TXT lookup middleware

Why ? to be able to remap without using the CNAME record

How ?

  • Proposed dns entry :

('_swift-remap.' + subdomain) IN TXT "account={ACCOUNT_NAME} container={CONTAINER_NAME}"

-> https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1464


proposed implementations :

create a dedicated middleware : txt_lookup.py ? rename cname_lookup.py to dns_lookup.py and add the txt lookup feature ?
