# Gandi Dynamic DNS
|
|
|
|
Cron job to auto update a DNS record when WAN IP changes using Gandi Live DNS API on Debian GNU/Linux
|
|
|
|
## To install
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://gitlab.com/lab.8916100448256/gandi-dynamic-dns.git ./gandi-dynamic-dns
|
|
cd ./gandi-dynamic-dns
|
|
sudo bash ./install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then configure DNS record info and API key in file /etc/live-dns/live-dns.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
### /etc/cron.d/live-dns-update
|
|
Cron job definition to check for WAN IP change and call Live DNS API to update the DNS record if necessary. By default runs the check/update script 2 times per hour, at every hour past 12 and 42 minutes.
|
|
|
|
### /etc/live-dns/live-dns.conf
|
|
Configuration file for the check/update script
|
|
Needs to contains 3 environment variable definitions
|
|
+ DOMAIN="domain.tld" : Replace domain.tld with your domain name
|
|
+ RECORD="host" : Replace host with the sub domain you want to update when WAN IP changes
|
|
+ APIKEY="Your-API-Key" : Replace with you API key generated on the Gandi web interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### /usr/local/bin/live-dns-update.sh
|
|
This the script that is called by the cron job.
|
|
|
|
This script is based on the sample provided on Gandi GitHub : [mywanip.sh](https://github.com/Gandi/api-examples/blob/master/bash/livedns/mywanip.sh)
