Simple DynDNS Update for Hetzner DNS API

Hetzner DNS Updater - DynDNS

A very simple Deno script to update Records of Hetzner DNS based on the x-real-ip Header.
So be sure to run the Service behind a HTTP-Proxy (ie Traefik) which:

• Handles SSL for you
• Overwrites the x-real-ip Header to match the clients IP

It's recommended to use absolute DNS-Records - thus with the trailing dot.

DNS-Updater Configuration

# config.yaml

# Hetzner API Token
apiToken: xxxxx

# Available records
records:
  # Record for home.example.com
  # A-Record is configured relative in the DNS Server (without trailing dot)
  # Attention: This is not recommended cause some dyndns clients try to resolve the configured hostname
  home:
    # Credentials that have to be configured in your dyndns client
    user: user
    pass: pass
    # ZoneID can be copy pasted from the URL in Hetzner DNS Console
    # Ie https://dns.hetzner.com/zone/zzzzz
    zone: example.com-ZoneID

  # Record for office.example.com
  # A-Record is configured absolute in the DNS Server (with trailing dot)
  office.example.com:
    user: user
    pass: pass
    zone: example.com-ZoneID

  # Another example
  mynas.fuu.bar:
    user: user
    pass: pass
    zone: fubar.bar-ZoneID
