Linode

Configuration

Example

{
  "settings": [
    {
      "provider": "linode",
      "domain": "domain.com",
      "host": "@",
      "token": "token",
      "ip_version": "ipv4"
    }
  ]
}

Compulsory parameters

• "domain"
• "host" is your host and can be a subdomain or "@" or "*"
• "token"

Optional parameters

• "ip_version" can be ipv4 (A records), or ipv6 (AAAA records) or ipv4 or ipv6 (update one of the two, depending on the public ip found). It defaults to ipv4 or ipv6.

Domain setup

1. Create a personal access token with domains set, with read and write privileges, ideally that never expires. You can refer to @AnujRNair's comment and to Linode's guide.
2. The program will create the A or AAAA record for you if it doesn't exist already.
