|
||
|
||
## 🚦 Getting Started
|
||
|
||
First copy the example configuration file into the real one.
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
cp config-example.json config.json
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Edit `config.json` and replace the values with your own.
|
||
|
||
### 🔑 Authentication methods
|
||
|
||
You can choose to use either the newer API tokens, or the traditional API keys
|
||
|
||
To generate a new API tokens, go to your [Cloudflare Profile](https://dash.cloudflare.com/profile/api-tokens) and create a token capable of **Edit DNS**. Then replace the value in
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
"authentication":
|
||
"api_token": "Your cloudflare API token, including the capability of **Edit DNS**"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Alternatively, you can use the traditional API keys by setting appropriate values for:
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
"authentication":
|
||
"api_key":
|
||
"api_key": "Your cloudflare API Key",
|
||
"account_email": "The email address you use to sign in to cloudflare",
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 📍 Enable or disable IPv4 or IPv6
|
||
|
||
Some ISP provided modems only allow port forwarding over IPv4 or IPv6. In this case, you would want to disable any interface not accessible via port forward.
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
"a": true,
|
||
"aaaa": true
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 🎛️ Other values explained
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
"zone_id": "The ID of the zone that will get the records. From your dashboard click into the zone. Under the overview tab, scroll down and the zone ID is listed in the right rail",
|
||
"subdomains": "Array of subdomains you want to update the A & where applicable, AAAA records. IMPORTANT! Only write subdomain name. Do not include the base domain name. (e.g. foo or an empty string to update the base domain)",
|
||
"proxied": "Defaults to false. Make it true if you want CDN/SSL benefits from cloudflare. This usually disables SSH)",
|
||
"ttl": "Defaults to 300 seconds. Longer TTLs speed up DNS lookups by increasing the chance of cached results, but a longer TTL also means that updates to your records take longer to go into effect. You can choose a TTL between 30 seconds and 1 day. For more information, see [Cloudflare's TTL documentation](https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/manage-dns-records/reference/ttl/)",
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## 📠 Hosting multiple subdomains on the same IP?
|
||
|
||
This script can be used to update multiple subdomains on the same IP address.
|
||
|
||
For example, if you have a domain `example.com` and you want to host additional subdomains at `foo.example.com` and `bar.example.com` on the same IP address, you can use this script to update the DNS records for all subdomains.
|
||
|
||
### ⚠️ Note
|
||
|
||
Please remove the comments after `//` in the below example. They are only there to explain the config.
|
||
|
||
Do not include the base domain name in your `subdomains` config. Do not use the [FQDN](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fully_qualified_domain_name).
|
||
|
||
### 👉 Example 🚀
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
{
|
||
"cloudflare": [
|
||
{
|
||
"authentication": {
|
||
"api_token": "api_token_here", // Either api_token or api_key
|
||
"api_key": {
|
||
"api_key": "api_key_here",
|
||
"account_email": "your_email_here"
|
||
}
|
||
},
|
||
"zone_id": "your_zone_id_here",
|
||
"subdomains": [
|
||
{
|
||
"name": "", // Root domain (example.com)
|
||
"proxied": true
|
||
},
|
||
{
|
||
"name": "foo", // (foo.example.com)
|
||
"proxied": true
|
||
},
|
||
{
|
||
"name": "bar", // (bar.example.com)
|
||
"proxied": true
|
||
}
|
||
]
|
||
}
|
||
],
|
||
"a": true,
|
||
"aaaa": true,
|
||
"purgeUnknownRecords": false,
|
||
"ttl": 300
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## 🌐 Hosting multiple domains (zones) on the same IP?
|
||
|
||
You can handle ddns for multiple domains (cloudflare zones) using the same docker container by duplicating your configs inside the `cloudflare: []` key within `config.json` like below:
|
||
|
||
### ⚠️ Note:
|
||
|
||
If you are using API Tokens, make sure the token used supports editing your zone ID.
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
{
|
||
"cloudflare": [
|
||
{
|
||
"authentication": {
|
||
"api_token": "api_token_here",
|
||
"api_key": {
|
||
"api_key": "api_key_here",
|
||
"account_email": "your_email_here"
|
||
}
|
||
},
|
||
"zone_id": "your_first_zone_id_here",
|
||
"subdomains": [
|
||
{
|
||
"name": "",
|
||
"proxied": false
|
||
},
|
||
{
|
||
"name": "remove_or_replace_with_your_subdomain",
|
||
"proxied": false
|
||
}
|
||
]
|
||
},
|
||
{
|
||
"authentication": {
|
||
"api_token": "api_token_here",
|
||
"api_key": {
|
||
"api_key": "api_key_here",
|
||
"account_email": "your_email_here"
|
||
}
|
||
},
|
||
"zone_id": "your_second_zone_id_here",
|
||
"subdomains": [
|
||
{
|
||
"name": "",
|
||
"proxied": false
|
||
},
|
||
{
|
||
"name": "remove_or_replace_with_your_subdomain",
|
||
"proxied": false
|
||
}
|
||
]
|
||
}
|
||
],
|
||
"a": true,
|
||
"aaaa": true,
|
||
"purgeUnknownRecords": false
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 🧹 Optional features
|
||
|
||
`purgeUnknownRecords` removes stale DNS records from Cloudflare. This is useful if you have a dynamic DNS record that you no longer want to use. If you have a dynamic DNS record that you no longer want to use, you can set `purgeUnknownRecords` to `true` and the script will remove the stale DNS record from Cloudflare.
|
||
|
||
## 🐳 Deploy with Docker Compose
|
||
|
||
Pre-compiled images are available via [the official docker container on DockerHub](https://hub.docker.com/r/timothyjmiller/cloudflare-ddns).
|
||
|
||
Modify the host file path of config.json inside the volumes section of docker-compose.yml.
|
||
|
||
```yml
|
||
version: '3.9'
|
||
services:
|
||
cloudflare-ddns:
|
||
image: timothyjmiller/cloudflare-ddns:latest
|
||
container_name: cloudflare-ddns
|
||
security_opt:
|
||
- no-new-privileges:true
|
||
network_mode: 'host'
|
||
environment:
|
||
- PUID=1000
|
||
- PGID=1000
|
||
volumes:
|
||
- /YOUR/PATH/HERE/config.json:/config.json
|
||
restart: unless-stopped
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### ⚠️ IPv6
|
||
|
||
Docker requires network_mode be set to host in order to access the IPv6 public address.
|
||
|

## 🐧 Deploy with Linux + Cron
|
||
|
||
### 🏃 Running (all distros)
|
||
|
||
This script requires Python 3.5+, which comes preinstalled on the latest version of Raspbian. Download/clone this repo and give permission to the project's bash script by running `chmod +x ./start-sync.sh`. Now you can execute `./start-sync.sh`, which will set up a virtualenv, pull in any dependencies, and fire the script.
|
||
|
||
1. Upload the cloudflare-ddns folder to your home directory /home/your_username_here/
|
||
|
||
2. Run the following code in terminal
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
crontab -e
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
3. Add the following lines to sync your DNS records every 15 minutes
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
*/15 * * * * /home/your_username_here/cloudflare-ddns/start-sync.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Building from source
|
||
|
||
Create a config.json file with your production credentials.
|
||
|
||
### 💖 Please Note
|
||
|
||
The optional `docker-build-all.sh` script requires Docker experimental support to be enabled.
|
||
|
||
Docker Hub has experimental support for multi-architecture builds. Their official blog post specifies easy instructions for building with [Mac and Windows versions of Docker Desktop](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/multi-arch/).
|
||
|
||
1. Choose build platform
|
||
|
||
- Multi-architecture (experimental) `docker-build-all.sh`
|
||
|
||
- Linux/amd64 by default `docker-build.sh`
|
||
|
||
2. Give your bash script permission to execute.
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo chmod +x ./docker-build.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo chmod +x ./docker-build-all.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
3. At project root, run the `docker-build.sh` script.
|
||
|
||
Recommended for local development
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
./docker-build.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Recommended for production
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
./docker-build-all.sh
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Run the locally compiled version
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
docker run -d timothyjmiller/cloudflare_ddns:latest
|
||
```
