namesilo-dynamicdns-docker

A docker container to update namesilo's dynamic DNS. Forked from https://github.com/fedoranimus/namesilo-dynamicdns-docker with the following enhancements:

• Based off the very efficient node:lts-alpine3.11 image.
• Internal cron job - run and forget.
• Caching of IP address
• Log levels, log tweaks

    "cronConfig": {
        "runCron": true,         // Start a recurring cron job within the runtime. Setting this to true means you can start a docker container and let it run in the background to be sure that namesilo will be updated whenever your IP changes.
        "intervalMinutes": 20    // The number of minutes between cron job runs.
    },
    "logLevel": "info"           // debug, info, warning, error
