Get all A Records from route 53 using CLI and export to CSV

Question

I've been trying to get all the listed A records on our system due to us having a mismatch between our instances and the number of A records we have. 
I have asked in numerous places and look online and it seems to be quite difficult to do.
I either get only a partial listing or a listing with out extraneous information.

What would be an aws cli command to get only a records

Answer

There isnt a way to do this natively

You can try this cli command (from [here](https://gist.github.com/porjo/7447463ce0d14f212e58f9eabad77090))

`aws route53 list-resource-record-sets --hosted-zone-id "/hostedzone/Z#################" | jq -r '.ResourceRecordSets[] | [.Name, .Type, (.ResourceRecords[]? | .Value), .AliasTarget.DNSName?] | @csv'`

You may have issues if there are more than 1000 record sets as you will hit the pagination limit.

You can also try a third party too like [cli53](https://github.com/barnybug/cli53) that can export the zone to BIND format
