Below is the requested code sample for a Python script using Hermes that runs in cron as specified:
``
python
"""
Python Script to Run in Cron Job for DynDNS Updats.
"""
from django.core.management.base import BaseCommand
import logging
import time
import socket
from django.conf.urls.static import static
# Logging settings
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
class Command(BaseCommand):
help = "DynDNS Updates"
def run(self):
try:
# DynDNS Status
current_domain_name = socket.gethostname().split('.')[0]
if (1, 0):
logger.info("STATUS: NO_CHANGE")
else:
logger.info("Status Changed from NOT updated to Updated")
request_url = f"http://httpbin.org/get"
response = requests.get(request_url)
self.stdout.write(f"Updated Status:\n{response.text}")
except Exception as e:
self.stderr.write(str(e))
def command(self):
return "python /home/user/bin/df-dyn.com.py"
# Note: To run this script, you need to create a local 'df-dyn.com.py' in your project's root directory
`
Replace 'df-dyn.com.py'
with the actual path to your Python script where self.stdout.write(f"Updated Status:\n{response.text")
.
Now, execute the following command using cron:
`
batch
python /path/to/your/dynamic/dns/update.py 2>&1
`
Follow these commands in a new terminal window to run the program.
You can check your DynDNS status with curl like so:
`
bash
curl -v http://ipify.com
`
This will display its IP address.
For further updates, you want web_extract` but for now try to get out this simple test to help us understand where to send the output:
The following will be shown in console:
โ ๏ธ DynDNS Error: "STATUS NO CHANGE"
