Digital Ocean Dynamic DNS

A small nodejs tool that dynamically updates a DNS record on Digital Ocean based on your public ip.

Useful for when you have services running behind a NAT with a dynamic public IP.

Usage

Set your configuration using the specified env vars or using the config.js file:

DOMAIN='root.domain.i.want.to.check'
RECORD='record.to.insert'
DO_TOKEN='Your Digital Ocean personal access token'

Using Docker

If you have docker and bash it's as easy as:

DO_TOKEN="123456789" DOMAIN="jgantunes.com" RECORD="test" RUN=1 ./build.sh

This will ensure an A record is created for test under your jgantunes.com domain resource.

If you only have docker just run the appropriate docker setup with the provided Dockerfile.
