# Easy Python3 Dynamic DNS
# Originally by Jed Smith <jed@jedsmith.org> 4/29/2009
# Modified by Ole Markus With <olemarkus@olemarkus.org>
# This code and associated documentation is released into the public domain.
#
# To use:
#
#   1. In the Linode DNS manager, edit your zone (must be master) and create
#      an A record for your home computer.  You can name it whatever you like;
#      I call mine 'foo'.  Fill in 0.0.0.0 for the IP.
#
#   2. Save it.
#
#   3. Edit the four configuration options below, following the directions for
#      each.  As this is a quick hack, it assumes everything goes right.
#
# Simply add your domain name and hostname here
#
DOMAIN="example.com"
HOSTNAME="foo"
#
# Your Linode API key.  You can generate this by going to your profile in the
# Linode manager.  It should be fairly long.
#
KEY = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"
#
# The URI of a Web service that returns your IP address as plaintext. 
#
# My personal one is ifconfig.me, but if you want your own, you can use the
# following lines of PHP.
#
#     <?php
#     header("Content-type: text/plain");
#     printf("%s", $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]);
#
GETIP = "http://ifconfig.me"
#
# If for some reason the API URI changes, or you wish to send requests to a
# different URI for debugging reasons, edit this.  {0} will be replaced with the
# API key set above, and & will be added automatically for parameters.
#
API = "https://api.linode.com/?api_key={0}&resultFormat=JSON"
#
# Comment or remove this line to indicate that you edited the options above.
#
exit("Did you edit the options?  vi this file open.")
#
# That's it!
#
# Now run LinodeDynDNS.py manually, or add it to cron, or whatever.  You can even have
# multiple copies of the script doing different zones.
#
# For automated processing, this script will always print EXACTLY one line, and
# will also communicate via a return code.  The return codes are:
#
#    0 - No need to update, A record matches my public IP
#    0 - Updated record
#    2 - Some kind of error or exception occurred
#
# The script will also output one line that starts with either OK or FAIL.  If
# an update was necessary, OK will have extra information after it.
#
# If you want to see responses for troubleshooting, set this:
#
DEBUG = False
