# 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).

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.
