DynuIPRefresher
A lightweight C++ application to setup a service for refreshing a dynamic IP to the Dynu servers. Dynu.com is a free DDns service and provides an API.
Installation
Download the latest Release at Release_Page. I'm providing executables for Debian/Ubuntu (.deb) and RHEL/Debian (.rpm). But you can still compile the code my your own (see build section).
Configuration
There is a configuration file /etc/dynuiprefresher.cfg
where you have to specify the DYNU API key (get it from their homepage), the domainid and your domain.
Furthermore, you can optionally specify a Telegram API key and a Chat ID if you want to be notfied when your local ip changes.
To enable and start the service:
systemctl enable dynuiprefresher.service
and systemctl start dynuiprefresher.service
Usage
First of all configure the right keys in the /etc/dynuiprefresher.cfg
or %appdata%\DynuIpRefresher\dynuiprefresher.cfg
config file.
Afterwards use the following options:
help page:
[-h] [--help] print this help page
[-v] [--version] print the software version
[-f] [--force] force refresh of ip
[-l] [--loop] infinite loop to refresh ip every five minutes
[-c] [--checkconfig] validate configuration
[-ip] [--currentip] get current global ip
[no argument] normal ip check and refresh
