Comment on Sharing my (real) first selfhosted project: OVH IP updater

Cool. I am currently using the OVH dyndns option and it is a bit annoying that you have to update each sub-domain individually and can’t just tell OVH to update all subdomains to the same new IP via a wildcard.

Is that something your script could do?

Also it seems like the OVH dyndns API currently only does either IPv4 or IPv6 but not both the same time.

Hi!

Thanks for your feedback. First of all, I’ve just dropped a new update that will create a subdomain if you specify one on the environment variables that does not exist. That was a cool feature I use a lot on previous Docker images I used with other providers.

I don’t know if that solves your problem (I think not), but I will be glad of hearing your issue. I don’t know if you want to put a single * or something like that in the field of subdomains to update, instead of writing all down (sub1, sub2, sub3, sub4, sub5).

Regarding IPv4 and IPv6, I’m working on implement IPv6 now, I want that to be part of the next release (within one month), as well as multi-arch images. Definitely, I will try to update both at the same time as you want.

Thanks again!

  It does solve my problem in the sense that right now I need to configure each subdomain individually both in the OVH web-ui and then a second time on my firewall for the dyndns update. With a few dozen subdomains that is both annoying and easy to mess up accidentally.
  
  If I can manage everything from env parameters in a single location that saves me a lot of hassle.
