Documentation

Cloudflare

It is a Ruby wrapper for the Cloudflare V4 API. It provides a light weight wrapper using RestClient::Resource. The wrapper functionality is limited to zones and DNS records at this time, PRs welcome.

Development Status

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'cloudflare'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install cloudflare

Usage

Here are some basic examples. For more details, refer to the code and specs.

require 'cloudflare'

# Grab some details from somewhere:
email = ENV['CLOUDFLARE_EMAIL']
key = ENV['CLOUDFLARE_KEY']

Cloudflare.connect(key: key, email: email) do |connection|
	# Get all available zones:
	zones = connection.zones
	
	# Get a specific zone:
	zone = connection.zones.find_by_id("...")
	zone = connection.zones.find_by_name("example.com")
	
	# Get DNS records for a given zone:
	dns_records = zone.dns_records
	
	# Show some details of the DNS record:
	dns_record = dns_records.first
	puts dns_record.name
	
	# Add a DNS record. Here we add an A record for `batman.example.com`:
	zone = zones.find_by_name("example.com")
	zone.dns_records.create('A', 'batman', '1.2.3.4', proxied: false)
	
	# Get firewall rules:
	all_rules = zone.firewall_rules
	
	# Block an ip:
	rule = zone.firewall_rules.set('block', '1.2.3.4', notes: "ssh dictionary attack")
end

Using a Bearer Token

You can read more about bearer tokens here. This allows you to limit priviledges.

require 'cloudflare'

token = 'a_generated_api_token'

Cloudflare.connect(token: token) do |connection|
	# ...
end

Using with Async

Async do
	connection = Cloudflare.connect(...)
	
	# ... do something with connection ...
ensure
	connection.close
end
