A simple Dynamic DNS source for octoDNS.

Supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Generally useful when you have a zone with staticly configured records but would also like to include a dynamic record, e.g. for your office or home on a non-fixed IP address.

By default it uses http://api.ident.me/ to find the public address of the machine running the sync.

The following config will combine the records in ./config/example.com.yaml and the dynamically looked up address at dynamic.example.com. creating both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

providers: config: class: octodns.provider.yaml.YamlProvider directory: ./config dynamic: class: octodns_ddns.DdnsSource route53: class: octodns.provider.route53.Route53Provider access_key_id: env/AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID secret_access_key: env/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY zones: example.com.: sources: - config - dynamic # will add dynamic.example.com. targets: - route53 

You can configure it to only do A or AAAA by adding a types param to the provider config.

 dynamic: class: octodns_ddns.DdnsSource types: - A

If you would like to use an alternate provider for looking up your address you can configure urls with a and/or aaaa with urls that return the address as the content of the response.

 dynamic: class: octodns_ddns.DdnsSource urls: A: https://v4.ident.me/ AAAA: https://v6.ident.me/
