automatically update duckdns via launchd on OSX

RIP in piece DynDNS

DynDNS is no longer free. Don't worry though, DuckDNS offers the exact same service.

Now if only there was a simple way to automate the updating of my IP address to my DuckDNS host name. Oh wait -- there is!

Installation

  1. $ brew tap jzelinskie/duckdns
  2. $ brew install duckdns
  3. Configure - make a $HOME/.duckdns config file like so:
DOMAIN="example,example2"
TOKEN="11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111"
  1. Run and register to launch at login $ brew services start duckdns
