# pb-dydns
Script in PHP to update DNS type A records on porkbun.com using their API.
This can easily be adapted to other registrars or scripting languages.
## Prerequisites
- At least one domain in porkbun.com with DNS type A records already pointing to your dynamic IP address.
- Access to the Porkbun API (API key + secret key).
## Installation & Deployment
### 1. Clone the repository
```bash
git clone https://gitea.ramoncaballero.dev/mon/pb-dydns.git
cd pb-dydns
```
### 2. Deploy the script
Run the provided deployment script:
```bash
./deploy.sh
```
This creates a directory:
```
$HOME/pb-dydns-live
```
Inside it you will find:
- pb-dydns.php (the script you run)
- PorkbunAPI.php
- UpdateDnsCommand.php
- Config.php
- Logger.php
- pb-dydns.json (your configuration file)
- pb-dydns.log (log file)
### 3. Configure it
Edit the configuration file `$HOME/pb-dydns-live/pb-dydns.json`
Fill in:
- the Porkbun API endpoint (usually https://api.porkbun.com/api/json/v3/)
- your Porkbun API key
- your secret key
## How to use it
### From the command line
```
$ php /path/to/pb-dydns-live/pb-dydns.php yourdomain.com
```
### As a cron job
Edit your crontab:
```bash
crontab -e
```
Add a line like:
```
*/10 * * * * php /path/to/pb-dydns-live/pb-dydns.php yourdomain.com > /dev/null
```
This runs the updater every 10 minutes.
