ION-Update (Rust)

ION-Update rewritten into Rust

Keeps IONOS DNS A Records up to date with your current public ip.

Overview

Docker Conatiner built to keep IONOS DNS records up-to-date. Works off of a list of DNS Zones, all within the same IONOS tenant. Current Public IP is automatically pulled from the internet. IP Address is updated on container boot, and every 4hrs after.

Recommended to validate the IONOS provided keys, prior to using them in the conatianer.

The purpose of this container is to allow you to utilize a dynamic Public IP, as a static IP. Keeping DNS records updated with the correct IP to get back to your lab.

Requirements

• a Wildcard 'A' Record on the target DNS Zone
• IONOS Developer Public and Private Key. Note: You must contact IONOS support to initally enable the feature. IONOS Docs.
• a string of DNS Zones, seperated by a comma.

FAQ

Q). Can I set Custom Public IP?

A). No. Currently IP Address is only pulled from public endpoints.

Q). How do I debug Error "[1x2] Failed to Deserialize json into struct" ?

A). This error is generic, and typically happens when authentication or authorization to IONOS has failed. Please rerun the container with the Enviromental Variable LOG_LEVEL="debug". Test the API manually in apps like Postman can show more information as well. If you get any response other then "HTTP 200", please contact IONOS.

Q). Can I keep a sub-domain or non-wildcard record updated?

A). No. The architecture utilizes one wildcard record per DNS Zone.
