To proceed with updating the DynDNS records for your Telegram bot, you'll need to run the provided command in a cron job under the
/root/.hermes directory. Here's how you can do it:
1. Update the shebang line at the top of
cf-dyndns.sh file if it is currently not there
``
#!/bin/bash -c "$(curl -sSf "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/your-repo-locator/de releases/latest/cf-dyndns.sh")"
`
You should replace /your-repo-locator
with the actual path to your repository.
2. Save this updated bash script
3. You can now run the following command in a cron job under /root/.hermes/
`
/root/.hermes/skills/cf-dyndns.sh 2>&1
`
4. The output from /root/.hermes/skills/cf-dyndns.sh
when executed through cron can include STATUS:NO_CHANGE
, error messages, and successful updates to DynDNS records.
5. If you wish to send out notifications but do not immediately want output from a specific instance of the cf-dyndns.sh
script, consider running it only on certain targets while omitting certain groups (see below).
To customize sending notifications like this, you can use options passed at job creation time. Below are example commands:
`
# Send ONLY to target one
cronjobid:1 telegram:-1003980922525
#Send to ALL TARGETS, unless specific exception is made.
cronjobid:2 discord:1511697499654459422,telegram:1812605657 telegram:-1001998242123
Example notifications for sending via cron:
Send ONLY to telegram one
# 1. You can add or change target group ids manually.
Send to ALL TARGETS (but Discord only)
cronjobid: 2 discord,telegram:-1003980922525
`
Then you simply omit any of the individual command arguments that are not specified in your cron job definition.
`
cron
*/1 * * * * /root/.hermes/skills/cf-dyndns.sh 2>&1
``
Never interrupt this process or run on non-root accounts.
Note: Be sure to set up notifications with the correct Telegram recipients, and keep a record of any attempts made by cron (on multiple accounts without clear control) that were unsuccessful. Keep an eye out for when some failed executions will occur as you have already implemented logging.
