godaddy-dyndns is a DynDNS-like public IP auto-updater script for GoDaddy, written in Python.
The script uses ipify.org
to figure out the machine's public IP. It will only access GoDaddy if the IP has changed since the last successful script invocation. It logs all its activities to the file /config/godaddy-dyndns.log
and automatically rotates the log.
Based on a modified version of CodeCorrupt's script.
docker create --name=godaddy-dyndns \
-v <path to data>:/config \
-e PUID=<uid> -e PGID=<gid> \
-e TZ=<timezone> \

The parameters are split into two halves, separated by a colon, the left hand side representing the host and the right the container side. For example with a volume -v external:internal - what this shows is the volume mapping from internal to external of the container. So -v /mnt/app/config:/config would map /config from inside the container to be accessible from /mnt/app/config on the host's filesystem.
-v /config
- local path for godaddy-dyndns config files-e PUID
for UserID - see below for explanation-e PGID
for GroupID - see below for explanation-e TZ
for setting timezone information, eg Australia/MelbourneIt is based on alpine linux with s6 overlay, for shell access whilst the container is running do docker exec -it godaddy-dyndns /bin/bash
.
Sometimes when using data volumes (-v flags) permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container. We avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user PUID
and group PGID
. Ensure the data volume directory on the host is owned by the same user you specify and it will "just work".
In this instance PUID=1001
and PGID=1001
. To find yours use id user
as below:
$ id <dockeruser>
uid=1001(dockeruser) gid=1001(dockergroup) groups=1001(dockergroup)
docker logs -f godaddy-dyndns
