DDNS client for aliyun

Aliyun DDNS Client

Preface

Forked from rfancn/aliyun-ddns-client. But seems the author seems does not want to accept PRs, so this repo will be independent from the original one.

Usage

Prepare DDNS

Required options need to be set in /etc/ddns.conf:

• access_id
• access_key
• domain
• sub_domain

Optional options:

• type
• debug

[DEFAULT]
# access id obtains from aliyun
access_id=
# access key obtains from aliyun
access_key=
# it is not used at this moment, you can just ignore it
interval=600
# turn on debug mode or not
debug=true

[DomainRecord1]
# domain name, like google.com
domain=
# subdomain name, like www, blog, bbs, *, @, ...
sub_domain=
# resolve type, 'A', 'AAAA'..., currently it only supports 'A'
type=A

[feature_public_ip_from_nic]
enable=false
interface=eth0

Run with docker

docker run -it --rm -v $YOUR_CONF_FILE_PATH:/etc/ddns.conf tsingjyujing/aliyun-ddns-client

Install from PIP

You can install/update the command line tool from PIP:

pip3 install -U aliyun-ddns-client
# You can also install from github if you want
pip3 install -U git+https://github.com/TsingJyujing/aliyun-ddns-client.git

Save your config file to $(pwd)/ddns.conf or /etc/ddns.conf, and run aliyun-ddns directly.

Limitations

This version of DDNS client only supports auto updating 'A' type DomainRecord with IPV4 address.

Other types are not supported because they need following value format other than IP address:

• 'NS', 'MX', 'CNAME' types DomainRecord need domain name format value
• 'AAAA' type DomainRecord need IPV6 address format value
• 'SRV' type DomainRecord need name.protocal format value
• 'Explicit URL' and 'Implicit URL' need URL format value
