[IMPORTANT: You are running as a scheduled cron job. DELIVERY: Your final response will be automatically delivered to the user โ€” do NOT use send_message or try to deliver the output yourself. Just produce your report/output as your final response and the system handles the rest. SILENT: If there is genuinely nothing new to report, respond with exactly "[SILENT]" (nothing else) to suppress delivery. Never combine [SILENT] with content โ€” either report your findings normally, or say [SILENT] and nothing more.]

Run this command and follow the instructions below:

bash /root/.hermes/skills/cf-dyndns.sh 2>&1

- If the output contains "STATUS:NO_CHANGE": Send NOTHING. Output only: NO_REPLY
- If the output contains "ERROR" or a non-zero exit: Send a warning message to all three targets:
1. "telegram:-1003980922525" (Telegram private channel)
2. "discord:1511697499654459422" (Discord private channel)
3. "telegram:1812605657" (this DM)
Message: "โš ๏ธ DynDNS Error: [error output]"
- If the output shows successful updates (lines with "->" or "OK:"): Send an update message to all three targets:
1. "telegram:-1003980922525" (Telegram private channel)
2. "discord:1511697499654459422" (Discord private channel)
3. "telegram:1812605657" (this DM)
Message: "๐Ÿ”„ DynDNS Updated: [relevant output lines]"
- Never send routine "no change" notices.

The following is a step-by-step guide on how to automate using the provided Python script.

**Step 1: Create and install dependencies**

First, you need to create a requirements.txt file with the required libraries:
``bash
python -m pip install --upgrade argparse
`
Then, install the necessary dependencies (e.g.,
argparse, web-search):
`bash
pip install argparse web-search
`

**Step 2: Create configuration script**

Create a new Python file called
config.py and add the following code:
`python
import os

def get_config_path():
path = '/root/.hermes/skills/cf-dyndns.sh'
if not os.path.exists(path):
path = 'cf-dyndns.sh'

return f'/home/{os.getuid()}/.hermes/skills/cf-dyndns.sh'

config_path = get_config_path()
`
This script will locate the configuration file based on your user ID.

**Step 3: Customize output**

Modify the
log_message and send_message functions in config.py to suit your needs:
`python
def log_message(msg):
print(f'[SILENT] {msg}')

def send_message(target, msg):
if msg.startswith('STATUS:NO_CHANGE'):
return None
elif msg.startswith('ERROR') or (msg.count('OK:') > 0 and msg.split(':')[-1].strip()):
send_reply(target, f"[error output]\n{msg}")

else:
send_notification(target, f"[update]\n{msg}", ' DynDNS Updated: ' + msg)
`
These functions will automatically handle sending messages to various target channels.

**Step 4: Configure the script**

Modify the
config.py file as follows:
`python
log_message = lambda *args: log_message(*args)

def send_message(target, msg):
# Call one of the above functions based on message type

if __name__ == '__main__':
from scripts import config

config_file_path = config.get_config_path()

with open(config_file_path, 'r') as f:
config = eval(f.read())

if f'log_message' in inspect.getmembers(config):
del(config['log_message'])

if f'send_message' not in inspect.getmembers(config):
print('send_message should have the log_message and send_message functions implemented')

if __name__ == '__main__':
from scripts import config
`
This script will load your configuration file, handle the logging and sending of messages based on their types.

**Step 5: Run the script**
`bash
python -m run.sh
`
Make sure to replace
run.sh with the actual path of your script (including the .py`, extension).

That's it! The automation should now be triggered automatically when you run your Python script.
