Two methods are provided to install this software. Use PyPi (see package details) or GitHub (see package details).
$ sudo pip install cloudflare
$
Yes - that simple! (the sudo may not be needed in some cases).
$ git clone https://github.com/cloudflare/python-cloudflare
$ cd python-cloudflare
$ ./setup.py build
$ sudo ./setup.py install
$
Or whatever variance of that you want to use. There is a Makefile included.
In Sepember/October 2016 the company modified its company name and dropped the capital F. However, for now (and for backward compatibility reasons) the class name stays the same.
The Cloudflare API can be found here. Each API call is provided via a similarly named function within the CloudFlare class. A full list is provided below.
All example code is available on GitHub (see package in the examples folder.
This package was initially introduced here via Cloudflare's blog.
A very simple listing of zones within your account; including the IPv6 status of the zone.
import CloudFlare
def main():
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare()
zones = cf.zones.get()
for zone in zones:
zone_id = zone['id']
zone_name = zone['name']
print zone_id, zone_name
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
This example works when there are less than 50 zones (50 is the default number of values returned from a query like this).
Now lets expand on that and add code to show the IPv6 and SSL status of the zones. Lets also query 100 zones.
import CloudFlare
def main():
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare()
zones = cf.zones.get(params = {'per_page':100})
for zone in zones:
zone_id = zone['id']
zone_name = zone['name']
settings_ssl = cf.zones.settings.ssl.get(zone_id)
ssl_status = settings_ssl['value']
settings_ipv6 = cf.zones.settings.ipv6.get(zone_id)
ipv6_status = settings_ipv6['value']
print zone_id, zone_name, ssl_status, ipv6_status
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
In order to query more than a single page of zones, we would have to use the raw mode (decribed more below). We can loop over many get calls and pass the page paramater to facilitate the paging.
Raw mode is only needed when a get request has the possibility of returning many items.
import CloudFlare
def main():
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare(raw=True)
page_number = 0
while True:
page_number += 1
raw_results = cf.zones.get(params={'per_page':5,'page':page_number})
zones = raw_results['result']
for zone in zones:
zone_id = zone['id']
zone_name = zone['name']
print zone_id, zone_name
total_pages = raw_results['result_info']['total_pages']
if page_number == total_pages:
break
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
A more complex example follows.
import CloudFlare
def main():
zone_name = 'example.com'
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare()
# query for the zone name and expect only one value back
try:
zones = cf.zones.get(params = {'name':zone_name,'per_page':1})
except CloudFlare.exceptions.CloudFlareAPIError as e:
exit('/zones.get %d %s - api call failed' % (e, e))
except Exception as e:
exit('/zones.get - %s - api call failed' % (e))
if len(zones) == 0:
exit('No zones found')
# extract the zone_id which is needed to process that zone
zone = zones[0]
zone_id = zone['id']
# request the DNS records from that zone
try:
dns_records = cf.zones.dns_records.get(zone_id)
except CloudFlare.exceptions.CloudFlareAPIError as e:
exit('/zones/dns_records.get %d %s - api call failed' % (e, e))
# print the results - first the zone name
print zone_id, zone_name
# then all the DNS records for that zone
for dns_record in dns_records:
r_name = dns_record['name']
r_type = dns_record['type']
r_value = dns_record['content']
r_id = dns_record['id']
print '\t', r_id, r_name, r_type, r_value
exit(0)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
When you create a CloudFlare class you can pass up to four paramaters.
- Account email
- Account API key
- Optional Origin-CA Certificate Token
- Optional Debug flag (True/False)
import CloudFlare
# A minimal call - reading values from environment variables or configuration file
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare()
# A minimal call with debug enabled
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare(debug=True))
# A full blown call with passed basic account information
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare(email='[email protected]', token='00000000000000000000000000000000')
# A full blown call with passed basic account information and CA-Origin info
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare(email='[email protected]', token='00000000000000000000000000000000', certtoken='v1.0-...')
If the account email and API key are not passed when you create the class, then they are retreived from either the users exported shell environment variables or the .cloudflare.cfg or ~/.cloudflare.cfg or ~/.cloudflare/cloudflare.cfg files, in that order.
There is one call that presently doesn't need any email or token certification (the /ips call); hence you can test without any values saved away.
$ export CF_API_EMAIL='[email protected]'
$ export CF_API_KEY='00000000000000000000000000000000'
$ export CF_API_CERTKEY='v1.0-...'
$
These are optional environment variables; however, they do override the values set within a configuration file.
$ cat ~/.cloudflare/cloudflare.cfg
[CloudFlare]
email = [email protected]
token = 00000000000000000000000000000000
certtoken = v1.0-...
extras =
$
The CF_API_CERTKEY or certtoken values are used for the Origin-CA /certificates API calls. You can leave certtoken in the configuration with a blank value (or omit the option variable fully).
The extras values are used when adding API calls outside of the core codebase. Technically, this is only useful for internal testing within Cloudflare. You can leave extras in the configuration with a blank value (or omit the option variable fully).
The response is build from the JSON in the API call. It contains the results values; but does not contain the paging values.
You can return all the paging values by calling the class with raw=True. Here's an example without paging.
#!/usr/bin/env python
import json
import CloudFlare
def main():
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare()
zones = cf.zones.get(params={'per_page':5})
print len(zones)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
The results are as follows.
5
When you add the raw option; the APIs full structure is returned. This means the paging values can be seen.
#!/usr/bin/env python
import json
import CloudFlare
def main():
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare(raw=True)
zones = cf.zones.get(params={'per_page':5})
print zones.length()
print json.dumps(zones, indent=4, sort_keys=True)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
This produces.
5
{
"result": [
...
],
"result_info": {
"count": 5,
"page": 1,
"per_page": 5,
"total_count": 31,
"total_pages": 7
}
}
A full example of paging is provided below.
The library will raise CloudFlareAPIError when the API call fails. The exception returns both an integer and textual message in one value.
import CloudFlare
...
try
r = ...
except CloudFlare.exceptions.CloudFlareAPIError as e:
exit('api error: %d %s' % (e, e))
...
The other raised response is CloudFlareInternalError which can happen when calling an invalid method.
In some cases more than one error is returned. In this case the return value e is also an array. You can itterate over that array to see the additional error.
import sys
import CloudFlare
...
try
r = ...
except CloudFlare.exceptions.CloudFlareAPIError as e:
if len(e) > 0:
sys.stderr.write('api error - more than one error value returned!\n')
for x in e:
sys.stderr.write('api error: %d %s\n' % (x, x))
exit('api error: %d %s' % (e, e))
...
Here's examples using the CLI command cli4 of the responses passed back in exceptions.
First a simple get with a clean (non-error) response.
$ cli4 /zones/:example.com/dns_records | jq -c '.[]|{"name":.name,"type":.type,"content":.content}'
{"name":"example.com","type":"MX","content":"something.example.com"}
{"name":"something.example.com","type":"A","content":"10.10.10.10"}
$
Next a simple/single error response. This is simulated by providing incorrect authentication information.
$ CF_API_EMAIL='[email protected]' cli4 /zones/
cli4: /zones - 9103 Unknown X-Auth-Key or X-Auth-Email
$
Finally, a command that provides more than one error response. This is simulated by passing an invalid IPv4 address to a DNS record creation.
$ cli4 --post name='foo' type=A content="1" /zones/:example.com/dns_records
cli4: /zones/:example.com/dns_records - 9005 Content for A record is invalid. Must be a valid IPv4 address
cli4: /zones/:example.com/dns_records - 1004 DNS Validation Error
$
The examples folder contains many examples in both simple and verbose formats.
#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys
import CloudFlare
def main():
zone_name = sys.argv[1]
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare()
zone_info = cf.zones.post(data={'jump_start':False, 'name': zone_name})
zone_id = zone_info['id']
dns_records = [
{'name':'foo', 'type':'AAAA', 'content':'2001:d8b::1'},
{'name':'foo', 'type':'A', 'content':'192.168.0.1'},
{'name':'duh', 'type':'A', 'content':'10.0.0.1', 'ttl':120},
{'name':'bar', 'type':'CNAME', 'content':'foo'},
{'name':'shakespeare', 'type':'TXT', 'content':"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name ..."}
]
for dns_record in dns_records:
r = cf.zones.dns_records.post(zone_id, data=dns_record)
exit(0)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys
import CloudFlare
def main():
zone_name = sys.argv[1]
cf = CloudFlare.CloudFlare()
zone_info = cf.zones.get(param={'name': zone_name})
zone_id = zone_info['id']
dns_name = sys.argv[2]
dns_records = cf.zones.dns_records.get(zone_id, params={'name':dns_name + '.' + zone_name})
for dns_record in dns_records:
dns_record_id = dns_record['id']
r = cf.zones.dns_records.delete(zone_id, dns_record_id)
exit(0)
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
All API calls can be called from the command line. The command will convert domain names on-the-fly into zone_identifier's.
$ cli4 [-V|--version] [-h|--help] [-v|--verbose] [-q|--quiet] [-j|--json] [-y|--yaml] [-r|--raw] [-d|--dump] [--get|--patch|--post|--put|--delete] [item=value ...] /command...
For API calls that need to pass data or parameters there is various formats to use.
The simplest form is item=value
. This passes the value as a string within the APIs JSON data.
If you need a numeric value passed then == can be used to force the value to be treated as a numeric value within the APIs JSON data.
For example: item==value
.
if you need to pass a list of items; then [] can be used. For example:
pool_id1="11111111111111111111111111111111"
pool_id2="22222222222222222222222222222222"
pool_id3="33333333333333333333333333333333"
cli4 --post global_pools="[ ${pool_id1}, ${pool_id2}, ${pool_id3} ]" region_pools="[ ]" /user/load_balancers/maps
Data or parameters can be either named or unnamed.
It can not be both.
Named is the majority format; as described above.
Unnamed parameters simply don't have anything before the = sign, as in =value
.
This format is presently only used by the Cloudflare Load Balancer API calls.
For example:
cli4 --put ="00000000000000000000000000000000" /user/load_balancers/maps/:00000000000000000000000000000000/region/:WNAM
Data can also be uploaded from file contents. Using the item=@filename
format will open the file and the contents uploaded in the POST.
The output from the CLI command is in JSON or YAML format (and human readable). This is controled by the --yaml or --json flags (JSON is the default).
-
cli4 /user/billing/profile
-
cli4 /user/invites
-
cli4 /zones/:example.com
-
cli4 /zones/:example.com/dnssec
-
cli4 /zones/:example.com/settings/ipv6
-
cli4 --put /zones/:example.com/activation_check
-
cli4 /zones/:example.com/keyless_certificates
-
cli4 /zones/:example.com/analytics/dashboard
Here is the creation of a DNS entry, followed by a listing of that entry and then the deletion of that entry.
$ $ cli4 --post name="test" type="A" content="10.0.0.1" /zones/:example.com/dns_records
{
"id": "00000000000000000000000000000000",
"name": "test.example.com",
"type": "A",
"content": "10.0.0.1",
...
}
$
$ cli4 /zones/:example.com/dns_records/:test.example.com | jq '{"id":.id,"name":.name,"type":.type,"content":.content}'
{
"id": "00000000000000000000000000000000",
"name": "test.example.com",
"type": "A",
"content": "10.0.0.1"
}
$ cli4 --delete /zones/:example.com/dns_records/:test.example.com | jq -c .
{"id":"00000000000000000000000000000000"}
$
There's the ability to handle dns entries with multiple values. This produces more than one API call within the command.
$ cli4 /zones/:example.com/dns_records/:test.example.com | jq -c '.[]|{"id":.id,"name":.name,"type":.type,"content":.content}'
{"id":"00000000000000000000000000000000","name":"test.example.com","type":"A","content":"192.168.0.1"}
{"id":"00000000000000000000000000000000","name":"test.example.com","type":"AAAA","content":"2001:d8b::1"}
$
Here are the cache purging commands.
$ cli4 --delete purge_everything=true /zones/:example.com/purge_cache | jq -c .
{"id":"00000000000000000000000000000000"}
$
$ cli4 --delete files='[http://example.com/css/styles.css]' /zones/:example.com/purge_cache | jq -c .
{"id":"00000000000000000000000000000000"}
$
$ cli4 --delete files='[http://example.com/css/styles.css,http://example.com/js/script.js]' /zones/:example.com/purge_cache | jq -c .
{"id":"00000000000000000000000000000000"}
$
$ cli4 --delete tags='[tag1,tag2,tag3]' /zones/:example.com/purge_cache | jq -c .
cli4: /zones/:example.com/purge_cache - 1107 Only enterprise zones can purge by tag.
$
A somewhat useful listing of available plans for a specific zone.
$ cli4 /zones/:example.com/available_plans | jq -c '.[]|{"id":.id,"name":.name}'
{"id":"00000000000000000000000000000000","name":"Pro Website"}
{"id":"00000000000000000000000000000000","name":"Business Website"}
{"id":"00000000000000000000000000000000","name":"Enterprise Website"}
{"id":"0feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee","name":"Free Website"}
$
Here's some Cloudflare CA examples. Note the need of the zone_id= paramater with the basic /certificates call.
$ cli4 /zones/:example.com | jq -c '.|{"id":.id,"name":.name}'
{"id":"12345678901234567890123456789012","name":"example.com"}
$
$ cli4 zone_id=12345678901234567890123456789012 /certificates | jq -c '.[]|{"id":.id,"expires_on":.expires_on,"hostnames":.hostnames,"certificate":.certificate}'

$
A certificate can be viewed via a simple GET request.
$ cli4 /certificates/:123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678
{
"certificate": "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\n ... ",

"request_type": "origin-rsa"
}
$
Creating a certificate. This is done with a POST request. Note the use of == in order to pass a decimal number (vs. string) in JSON. The CSR is not shown for simplicity sake.
$ CSR=`cat example.com.csr`
$ cli4 --post hostnames='["example.com","*.example.com"]' requested_validity==365 request_type="origin-ecc" csr="$CSR" /certificates
{
"certificate": "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\n ... ",

"request_type": "origin-ecc",
"requested_validity": 365
}
$
Deleting a certificate can be done with a DELETE call.
$ cli4 --delete /certificates/:123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678
{
"id": "123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678",
"revoked_at": "0000-00-00T00:00:00Z"
}

The --raw command provides access to the paging returned values. See the API documentation for all the info. Here's an example of how to page thru a list of zones (it's included in the examples folder as example_paging_thru_zones.sh).
:
tmp=/tmp/$$_
trap "rm ${tmp}; exit 0" 0 1 2 15
PAGE=0
while true
do
cli4 --raw per_page=5 page=${PAGE} /zones > ${tmp}
domains=`jq -c '.|.result|.[]|.name' < ${tmp} | tr -d '"'`
result_info=`jq -c '.|.result_info' < ${tmp}`
COUNT=` echo "${result_info}" | jq .count`
PAGE=` echo "${result_info}" | jq .page`
PER_PAGE=` echo "${result_info}" | jq .per_page`
TOTAL_COUNT=`echo "${result_info}" | jq .total_count`
TOTAL_PAGES=`echo "${result_info}" | jq .total_pages`
echo COUNT=${COUNT} PAGE=${PAGE} PER_PAGE=${PER_PAGE} TOTAL_COUNT=${TOTAL_COUNT} TOTAL_PAGES=${TOTAL_PAGES} -- ${domains}
if [ "${PAGE}" == "${TOTAL_PAGES}" ]
then
## last section
break
fi
# grab the next page
PAGE=`expr ${PAGE} + 1`
done
It produces the following results.

Cloudflare Workers are described on the Cloudflare blog at here and here, with the beta release announced here.
The Python libraries now support the Cloudflare Workers API calls. The following javascript is lifted from https://cloudflareworkers.com/ and slightly modified.
$ cat modify-body.js
addEventListener("fetch", event => {
event.respondWith(fetchAndModify(event.request));
});
async function fetchAndModify(request) {
console.log("got a request:", request);
// Send the request on to the origin server.
const response = await fetch(request);
// Read response body.
const text = await response.text();
// Modify it.
const modified = text.replace(
"<body>",
"<body style=\"background: #ff0;\">");
// Return modified response.
return new Response(modified, {
status: response.status,
statusText: response.statusText,
headers: response.headers
});
}
$
Here's the website with it's simple <body>
statement
$ curl -sS https://example.com/ | fgrep '<body'
<body>
$
Now lets add the script. Looking above, you will see that it's simple action is to modify the <body>
statement and make the background yellow.
$ cli4 --put @- /zones/:example.com/workers/script < modify-body.js
{
"etag": "1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234",
"id": "example-com",
"modified_on": "2018-02-15T00:00:00.000000Z",
"script": "addEventListener(\"fetch\", event => {\n event.respondWith(fetchAndModify(event.request));\n});\n\nasync function fetchAndModify(request) {\n console.log(\"got a request:\", request);\n\n // Send the request on to the origin server.\n const response = await fetch(request);\n\n // Read response body.\n const text = await response.text();\n\n // Modify it.\n const modified = text.replace(\n \"<body>\",\n \"<body style=\\\"background: #ff0;\\\">\");\n\n // Return modified response.\n return new Response(modified, {\n status: response.status,\n statusText: response.statusText,\n headers: response.headers\n });\n}\n",
"size": 603
}
$
The following call checks that the script is associated with the zone. In this case, it's the only script added by this user.
$ python3 -m cli4 /user/workers/scripts
[
{
"created_on": "2018-02-15T00:00:00.000000Z",
"etag": "1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234",
"id": "example-com",
"modified_on": "2018-02-15T00:00:00.000000Z"
}
]
$
Next step is to make sure a route is added for that script on that zone.
$ cli4 --post pattern="example.com/*" script="example-com" /zones/:example.com/workers/routes
{
"id": "12345678901234567890123456789012"
}
$
$ cli4 /zones/:example.com/workers/routes
[
{
"id": "12345678901234567890123456789012",
"pattern": "example.com/*",
"script": "example-com"
}
]
$
With that script added to the zone and the route added, we can now see the the website has been modified because of the Cloudflare Worker.
$ curl -sS https://example.com/ | fgrep '<body'
<body style="background: #ff0;">
$
All this can be removed; hence bringing the website back to its initial state.
$ cli4 --delete /zones/:example.com/workers/script
12345678901234567890123456789012
$ cli4 --delete /zones/:example.com/workers/routes/:12345678901234567890123456789012
true
$
$ curl -sS https://example.com/ | fgrep '<body'
<body>
$
Refer to the Cloudflare Workers API documentation for more information.
The --dump argument to cli4 will produce a list of all the call implemented within the library.

While it's easy to call anything within Cloudflare's API, it's not very useful to add items in here as they will simply return API URL errors. Technically, this is only useful for internal testing within Cloudflare.
The following error can be caused by an out of date SSL/TLS library and/or out of date Python.
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/requests/packages/urllib3/util/ssl_.py:318: SNIMissingWarning: An HTTPS request has been made, but the SNI (Subject Name Indication) extension to TLS is not available on this platform. This may cause the server to present an incorrect TLS certificate, which can cause validation failures. You can upgrade to a newer version of Python to solve this. For more information, see https://urllib3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/security.html#snimissingwarning.
SNIMissingWarning
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/requests/packages/urllib3/util/ssl_.py:122: InsecurePlatformWarning: A true SSLContext object is not available. This prevents urllib3 from configuring SSL appropriately and may cause certain SSL connections to fail. You can upgrade to a newer version of Python to solve this. For more information, see https://urllib3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/security.html#insecureplatformwarning.

As of May/June 2016 the code is now tested against pylint. This was required in order to move the codebase into Python 3.x. The motivation for this came from Danielle Madeley (danni).
While the codebase has been edited to run on Python 3.x, there's not been enough Python 3.x testing performed. If you can help in this regard; please contact the maintainers.
This is based on work by Felix Wong (gnowxilef) found here. It has been seriously expanded upon.
