Now you feel bad, very bad.
Ehy... I've got the solution: Dynamic DNS Updater!
How it works
It works with Puppeteer by Google and NodeJS and it simulate the signin and the navigation trough the page and domains to add/delete a DNS record.
Make sure to have Crhome installed and Node v. > 6.
Then you can run the script typing:
node index.js --username=USERNAME_HERE --password=SECRET_PWD --domain=DOMAIN --name=RECORD_NAME --value=RECORD_VALUE --ttl=TTL_>_600 --type=RECORD_TYPE
Note that RECORD_TYPE can be one of the following values: NS, A, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV, AAAA.
