Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

First-install notes

  • Fill in domains and IP sources first Before starting the container, set DOMAINS to your Cloudflare domains and set IP4_PROVIDER/IP6_PROVIDER to where your IP is read from (for testing, static or a mounted file is fine). If these are missing, the app won't know which DNS records to update or where to get your current IP. source
  • Set PROXIED for proxied domains If some domains should use Cloudflare’s proxy (the orange-cloud setting), set PROXIED to the exact domains or a short expression like is(example.org). Without this, proxied domains can be left with the wrong DNS/proxy configuration. source
  • Test with local IP files safely For a dry run, mount ip4.txt and ip6.txt into the container and set the providers to file:/ip4.txt and file:/ip6.txt. This lets you fake IP changes and check the setup without touching your live DNS. source

Common questions

What should I do on a DS-Lite connection where no real public IPv4 address is available?

Set IPV4_ENABLED=no to disable IPv4 updates.

Can I update several ipv64.net domains with one container?

Yes, list them comma-separated in DOMAIN_IPV64. For multiple domains, use the Account Key in DOMAIN_KEY.

How does DOMAIN_PRAEFIX behave when multiple domains are configured?

Only one prefix can be set with DOMAIN_PRAEFIX_YES=yes and DOMAIN_PRAEFIX. The same prefix is applied to every configured domain.

How is the update interval configured?

Use CRON_TIME and CRON_TIME_DIG in the container environment. The example run command uses */15 * * * * for CRON_TIME and */30 * * * * for CRON_TIME_DIG.
