Node SDK support for REST APIs in Managing Records

[daniel]

I need to programmatically add / update / delete CNAME records.

There are 2 SDKs available for Cloud DNS.

Option A. @google-cloud/dns (https://github.com/googleapis/nodejs-dns)

Option B. @googleapis/dns (https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-nodejs-client/tree/main/src/apis/dns)

According to the docs, Option B is in "maintenance mode" and recommends to use Option A for new applications.

However, I am observing that Option B (@googleapis/dns) is limited in the methods that it exposes. There doesn't seem to be any way to update an existing record. Only 2 methods are exposed - create and delete.

https://github.com/googleapis/nodejs-dns/blob/main/src/change.ts#L23

Option A (which is considered legacy), provides full-fledged CRUD methods, including patch/update.

https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-nodejs-client/blob/main/src/apis/dns/v1.ts#L4753

The only way to programmatically manage the record seems to be:

1) Use the legacy sdk @googleapis/dns or,

2) Make direct HTTP requests to REST endpoints (https://cloud.google.com/dns/docs/reference/v1/resourceRecordSets)

Is there any way in which I can manage records via the @google-cloud/dns client library? I want to also make updates to the record. It doesn't seem sensible to DELETE and ADD new records when you can easily PATCH.

Many thanks.
