Go Reference Test Go Report Card

Note: This library is under active development as we expand it to cover our (expanding!) API. Consider the public API of this package a little unstable as we work towards a v1.0.

A Go library for interacting with Cloudflare's API v4. This library allows you to:

  • Manage and automate changes to your DNS records within Cloudflare
  • Manage and automate changes to your zones (domains) on Cloudflare, including adding new zones to your account
  • List and modify the status of WAF (Web Application Firewall) rules for your zones
  • Fetch Cloudflare's IP ranges for automating your firewall whitelisting

A command-line client, flarectl, is also available as part of this project.

Features

The current feature list includes:

  • Cache purging
  • Cloudflare IPs
  • Custom hostnames
  • DNS Firewall
  • DNS Records
  • Firewall (partial)
  • Gateway Locations
  • Keyless SSL
  • Load Balancing
  • Logpush Jobs
  • Magic Transit / Magic WAN
  • mTLS Certificate Store
  • Notifications
  • Organization Administration
  • Origin CA
  • Railgun administration
  • Rate Limiting
  • User Administration (partial)
  • Web Application Firewall (WAF)
  • Workers KV
  • Zone cache settings
  • Zone Lockdown and User-Agent Block rules
  • Zones
  • Managed Headers

Installation

You need a working Go environment. We officially support only currently supported Go versions according to Go project's release policy.

go get github.com/cloudflare/cloudflare-go

Getting Started

package main

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"
	"log"
	"os"

	"github.com/cloudflare/cloudflare-go"
)

func main() {
	// Construct a new API object using a global API key
	api, err := cloudflare.New(os.Getenv("CLOUDFLARE_API_KEY"), os.Getenv("CLOUDFLARE_API_EMAIL"))
	// alternatively, you can use a scoped API token
	// api, err := cloudflare.NewWithAPIToken(os.Getenv("CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN"))
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	// Most API calls require a Context
	ctx := context.Background()

	// Fetch user details on the account
	u, err := api.UserDetails(ctx)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	// Print user details
	fmt.Println(u)

	// Fetch the zone ID
	id, err := api.ZoneIDByName("example.com") // Assuming example.com exists in your Cloudflare account already
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	// Fetch zone details
	zone, err := api.ZoneDetails(ctx, id)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	// Print zone details
	fmt.Println(zone)
}

Also refer to the API documentation for how to use this package in-depth.
