COREDNS-IMPORT(7)		CoreDNS	Plugins		     COREDNS-IMPORT(7)

NAME
       import -	includes files or references snippets from a Corefile.

DESCRIPTION
       The import plugin can be	used to	include	files into the main configura-
       tion. Another use is to reference predefined snippets. Both can help to
       avoid some duplication.

       This  is	 a unique plugin in that import	can appear outside of a	server
       block. In other words, it can appear at the top of a Corefile where  an
       address would normally be.

SYNTAX
	      import PATTERN

       •   PATTERN  is	the  file, glob	pattern	(*) or snippet to include. Its
	   contents will replace this line, as if  that	 file's	 contents  ap-
	   peared here to begin	with.

FILES
       You  can	use import to include a	file or	files. This file's location is
       relative	to the Corefile's location. It is an error if a	specific  file
       cannot be found,	but an empty glob pattern is not an error.

SNIPPETS
       You can define snippets to be reused later in your Corefile by defining
       a block with a single-token label surrounded by parentheses:

	      (mysnippet) {
		  ...
	      }

       Then you	can invoke the snippet with import:

	      import mysnippet

EXAMPLES
       Import a	shared configuration:

	      .	{
		 import	config/common.conf
	      }

       Where config/common.conf	contains:

	      prometheus
	      errors
	      log

       This imports files found	in the zones directory:

	      import ../zones/*
