How to Build a Mock Route53 DNS API in Python
Create a mock DNS API server in Python that simulates Route53 record lookups and updates using the standard library.
import json
from http.server import BaseHTTPRequestHandler, HTTPServer
from urllib.parse import urlparse, parse_qs
class DNSUpdateHandler(BaseHTTPRequestHandler):
records = {"example.com": "1.2.3.4"}

def mock_change_resource_record_sets():
"""Demonstrates Route53 change_resource_record_sets with a mock client."""
# Create a mock Route53 client
route53 = boto3.client('route53', region_name='us-east-1',
