Supports: - Installing globally as cli tool - Running as Docker container - Listing all DNS entries for one or more domains. - Updating the content of one or more DNS entries of one or more domains. - Running a service which updates content of one or more DNS entries of one or more domains to the public IPv4 and / or IPv6 address of the current machine (DDNS). ## Table of Contents - [Creating your private key](#creating-your-private-key) - [Installation](#installation) - [NPM](#npm) - [Docker Run](#docker-run) - [Docker Compose](#docker-compose) - [Docker Compose on Raspberry Pi](#docker-compose-on-raspberry-pi) - [CLI Documentation](#cli-documentation) - [Glossary](#glossary) - [Environment variables](#environment-variables) - [Commands](#commands) - [list-dns](#list-dns) - [update-dns](#update-dns) - [ddns-service](#ddns-service) # Creating your private key 1. Go to https://www.transip.nl/cp/account/api/ 2. Create a new Key Pair. Note: the 'Whitelisted IP' must not be checked if you want to use `ddns-service`. 3. Save the private key in a file, e.g. `private-key.pem`. ## Installation ### NPM 1. Install Node.js 18.x or higher ([Windows](https://nodejs.org/en/download/current/) | [Linux](https://github.com/nodesource/distributions#debinstall) | [OSx](https://nodejs.org/en/download/current/)). 2. `npm i -g transip-dns-cli` ### Docker Run Note: the Docker image is a multiarch image. So it will also work on Raspberry Pi's. ``` sudo docker run \ --name transip-dns-cli \ --rm \ marklagendijk/transip-dns-cli list-dns \ --username="myusername" \ --privateKey="$( Commands: list-dns List all DNS entries for one or more domains. update-dns Updates the content of one or more DNS entries of one or more domains. ddns-service Keeps updating the content of one or more DNS entries of one or more domains to the public ip address of the current machine..
