Unable to import module octodns.provider.googlecloud.GoogleCloudProvider

See original GitHub issue

If I remove the googlecloud provider, and just use YamlProvider, and DnsMadeEasyProvider, it works as expected.

CentOS 7, virtualenv, python2.7, installed today via pip, first time using octodns.

config/test.yaml:

---
providers:
  config:
    class: octodns.provider.yaml.YamlProvider
    directory: ./config
  googlecloud:
    class: octodns.provider.googlecloud.GoogleCloudProvider
    project: project1
    credentials_file: ~/.google_cloud_credentials_file.json
  dnsmadeeasy:
    class: octodns.provider.dnsmadeeasy.DnsMadeEasyProvider
    api_key: xxx
    secret_key: xxx
zones:
  testzone.com.:
    sources:
      - dnsmadeeasy
    targets:
      - config
      - googlecloud

This resolved it for me: pip install google-cloud-dns

Thanks @ross and @yzguy – That was indeed it, and your logic regarding the-pile-o-modules makes sense. Maybe in the Supported Providers table, it would make sense to add a column, which at a minimum mentions providers that require additional libraries, vs those that don’t. For bonus points, providing a link to that providers setup instructions could be helpful.

For the next newb that strolls through here, this is the full list of steps for me to setup a public GCE CentOS7 image with octodns for DNSME & google cloud dns:

sudo yum -y install python-pip python-devel python-setuptools
sudo pip install --upgrade pip virtualenv
virtualenv env
cd env
source bin/activate
pip install --upgrade google-cloud
pip install --upgrade octodns
Follow README instructions.

Thanks!
