Tip: You can follow this [issue](https://github.com/TimothyYe/godns/issues/76) to view the current status of DDNS for root domains.
## Supported Platforms
- Linux
- MacOS
- ARM Linux (Raspberry Pi, etc.)
- Windows
- MIPS32 platform
To compile binaries for MIPS (mips or mipsle), run:
```bash
GOOS=linux GOARCH=mips/mipsle GOMIPS=softfloat go build -a
```
The binary can run on routers as well.
## Pre-conditions
To use GoDNS, it is assumed:
- You registered (now own) a domain
- Domain was delegated to a supported [DNS provider](#supported-dns-providers) (i.e. it has nameserver `NS` records pointing at a supported provider)
Alternatively, you can sign in to [DuckDNS](https://www.duckdns.org) (with a social account) and get a subdomain on the duckdns.org domain for free.
## Installation
Build GoDNS by running (from the root of the repository):
```bash
cd cmd/godns # go to the GoDNS directory
go mod download # get dependencies
go build # build
```
You can also download a compiled binary from the [releases](https://github.com/TimothyYe/godns/releases).
## Usage
Print usage/help by running:
```bash
$ ./godns -h
Usage of ./godns:
-c string
Specify a config file (default "./config.json")
-h Show help
```
## Configuration
### Overview
- Make a copy of [config_sample.json](configs/config_sample.json) and name it as `config.json`, or make a copy of [config_sample.yaml](configs/config_sample.yaml) and name it as `config.yaml`.
- Configure your provider, domain/subdomain info, credentials, etc.
- Configure a notification medium (e.g. SMTP to receive emails) to get notified when your IP address changes
- Place the file in the same directory of GoDNS or use the `-c=path/to/your/file.json` option
### Configuration file format
GoDNS supports 2 different configuration file formats:
- JSON
- YAML
By default, GoDNS uses `JSON` config file. However, you can specify to use the `YAML` format via: `./godns -c /path/to/config.yaml`
### Dynamic loading of configuration
GoDNS supports dynamic loading of configuration. If you modify the configuration file, GoDNS will automatically reload the configuration and apply the changes.
### Configuration properties
- `provider` — One of the [supported provider to use](#supported-dns-providers): `Cloudflare`, `Google`, `DNSPod`, `AliDNS`, `HE`, `DuckDNS` or `Dreamhost`.
- `email` — Email or account name of the DNS provider.
- `password` — Password of the DNS provider.
- `login_token` — API token of the DNS provider.
- `domains` — Domains list, with your sub domains.
- `ip_urls` — A URL array for fetching one's public IPv4 address.
- `ipv6_urls` — A URL array for fetching one's public IPv6 address.
- `ip_type` — Switch deciding if IPv4 or IPv6 should be used (when [supported](#supported-dns-providers)). Available values: `IPv4` or `IPv6`.
- `interval` — How often (in seconds) the public IP should be updated.
- `socks5_proxy` — Socks5 proxy server.
- `resolver` — Address of a public DNS server to use. For instance to use [Google's public DNS](https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using), you can set `8.8.8.8` when using GoDNS in IPv4 mode or `2001:4860:4860::8888` in IPv6 mode.
- `skip_ssl_verify` - Skip verification of ssl certificates for https requests.
### Update root domain
By simply putting `@` into `sub_domains`, for example:
```json
"domains": [{
"domain_name": "example.com",
"sub_domains": ["@"]
}]
```
### Configuration examples
#### Cloudflare
For Cloudflare, you need to provide the email & Global API Key as password (or to use the API token) and config all the domains & subdomains.

Provider configuration
Add a new "A record" and make sure that "Enable entry for dynamic dns" is checked:
Fill in your own DDNS key or generate a random DDNS key for this new created "A record":
Remember the DDNS key and set it in the `password` property in the configuration file.
**NOTICE**: If you have multiple domains or subdomains, make sure their DDNS key are the same.
#### Scaleway
For Scaleway, you need to provide an API Secret Key as the `login_token` ([How to generate an API key](https://www.scaleway.com/en/docs/generate-api-keys/)), and configure the domains and subdomains. `domain_name` should equal a DNS zone, or the root domain in Scaleway. TTL for the DNS records will be set to the `interval` value. Make sure `A` or `AAAA` records exist for the relevant sub domains, these can be set up in the [Scaleway console](https://www.scaleway.com/en/docs/scaleway-dns/#-Managing-Records).
Example
```json
{
"provider": "Scaleway",
"login_token": "API Secret Key",
"domains": [{
"domain_name": "example.com",
"sub_domains": ["www","@"]
},{
"domain_name": "samplednszone.example.com",
"sub_domains": ["www","test"]
}
],
"resolver": "8.8.8.8",
"ip_urls": ["https://api.ip.sb/ip"],
"ip_type": "IPv4",
"interval": 300
}
```
#### Linode
To authenticate with the Linode API you will need to provide a Personal Access Token with "Read/Write" access on the "Domain" scope. Linode has [a help page about creating access tokens](https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/getting-started-with-the-linode-api/). Pass this token into the `login_token` field of the config file.
The `domain_name` field of the config file must be the name of an existing Domain managed by Linode. Linode has [a help page about adding domains](https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/dns-manager/). The GoDNS Linode handler will not create domains automatically, but will create subdomains automatically.
The GoDNS Linode handler currently uses a fixed TTL of 30 seconds for Linode DNS records.
Example
```json
{
"provider": "Linode",
"login_token": ${PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN},
"domains": [{
"domain_name": "example.com",
"sub_domains": ["www","@"]
},{
"domain_name": "samplednszone.example.com",
"sub_domains": ["www","test"]
}
],
"resolver": "8.8.8.8",
"ip_urls": ["https://api.ip.sb/ip"],
"ip_type": "IPv4",
"interval": 300
}
```

}
```
#### IONOS
This is for IONOS Hosting Services, **not** IONOS Cloud.
You'll need to [sign up for API Access to Hosting Services](https://my.ionos.com/shop/product/ionos-api), then create an [API Key](https://developer.hosting.ionos.com/keys).
You can find a full guide in the [IONOS API Documentation](https://developer.hosting.ionos.com/docs/getstarted).
**Note**: The API-Key used by GoDNS must follow the form `publicprefix.secret` as described in the aforementioned documentation.
Example
```yaml
provider: IONOS
login_token: publicprefix.secret
domains:
- domain_name: example.com
sub_domains:
- somesubdomain
- anothersubdomain
resolver: 1.1.1.1
ip_urls:
- https://api.ipify.org
ip_type: IPv4
interval: 300
socks5_proxy: ""
```
### Notifications
GoDNS can send a notification each time the IP changes.
#### Email
Emails are sent over [SMTP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Mail_Transfer_Protocol). Update your configuration with the following snippet:
```json
"notify": {
"mail": {
"enabled": true,
"smtp_server": "smtp.example.com",
"smtp_username": "user",
"smtp_password": "password",
"smtp_port": 25,
"send_from": "[email protected]"
"send_to": "[email protected]"
}
}
```
Each time the IP changes, you will receive an email like that:
#### Telegram
To receive a [Telegram](https://telegram.org/) message each time the IP changes, update your configuration with the following snippet:
```json
"notify": {
"telegram": {
"enabled": true,
"bot_api_key": "11111:aaaa-bbbb",
"chat_id": "-123456",
"message_template": "Domain *{{ .Domain }}* updated to %0A{{ .CurrentIP }}",
"use_proxy": false
},
}
```
The `message_template` property supports [markdown](https://www.markdownguide.org). New lines needs to be escaped with `%0A`.
#### Slack
To receive a [Slack](https://slack.com) message each time the IP changes, update your configuration with the following snippet:
```json
"notify": {
"slack": {
"enabled": true,
"bot_api_token": "xoxb-xxx",
"channel": "your_channel",
"message_template": "Domain *{{ .Domain }}* updated to \n{{ .CurrentIP }}",
"use_proxy": false
},
}
```
The `message_template` property supports [markdown](https://www.markdownguide.org). New lines needs to be escaped with `\n`.
#### Discord
To receive a [Discord](https://discord.gg) message each time the IP changes, update your configuration with the following snippit:
```json
"notify": {
"discord": {
"enabled": true,
"bot_api_token": "discord_bot_token",
"channel": "your_channel",
"message_template": "(Optional) Domain *{{ .Domain }}* updated to \n{{ .CurrentIP }}",
}
}
```
#### Pushover
To receive a [Pushover](https://pushover.net/) message each time the IP changes, update your configuration with the following snippet:
```json
"notify": {
"pushover": {
"enabled": true,
"token": "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234",
"user": "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234",
"message_template": "",
"device": "",
"title": "",
"priority": 0,
"html": 1
}
}
```
The `message_template` property supports [html](https://pushover.net/api#html) if the `html` parameter is `1`. If it is left empty a default message will be used.
If the `device` and `title` parameters are left empty, Pushover will choose defaults [see](https://pushover.net/api#messages). More details on the priority parameter
can be found on the Pushover [API description](https://pushover.net/api#priority).
### Webhook
Webhook is another feature that GoDNS provides to deliver notifications to the other applications while the IP is changed. GoDNS delivers a notification to the target URL via an HTTP `GET` or `POST` request.
The configuration section `webhook` is used for customizing the webhook request. In general, there are 2 fields used for the webhook request:
> - `url`: The target URL for sending webhook request.
> - `request_body`: The content for sending `POST` request, if this field is empty, a HTTP GET request will be sent instead of the HTTP POST request.
Available variables:
> - `Domain`: The current domain.
> - `IP`: The new IP address.
> - `IPType`: The type of the IP: `IPV4` or `IPV6`.
#### Webhook with HTTP GET reqeust
```json
"webhook": {
"enabled": true,
"url": "http://localhost:5000/api/v1/send?domain={{.Domain}}&ip={{.CurrentIP}}&ip_type={{.IPType}}",
"request_body": ""
}
```
For this example, a webhook with query string parameters will be sent to the target URL:
```
http://localhost:5000/api/v1/send?domain=ddns.example.com&ip=192.168.1.1&ip_type=IPV4
```
#### Webhook with HTTP POST request
```json
"webhook": {
"enabled": true,
"url": "http://localhost:5000/api/v1/send",
"request_body": "{ \"domain\": \"{{.Domain}}\", \"ip\": \"{{.CurrentIP}}\", \"ip_type\": \"{{.IPType}}\" }"
}
```
For this example, a webhook will be triggered when the IP changes, the target URL `http://localhost:5000/api/v1/send` will receive an `HTTP POST` request with request body:
```json
{ "domain": "ddns.example.com", "ip": "192.168.1.1", "ip_type": "IPV4" }
```
### Miscellaneous topics
#### IPv6 support
Most of the [providers](#supported-dns-providers) support IPv6.
To enable the `IPv6` support of GoDNS, there are two solutions to choose from:
1. Use an online service to lookup the external IPv6
For that:
- Set the `ip_type` as `IPv6`, and make sure the `ipv6_urls` is configured
- Create an `AAAA` record instead of an `A` record in your DNS provider
Configuration example
```json
{
"domains": [
{
"domain_name": "example.com",
"sub_domains": ["ipv6"]
}
],
"resolver": "2001:4860:4860::8888",
"ipv6_urls": ["https://api-ipv6.ip.sb/ip"],
"ip_type": "IPv6"
}
```
2. Let GoDNS find the IPv6 of the network interface of the machine it is running on (more on that [later](#network-interface-ip-address)).
For this to happen, just leave `ip_urls` and `ipv6_urls` empty.
Note that the network interface must be configured with an IPv6 for this to work.
#### Network interface IP address
For some reasons if you want to get the IP address associated to a network interface (instead of performing an online lookup), you can specify it in the configuration file this way:
```json
"ip_urls": [""],
"ip_interface": "interface-name",
```
With `interface-name` replaced by the name of the network interface, e.g. `eth0` on Linux or `Local Area Connection` on Windows.
Note: If `ip_urls` is also specified, it will be used to perform an online lookup first and the network interface IP will be used as a fallback in case of failure.
#### SOCKS5 proxy support
You can make all remote calls go through a [SOCKS5 proxy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOCKS#SOCKS5) by specifying it in the configuration file this way:
```json
"socks5_proxy": "127.0.0.1:7070"
"use_proxy": true
```
#### Display debug info
To display debug info, set `debug_info` as `true` to enable this feature. By default, the debug info is disabled.
```json
"debug_info": true,
```
#### Multiple API URLs
GoDNS supports to fetch the public IP from multiple URLs via a simple round-robin algorithm. If the first URL fails, it will try the next one until it succeeds. Here is an example of the configuration:
```json
"ip_urls": [
"https://api.ipify.org",
"https://myip.biturl.top",
"https://api-ipv4.ip.sb/ip"
],
```

## Web Panel
Starting from version 3.1.0, GoDNS provides a web panel to manage the configuration and monitor the status of the domains. The web UI is disabled by default. To enable it, just enable the `web_panel` in the configuration file.
```json
"web_panel": {
"enabled": true,
"addr": "0.0.0.0:9000",
"username": "admin",
"password": "123456"
}
```
After enabling the web panel, you can visit `http://localhost:9000` to manage the configuration and monitor the status of the domains.
## Running GoDNS
There are a few ways to run GoDNS.
### Manually
Note: make sure to set the `run_once` parameter in your config file so the program will quit after the first run (the default is `false`).
Can be added to `cron` or attached to other events on your system.
```json
{
"...": "...",
"run_once": true
}
```
Then run
```bash
./godns
```
### As a manual daemon
```bash
nohup ./godns &
```
Note: when the program stops, it will not be restarted.
### As a managed daemon (with upstart)
1. Install `upstart` first (if not available already)
2. Copy `./config/upstart/godns.conf` to `/etc/init` (and tweak it to your needs)
3. Start the service:
```bash
sudo start godns
```
### As a managed daemon (with systemd)
1. Install `systemd` first (it not available already)
2. Copy `./config/systemd/godns.service` to `/lib/systemd/system` (and tweak it to your needs)
3. Start the service:
```bash
sudo systemctl enable godns
sudo systemctl start godns
```
### As a Docker container
Available docker registries:
-
-
Visit to fetch the latest docker image. The `-p 9000:9000` option is used to expose the web panel.
With `/path/to/config.json` as your local configuration file, run:
```bash
docker run \
-d --name godns --restart=always \
-v /path/to/config.json:/config.json \
-p 9000:9000 \
timothyye/godns:latest
```
To run it with a `YAML` config file:
```bash
docker run \
-d --name godns \
-e CONFIG=/config.yaml \
--restart=always \
-v /path/to/config.yaml:/config.yaml \
-p 9000:9000 \
timothyye/godns:latest
```
### As a Windows service
1. Download the latest version of [NSSM](https://nssm.cc/download)
2. In an administrative prompt, from the folder where NSSM was downloaded, e.g. `C:\Downloads\nssm\` **win64**, run:
```
nssm install YOURSERVICENAME
```
3. Follow the interface to configure the service. In the "Application" tab just indicate where the `godns.exe` file is. Optionally you can also define a description on the "Details" tab and define a log file on the "I/O" tab. Finish by clicking on the "Install service" button.
4. The service will now start along Windows.
Note: you can uninstall the service by running:
```
nssm remove YOURSERVICENAME
```
