# AdGuard Home Whitelist DDNS Client A script for adding a dynamic ip address as an allowed client to AdGuard Home. Useful if you host AdGuard Home on a VPS and your router doesn't supports DNS over HTTPS (DoH) or DNS over TLS (DoT). GitHub: https://github.com/michivonah/adguard-ddns-client You can run this python script manually or via the docker container. I recommend using the docker container. But you also can run the python script manually when you need it. Use as docker container on your server: 1. Install docker on your system ```apt-get install docker.io docker-compose -y``` 2. Open your cronjob ```crontab -e``` 3. Add the following line and change the enviromental variables to your server ```0 * * * * docker run -d --rm --env API_BASE_URL="https://example.com" --env API_USERNAME=YOUR_USER --env API_PASSWORD=YOUR_PASSWORD --env DOMAIN_NAME=YOUR_DDNS_DOMAIN adguard-ddns-client``` 4. Finished. Now the cronjobs runs every hour and adds the clients ip address if it is missing. ## Enviormental variables These environment variables are supported | Variable | Description | Example | | --- | --- | --- | | API_BASE_URL | The url of your AdGuard Home Server | ``https://example.com`` | | API_USERNAME | The username of your AdGuard Home Administrator Account | ``admin`` | | API_PASSWORD | The password of your AdGuard Home Administrator Account | ``admin123`` (use a secure password) | | DOMAIN_NAME | Your DDNS Domain name with the ip address you want to whitelist | ``ddns.example.com`` | > Required enviromental variables: API_BASE_URL, API_USERNAME, API_PASSWORD, DOMAIN_NAME
