DDNS Daemon

OVH DynHost self-hosted daemon. Multiple hosts supported!

How it works

It's fetching your IP address from ifconfig.co API then updating all your OVH DynHost hosts based on the configuration file.

Config

By default config.yml is expected to be in the same directory but you can customize it with --config-filepath param.

hosts:
    first_host:
        host: first.host.dynhost.ovh
        user: firstHostUsername
        pass: firstHostPassword
    second_host:
        host: second.host.dynhost.ovh
        user: secondHostUsername
        pass: secondHostPassword
    ...

Quick setup

Production

1. Download latest executable
2. Prepare yaml config file
3. Configure the daemon (eg. service - sample config below) or run it manually (eg. screen)

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

# reload daemon and check service status
systemctl daemon-reload
service ddns-daemon status

Development

Run it with or without Docker.

1. Clone the repository
2. Create .env file based on .env.dist
