CloudFlare dynamic dns updater module for Synology
#!/bin/sh
# cloudflareddns.sh - dynamic dns updater module for Synology
#
# Author:
# Michael Wildman (http://mwild.me)
#
# Version:
# 0.2
#
# Description:
# copy to /sbin/cloudflaredns.sh
# make executable (chmod +x)
# add the following entry to /etc.defaults/ddns_provider.conf
#
# [CloudFlare]
# modulepath=/sbin/cloudflaredns.sh
# queryurl=https://www.cloudflare.com/api_json.html?a=rec_edit&tkn=__PASSWORD__&email=__USERNAME__&z=__HOSTNAME__&content=__MYIP__
#
# (note that URL is not actually used, DSM will pass us the variables)
# run a rec_load_all query to get the record id
# (see https://www.cloudflare.com/docs/client-api.html)
#
# Changelog:
# 0.2:
# - Simplified this thing to its most basic requirements (curl + logging)
# - Now either returns 'good' or the result (no checking for cases -- the log was always more useful anyway!)

# Based on Brian Schmidt Pedersen (http://blog.briped.net) gratisdns.sh

# read addition parameters from cloudflare api calls

@dvershinin yep mate, you're right, didn't think about this case. I'm going to fix it. Feel free to send an issue in my project)

@mrikirill just above your comment, I mention cloudflareddns which addresses all these edge case from the start.
