This is the initial release of dness -- and it is currently only an MVP (minimal viable project). Dness does one thing: detect WAN IP through OpenDNS and update the appropriate records on Cloudflare. But already at v0.1.0 it has scratched my itch; solved a problem I had with the current array of dynamic dns clients, so I decided to release it -- not in the thought that dness will be some de facto dynamic dns client, but that if dness solved a problem I had, maybe it will solve others' problems.

With that said, there here are a list of improvements that can conceivably be implemented:

  • Support dynamic dns in the truest / traditional sense of the phrase by supporting rfc2136 (DNS Update)
  • Support additional dns hosts (eg: namecheap)
  • Support additional ip resolvers (eg: http://httpbin.org/ip)
  • Multiplex requests / operations using tokio
  • Allow daemon mode so dness is more self contained
  • Additional packaging (APT / yum repos)
  • Configurable logging (ie: json) to be flexible enough to meet any logging needs
