dynu-renew

A Python module to renew public IP address associated with a Dynu domain.

This Python module, through the "renew_domains_ip" function, retrieves the current public IP address, stores it in a local SQLite database, and communicates it to Dynu.

Quick Start

First you need to download the "dynu-renew" package, for example via pip:

pip install dynu-renew

At this point you need to create the "instance" folder:

mkdir instance

And create the "config.py" file inside, taking inspiration from what you can find inside the "configs" folder of this repo.

In the "DYNU_PASSWORD" field I recommend you enter the Dynu IP Update Password instead of the Dynu account access password, because the Dynu IP Update Password has limited privileges.

Finally, to start it via CLI simply send the command:

python -m dynu_renew

If the output is empty, then the IP renewal was successful, otherwise the error received from the Dynu API is returned.

I recommend you add scheduled execution of dynu-renew by adding it to the crontab, as follows:

crontab -e

Then inserting a new line like this:

*/5 * * * * python -m dynu_renew >> ~/dynu_renew.log 2>&1
