# pb-dydns
Script in PHP to update DNS type A records on porkbun.com using their API.
This can easily be modified to a different programming or scripting language and domain registrar.
## Prerequisites
- At least one domain in porkbun.com with DNS type A records already pointing to your dynamic IP address.
- Access to Porkbun API.
## How to use it
### from command line
```
$ php /path/to/pb-dydns.php domain_name
```
### as a cron job
```
$ crontab -e
```
Modify this line to fit your needs, and add it as many times as domains you want to automatically update:
```
*/10 * * * * php /path/to/pb-dydns.php domain_name > /dev/null
```
That will run the script every 10 minutes.
Then restart cron (I'm not sure if this is necessary):
```
$ sudo systemctl restart cron
```
Entries to a log file called "pb-dydns.log" will be added, to view it you can:
```
$ cat /path/to/pb-dydns.log
```

// This script updates the DNS type A on porkbun.com so it is always pointing to your public IP address.

// Dependencies:
//
// - PorkbunAPI.php

//
// How to use it:
//
// - from command line:

// $ php /path/to/pb-dydns.php domain_name
//
// It will retrieve all DNS records for the specificied domain_name and update the A type ones
