Automatically connects you to a Cloudflare tunnel without having to install cloudflared separately.
To be able to use the mod you have to be on the operating system Windows, Linux, or MacOS.
For more detailed instructions, you can also read Varun A's blog post. The blog post can be found here.
You need to set up cloudflare on your server for this to work. There's plenty of guides on how to do this elsewhere.
Make sure in your config file (possibly in /etc/cloudflared/config.yml
) you have the lines:
- hostname: example.domain.net
service: tcp://localhost:25565
Replace example.domain.net
with the correct subdomain you want to use. If you're running multiple instances (eg. with docker), change the port 25565 to whatever port you're using.
Restart the cloudflare daemon (sudo systemctl restart cloudflared
) to apply the changes.
Add the correct DNS entry: go to Cloudflare dashboard, go to your website and DNS entries, then add a new CNAME DNS entry with your subdomain and set the target to <tunnelID>.cfargotunnel.com
, with the tunnel ID found in the cloudflare config.yml file.
If your server admin has properly configured their server you should be able to connect to the server as usual. No extra configuration is needed.
If your server admin has not properly configured their server, you will need to add their server to the forced_tunnels.json
file in the modflared config folder.
["example.domain.net", "example2.domain.net"]
Install Cloudflared as described in the “Configuring Cloudflared” part above.
For the hostname that you want your players to connect to (eg. example.domain.net
), create a TXT dns record with either of the following values:
cloudflared-use-tunnel
- This will make modflared connect to the tunnel on the hostname itself (eg.example.domain.net
)cloudflared-route=<route>
- This will make modflared connect to the tunnel under the hostname of<route>
. (ex. settingcloudflared-route=example2.domain.net
will make modflared connect to the tunnel onexample2.domain.net
instead ofexample.domain.net
)
