This is a custom component that can update both IPV4 and IPV6 entries of a Duck DNS subdomain, I developed this because the already integrated Duck DNS Component component is only able to update the IPV4 address over Duck DNS “autodetect mode” and I couldn’t manage to get IPV6 working on the HassIO Addon. The code is pretty much a combination of the built-in Duck DNS Component and DNS IP with some extra features.
This is has been running on my setup for weeks now, without issues, but keep in mind that it is still in beta. Also, make sure to completly read the documentation to properly setup this component.
All the installation instructions can be found in the README.md file on the Github Repository.
Any feedback, ideas, or comments are appreciated.
Cheers!
Hi
I had the same problem of IPv6 address not getting updated by duckdns. Was looking for a solution and happened to see your custom component and immediately installed it. BTW how do I know that the IPv6 address has been updated by the component. Does it log it? My IP hasn’t changed since I installed the component and I display the same on my Dash board. Thanks for the very useful component.

Hi
Should I still keep the HA addon running along with yours? I have both configured and my ipv6 got updated in duckdns. Wouldn’t know which one updated it.
Thanks a lot , it solved a lot of my problems . Your addon have the part where I can only update the IPv6 part and ignore the IPv4 . I was using another script to update the IPv6 to Duckdns but it also update IPv4 which caused a lot of problems for me .
