inwx

This is an unofficial Rust binding for the inwx domrobot API. Currently it only has the following features:

• Login and retrieve account information (account.login via method inwx.account.login)
• Logout (account.logout via method inwx.account.logout)
• Retrieve information and all records for a specific domain (nameserver.info via method inwx.nameserver.info)
• Update records (nameserver.updateRecord via method inwx.nameserver.update_record)

If you need a certain function implemented, just ask in an issue and I will probably add it.

Usage

Add the following to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
inwx = "0.1.0"

See the example simple_query for information about connecting to the domrobot API and retrieving all records for a given domain. See the dyndns example for some more complex operations.

Examples

Currently there are two examples: simple_query retrieves all records for a specific domain and lists them. dyndns is more interesting, it loads a configuration file which contains inwx credentials, then retrieves the current IP address of the network gateway via igd and then updates a specified DNS record to point to that address.

Using the client for dynamic DNS

The dyndns example is a fully-featured dyndns client which retrieves your current routers public IP address and updates a record on your inwx-hosted domain. To use it, you first have to write a little configuration file:

[inwx]
user = "foo"
pass = "bar"
domain = "foo.bar"
record = "home.foo.bar"

[gateway]
search_iface = "192.168.1.1"

Set search_iface to the IP address of your network interface. The program will search a router on this interface using the Internet Gateway Protocol, retrieve it's public IP address and then update the specified record of the specified domain to that IP address (it will only update A records).

To run it, save your configuration as foobar.toml and then invoke:

cargo run --example=dyndns --release -- foobar.toml
