## Installation
While this project is intended to be ran as a Docker container, it can also be ran on the host directly.
This container runs until terminated. It is not a cron job.
### Using a Pre-built Container
This project is available on the GitHub Container Registry.
```shell
docker pull git.home.timatlee.com/timatlee/cloudflare-ddns:latest
```
### Building the Container Yourself
There are no special requirements when building this container. Simply build with:
```shell
docker build -t git.home.timatlee.com/timatlee/cloudflare-ddns:latest .
docker push git.home.timatlee.com/timatlee/cloudflare-ddns:latest
```
#### Hosting
I am hosting this in my own Gitea repository. We can push this with:
```shell
docker login git.home.timatlee.com
username: timatlee
password: // Gitea PAT token
```
### Running on the Host
Python > 3.12 is required. This likely requires a virtualenv.
```shell
python -m venv .env
.env\scripts\activate.ps1
pip install -r requirements.txt
python -m cloudflare_ddns --token ... -d .. domain.example.com
```
In order to run this project on the host, you'll need Python > 3.8, and an environment containing
the dependencies listed in [`requirements.txt`](requirements.txt).
The project can then by launched by running the `cloudflare_ddns` module, usually using `python -m cloudflare_ddns`.
## Configuration
This project will accept parameters through environment variables or command line argument.
Feel free to select the method fitting your setup the best!
### Getting a Cloudflare Token
The first step will be to create an API token with the following scopes:
- `Zone:Read`
- `DNS:Edit`
### Supported Options
We currently support following settings:
| Parameter Name | Short Command Line Option | Long Command Line Option | Environment Variable | Description |
|----------------------------|---------------------------|--------------------------|----------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Token [mandatory] | `-k` | `--token` | `CF_DDNS_TOKEN` | Your Cloudflare token created in the previous step. |
| Delay [default: 5 minutes] | `-d` | `--delay` | `CF_DDNS_DELAY` | The time to wait between each update. It is parsed per [`strftime`](https://strftime.org/). |
The domains to update will have to either be passed as command line arguments after the options
or with a space separated `CF_DDNS_DOMAINS` environment variable.
Each domain can be preceded by the record type, either A or AAAA, followed by a colon.
Otherwise any found A or AAAA record pointing to this domain found will be used.
