Allow easy update via ddclient by using common protocol #1

Open darkdragon-001 opened 2 years ago

darkdragon-001 commented 2 years ago

Most services use an interface similar to the one from DynDNS, namely HTTP GET parameters hostname and myip.

The most widely used client to update dynamic DNS configuration is ddclient. The protocols are defined via nic_*_update functions (e.g. nic_dyndns2_update).

Would be great if one could use ddclient with some existing protocol and just specify a custom server.

Hello @darkdragon-001

pretty cool idea, but currently I have a problem: I don't have any root Server anymore with a connected domain record for testing. If you have time you can create a PR and I will merge it.

Thank you for your help

Stefan

Unfortunately, I don't have a root server myself...

Since this should only involve the frontend, you could easily test it with debug output without changing the backend code :wink:
