Hello,
Can anyone here have the script or tutorial on how to update cloudflare IP’s automatically? I have created a cloudflare.conf file and included it on my nginx.conf but I don’t know how to update CF ip’s automatically. I know Cloudflare is changing their IP’s but I don’t want to check and change them manually. Thank you.
Note: I’m using the latest Easyengine.
Cloudflare IPs are available as text files:
https://www.cloudflare.com/ips-v4 https://www.cloudflare.com/ips-v6
You can setup a cron-job to run a script.
The script can update your conf file and reload nginx.
Thank you Sir.
Here’s what I did. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
I created a cloudflare.conf file in /etc/nginx/conf.d
My cloudflare.conf file http://hastebin.com/uvoguzawar.nginx
Then I created a new directory for the updater script.
Here’s my updater script http://hastebin.com/gaselakiyu.pl
Tested the script by running this command
$ /usr/local/www/_cron/cloudflare-ip-ranges-updater.sh
$ cat /etc/nginx/conf.d/cloudflare.conf
It worked!
Then I opened crontab
$ crontab -e
00 04 * * * root /usr/local/www/_cron/cloudflare-ip-ranges-updater.sh >/dev/null 2>&1
I set it to run once a day.
I hope it help others too.
