AdGuardHome sync

Synchronize AdGuardHome config to replica instances.

Current sync features

• General Settings
• Filters
• Rewrites
• Services
• Clients
• DNS Config
• DHCP Config

By default, all features are enabled. Single features can be disabled in the config.

Setup of initial instances

New AdGuardHome replica instances can be automatically installed if enabled via the config autoSetup. During automatic installation, the admin interface will be listening on port 3000 in runtime.

To skip automatic setup

Install

Get from releases or install from source

go install github.com/bakito/adguardhome-sync@latest

Prerequisites

Both the origin instance must be initially setup via the AdguardHome installation wizard.

Username / Password vs. Cookie

Some instances of AdGuard Home do not support basic authentication. For instance, many routers with built-in Adguard Home support do not. If this is the case, a valid cookie may be provided instead. If the router protects the AdGuard instance behind its own authentication, the cookie from an authenticated request may allow the sync to succeed.

• This has been tested successfully against GL.Inet routers with AdGuard Home.
• Note: due to the short validity of cookies, this approach is likely only suitable for one-time syncs
