAME('groups', uri_GoogleHosted)
      , CNAME('sites', uri_GoogleHosted)

      , CNAME('site', 'sites')
      , CNAME('googlepages', 'ghs.google.com.')
      , CNAME('start', uri_GoogleHosted)
    ]

Sadly not. The records are determined in an early phase when the DNS provider is not "known".

My advice is to have two macros (GoogleHosted and PorkBun_GoogleHosted). Yes, you'll need to change which macro you use when you change DNS providers, but luckily that isn't very often.

Hope that helps!
