# simpleddns

Very simple DDNS client with support for

- Linode, DigitalOcean, and AWS Route 53 providers.
- Allows obtaining IP address via any shell command.
- Customize TTL, API call interval & timeout.
- Multiple domains.

Run `install.sh` to install.
Then run `simpleddns --setup` to create a configuration interactively.
Lastly run `simpleddns` to start the DDNS client.
Currently only Unixy platforms are supported (i.e. not Windows, but maybe WSL or MinGW or something).


## Alternatives

This particular set of features is somewhat unique.
But there are other DDNS clients out there:

- [godns](https://github.com/TimothyYe/godns)
- [ddclient](https://github.com/ddclient/ddclient)


## Example systemd service

(This assumes a user `simpleddns` has installed the program.)
