You could also use py-hole which is a simple apt install of a bit of python that does the dnsmasq file creation and update.

Its pre alpha but may work for you

Thanks for the recommendation but the shell script i have works good enough and has been for a few years now. Plus the container (FreeBSD jail to be precise) is pretty low footprint so while i don't have an issue with Python itself, it's an additional package I don't really need.
