A Python script to update DuckDNS

duckdns_updater.py

import urllib2


domains = ['YOUR_DOMAIN1', 'YOUR_DOMAIN2']
token = 'YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'

ip_check_url = 'http://icanhazip.com'

def get_public_ip():
    response = urllib2.urlopen(url=ip_check_url)
    return response.read().strip('\n')

def update_duckdns(public_ip):
    global domains, token

    duck_url = 'http://www.duckdns.org/update?domains=%s&token=%s&ip=%s'

    domains = ','.join(domains)

    duck_url = duck_url % (domains, token, public_ip)

    response = urllib2.urlopen(url=duck_url)
    return response.read()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    print update_duckdns(public_ip=get_public_ip())

hello, thanks for writing this script. The script shows the output 'OK'/'OK', and when I add verbose mode like: 'http://www.duckdns.org/update?domains=%s&token=%s&ip=%s&verbose=True' (as described on the duckdns website), it gives an error. But a batch file works fine in verbose mode. Is there any way to get the 'ip address and NOCHANGE/UPDATED' as well in your script. thanks
