# Cloudflare DNS Updater # Cloudflare DNS Updater
## Create and activating a venv
Make sure Python 3.10 or higher is installed.
Use `cd` to change to the location of this repository.
Now, run ## Using the application
```
py -3.10 -m venv venv
```
Replace the `-3.10` with other Python versions if necessary (ex.: `-3.11`)
Activate the venv using the command The application necessarily requires a valid Cloudflare API Token.
``` Further the application must be located in the same network as the configured zones.
venv/scripts/activate
| Environment Variable | Required | Usage |
|:--------------------:|:--------:|:----------------------------------:|
| CF_API_TOKEN | x | Cloudflare API Token |
| STATUS_POST_URL | | Post Endpoint for a Uptime Monitor |
*Note: Variables can be stored in a .env file*
The actual configuration happens in two or more files:
`interfaces.toml` contains all IPv6 interfaces available/used by the zone config files.
`.toml` files in `zone.d` contain settings for individual zones.
Example:
*interfaces.toml*
```toml
[[interface]]
alias = "example-interface-1" # this is what a user inputs in the zone.toml
address = ":da5e:d3ff:feeb:4346" # static part of the IP, the rest will be dynamically generated using the host
``` ```
## Installing the required packages *zone.d/example.org.toml*
```toml
email = "owner@example.org" # Email of User owning the Zone
name = "example.org" # Zone Name
id = "0183f167a051f1e432c0d931478638b5" # Zone ID
Make sure the venv is activated. [[entry]]
name="example.org" # "@" Symbol is not currently supported
Run the following command type="10" # Options are: "4" (only IPv4/A Record), "6" (only IPv6/AAAA Record) and "10" (both)
``` interface="example-interface-1" # Only required on type values 6 and 10
pip install -r requirements.txt
``` ```
Alternatively, the packages can be installed manually by using `pip install`. ## Debian Repository
TODO!
The full list of packages needed:
- cloudflare (Version 2.0.0 or greater)
- Buildins:
- json
- configparser
- ipaddress
- sys
## Using the script
Before running the script, make sure there exists a `config.ini` file next to the `cloudflare_script.py`.
The config has to have the following structure:
```ini
[cloudflare]
TOKEN=<cloudflare api token>
[server]
HOSTNAME=hostname-of-website.com
```
Run the script using the following arguments:
```
python cloudflare_script.py <ipversion> <path/to/ip/list>
```
IP-Version can be 4 or 6.
The IP-List has to conform to the following structure and be a json file:
```json
{
"AAAA": [
"ipv6 site prefix"
],
"A": [
"ipv4 site prefix"
]
}
```
To only get the currently registered DNS records for a given API key, run
```
python cloudflare_script.py
```
THis will print all DNS records for the API key with name, ip, cloudflare id and ip-version
