as a configuration file, and stdout as a log output. However, these can be configured. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
./name-dyndns -daemon=true -log="/var/log/name-dyndns/out.log" -config="~/name_config.json"
|
||||
./name-dyndns -daemon=true -dev=true -log="/var/log/name-dyndns/out.log" -config="~/name_config.json"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will run name-dyndns in daemon mode, outputting to `/var/log/name-dyndns/out.log`, using the configuration file `~/name_config.json`

This will run name-dyndns in daemon mode for dev configurations, outputting to `/var/log/name-dyndns/out.log`, using the configuration file `~/name_config.json`

A detailed usage can be found by running:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
./name-dyndns --help

## Error Handling
|

|

Currently, there is limited testing, primarily on none-api dependant utilities.
|
||||
While error handling **should** be done gracefully, not every edge case has been tested.

Ideally, when running in daemon mode, name-dyndns tries to treat any errors
|
||||
arising from network (API, fetching external IP) as transient failures, and tries again next iteration. The idea behind this is that a single network failure shouldn't

kill the daemon, which could then potentially result in having the DNS records out
