docker-no-ip (FORK)

This is a simple Docker container for running the No-IP2⁠ dynamic DNS update script. It will keep your domain.ddns.net DNS alias up-to-date as your home IP changes.

This docker image is available as a docker container.

I created this fork because the original version has a problem with loading environment variables. Original can be found here⁠ image.

Configuration

USERNAME username of your noip account
PASSWORD password of your noip account
DOMAINS A comma-delimited list of domains and/or groups you want to update.
INTERVAL Interval you want to update the domains (examples: 1d, 2h, 30m)

Volumes

/etc/localtime Needed so the container clock is running correctly
/config Location of the (generated) config file

Running modes

There are two modes of running this container. Check the example to find the one that is best suited for your situation.

Environment variables

sudo docker run 
    --name=noip -d
    -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime   
    -v /config/dir/path:/config 
    -e USERNAME=<username> 
    -e PASSWORD=<password> 
    -e DOMAINS=<domains> 
    -e INTERVAL=<interval> 
    uping/no-ip

Config files

The second mode is with a config file. To create a template config file, run:

sudo docker run 
    --name=noip -d 
    -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime 
    -v /config/dir/path:/config 
    uping/no-ip

When run for the first time, a file named noip.conf will be created in the config dir, and the container will exit. Edit this file, adding your username (email), password, domains, and update interval. Then rerun the command to start the container.

Warning

In both modes, two config files (no-ip2.generated.conf and no-ip2.generated.conf.breadcrumb) will be generated. Please do not edit these files, as they are used by the noip2 agent
