3 months agoYou do not need a static IP address or dynamic DNS if your domain registrar provides a REST API. My current registrar is Porkbun and they have a REST API. I simply have a cron job that regularly checks if my public IP[1] differs from the domain’s A-record. If it does, it updates the record to match the public IP address using their API.
I use Porkbun’s ping endpoint to obtain my public IP. There are also alternatives such as Ipify. ↩︎

This comparison genuinely made me laugh because it’s so true. 🤣
