A suitable solution for those who have an unused Android device and no white IP.
1. Assets
- Android device with Termux
- Cloudflare domain name (e.g domain.com)
- Local web application (e.g. http://localhost:1024)
Example
DOMAIN=domain.com
TUNNEL=main
URL=http://localhost:1024
CONFIG=~/.cloudflared/config-${TUNNEL}.yml2. Create a tunnel
pkg install cloudflared
cloudflared tunnel login
cloudflared tunnel create ${TUNNEL}
ID=$(cloudflared tunnel list | awk -v NAME=${TUNNEL} '$2 == NAME { print $1 }')3. Create a config
cat << EOF > ${CONFIG}
url: ${URL}
tunnel: ${ID}
credentials-file: /data/data/com.termux/files/home/.cloudflared/${ID}.json
EOF4. Start routing traffic
cloudflared tunnel route dns ${TUNNEL} ${DOMAIN}5. Run the tunnel
cloudflared tunnel --config ${CONFIG} run ${TUNNEL}6. Runit service (optional)
pkg install termux-services
LOG=${PREFIX}/var/service/cloudflared/log
mkdir -p ${LOG}
ln -sf ${PREFIX}/share/termux-services/svlogger ${LOG}/run
RUN=${PREFIX}/var/service/cloudflared/run
cat << EOF > ${RUN}
#!/bin/sh
exec cloudflared tunnel --config ${CONFIG} run ${TUNNEL}
EOF
chmod +x ${RUN}
