Cloudflare API v4 Dynamic DNS Update in Bash

README.md

Cloudflare DDNS bash client with systemd

This is a bash script to act as a Cloudflare DDNS client, useful replacement for ddclient.

Look out!

A newer version is available!

This gist will no longer update, instead please go to https://github.com/lifehome/systemd-cfddns for more updated versions.

How to use?

1. Put the cfupdater files to /usr/local/bin

• If you are using IPv4 for A record, append -v4 to cfupdater in the following systemd service unit.
• If you are using IPv6 for AAAA record, append -v6 to cfupdater in the following systemd service unit.
• If you prefer a dual-stack record, append -dualstack to cfupdater in the following systemd service unit.

2. chmod +x /usr/local/bin/cfupdater
3. Create a systemd service unit at /etc/systemd/system/, the cfupdate.service is shown as an example.
4. Create a systemd timer unit at the same location of the service unit, the cfupdate.timer is shown as an example.
5. sudo systemctl enable cfupdate.timer
6. sudo systemctl start cfupdate.timer

Note

The default cfupdate.timer is set to execute the script every minute.
Please keep in mind not to spam the API or you will be rate limited.

The dual-stack script has NOT been tested, use with caution. The dual-stack script will always sync upon either IPv4 or IPv6 has changed.

A quote from Cloudflare FAQ:

All calls through the Cloudflare Client API are rate-limited to 1200 every 5 minutes.

Hi,
The https://v4.ifconfig.co/ip return incorrect data. I changed to http://ipv4.icanhazip.com/ and it's working fine.

@netzzo Thanks and updated!

Works perfectly.

I like your script and I modified it a little for IPv6.
I'm new to IPv6 (forced by my ISP) and I may have some errors in judgement but the modified script works with both IPv6 and IPv4 records of the same domain
https://gist.github.com/badrianiulian/7abf81d4c814d699091b8beff439ad34#file-cfupdater

Hello. Can you change script to work with many sub domains like s1.example.com, s2.example.com, s3.example.com and so on?

@Noxturnix Thanks for the compliment! 😆

@badrianiulian Thanks! I have made a script for dual stack record 👍 And it looks good for the dual stack script u modified 😄

@ofit My idea is to update one entry at a time, so either you could CNAME all necessary subdomain to a single A record, or create multiple copies of bash script and systemd units. You may reference the following idea for the DNS management:

;; CNAME Records
sub1.example.org.	1	IN	CNAME	ddns.example.org.
sub2.example.org.	1	IN	CNAME	ddns.example.org.

;; A Records (IPv4 addresses)
ddns.example.org.	1	IN	A	1.2.3.4

I've updated the script using @ofit 's ideea ... to update multiple sub domains like s1.example.com, s2.example.com, s3.example.com ... but also to a more programmer like idea... using bash functions and arrays
Also there was a bug when updating proxied IP's... default settings set by the API is false ... so I had to read besides "id", those optional settings: "proxiable","proxied" and "ttl". After that I added them to the update string.
Using those options, now the IP stays behind Cloudflare's IP's (like I wanted them to be)

Great work on this, thank you. I had to make a few minor edits to the cfupdater-dualstack file to make it work. I only tested it standalone (.sh), no systemd. Prior to the changes below, I was getting a bash error for line 33, and a "7001" error from Cloudflare, "Method PUT not available for that URI."

Line 12 should read ip6=$(curl -s https://ipv6.icanhazip.com/) instead of ip6=$(curl -s https://ipv46.icanhazip.com/)

• Wrong URL (typo)

Line 33 should read if [[ $ip4 == $old_ip4 && $ip6 == $old_ip6 ]]; then instead of if [ $ip4 == $old_ip4 && $ip6 == $old_ip6 ]; then

• Double brackets required for compound "if"

Line 43 should read update4=$(curl -s -X PUT "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$zone_identifier/dns_records/$record4_identifier" -H "X-Auth-Email: $auth_email" -H "X-Auth-Key: $auth_key" -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data "{\"id\":\"$zone_identifier\",\"type\":\"A\",\"proxied\":false,\"name\":\"$record_name\",\"content\":\"$ip4\"}")

• Wrong variable name (correct one is $record4_identifier not $record_identifier4)

Line 44 should read update6=$(curl -s -X PUT "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$zone_identifier/dns_records/$record6_identifier" -H "X-Auth-Email: $auth_email" -H "X-Auth-Key: $auth_key" -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data "{\"id\":\"$zone_identifier\",\"type\":\"AAAA\",\"proxied\":false,\"name\":\"$record_name\",\"content\":\"$ip6\"}")

Hello @mistermatt2u, thanks for pointing out the mistakes, I have corrected them and tested the script out. Despite it's kinda working, I would say more tests would be needed.

Have updated the systemd unit files, please run sudo systemctl daemon-reload and step 5 and 6 in tutorial if you have updated the systemd files.

{"success":false,"errors":[{"code":7001,"message":"Method PUT not available for that URI."}],"messages":[],"result":null}

still looking on what can I do to fix that. ipv4 only.

edit: resolved after a reboot. probably something borked left when I update some packages.

Hi,
Just wondering how to set this up for multiple domain ?

Hi @anazhd, glad things worked out :D Lemme know if you have trouble using the script!

@wsokc, please refer to the above conversation, as this script only support (at most) dual-stack DNS record update, by modifying the record you will need array/iterate on the record variable, as well as loop over the update functions.

update4=$(curl -s -X PUT "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$zone_identifier/dns_records/$record4_identifier" -H "X-Auth-Email: $auth_email" -H "X-Auth-Key: $auth_key" -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data "{\"id\":\"$zone_identifier\",\"type\":\"A\",\"proxied\":false,\"name\":\"$record_name\",\"content\":\"$ip4\",\"ttl\":120}")
update6=$(curl -s -X PUT "https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/$zone_identifier/dns_records/$record6_identifier" -H "X-Auth-Email: $auth_email" -H "X-Auth-Key: $auth_key" -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data "{\"id\":\"$zone_identifier\",\"type\":\"AAAA\",\"proxied\":false,\"name\":\"$record_name\",\"content\":\"$ip6\",\"ttl\":120}")

This will be for lowest TTL

Updated the v4 script to accept an array of domains or subdomains and loop through them, updating each as needed. I updated some of the script echoes as well to be more descriptive with the new loop.

Thanks @lifehome!

I edited and made this gist.

Hope it helps somebody.

cfupdater-v4
has this line:
echo "[Cloudflare DDNS] IPv4 context '$ip4' has been synced to Cloudflare.";;
but ip4 is never defined!

I would recommend running the scripts trough this site:
https://www.shellcheck.net

@BoKKeR Sorry for the typo, it has been corrected.

Seems i get a good answer from CF but the ip's are not updated.

I've been having issues with it recently. Running it on a mac and it seems like the grep -Po commands aren't returning anything any more when they used to.

I've got a different version of grep from homebrew to see if that resolves it and although other grep -Po commands are working these specific ones aren't returning anything. I don't know enough about regex or grep to get the right stuff out.

Hi @kyreal, sorry to hear your experience. It is unfortunate that macOS is using a different version of grep, and thus this script is no way to be executed correctly on macOS. I am currently brewing in a new repository, but yet to have an ETA.

@kyreal you could refactor out the usage of grep - I've used jq in my custom script that's heavily inspired by this one.
