Advanced DDNS client with daemonization (as systemd service), or one-shot running capability and password hashing option for ddnsmapi.
When the TeleDDNS runs in daemonized mode it listens for Netlink messages and pools the updates to minimize both the DDNS convergence time and resource usage.
curl -s -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tmshlvck/teleddns/master/deploy.sh | bash -s <URL> <domainname>"
Where URL is the API URL including the username and password in https://user:pass@host.domain.tld/ddns/update form and domainname is the FQDN of the host (example: testhost.d.telephant.eu).
- Fairly recent Linux - say Ubuntu 20.04 or similar
- Python 3.9+
- systemd
- pip
Install required packages:
sudo apt-get install python3-pip python3-poetry git
Clone this repo, build and install the software:
git clone https://github.com/tmshlvck/teleddns.git
cd teleddns
poetry build
sudo pip install dist/teleddns-*.whl
Create configuration file (modify the following example):
sudo mkdir /etc/teleddns/
sudo bash -c 'cat <<EOF >/etc/teleddns/teleddns.yaml
---
debug: False
ddns_url: 'https://USERNAME:PASSWORD@ddns-server.domain.tld/ddns/update'
hostname: 'myhostname.ddns.domain.tld'
enable_ipv6: True
enable_ipv4: False
interfaces:
- '*'
EOF'
Test the client:
teleddns -d
The exected output should look like this:
[th@hroch ~]$ teleddns -d
