Usage

var REG_NONE = NewRegistrar("none");

Caveats

Linode does not allow all TTLs, but only a specific subset of TTLs. The following TTLs are supported (source):

  • 0 (Default, currently equivalent to 1209600, or 14 days)

  • 300

  • 3600

  • 7200

  • 14400

  • 28800

  • 57600

  • 86400

  • 172800

  • 345600

  • 604800

  • 1209600

  • 2419200

The provider will automatically round up your TTL to one of these values. For example, 600 seconds would become 3600 seconds, but 300 seconds would stay 300 seconds.
