class cf_rules.Cloudflare(folder: str | None = None)

__init__(folder: str | None = None)

Initialize Cloudflare class

Specify a folder argument where expressions will be saved

>>> cf = Cloudflare("my_expressions")

auth_key(email: str, key: str) → dict

Get your global API Key through cloudflare profile (API Keys section)

Raises:

Error – Email or key is not provided

Warning

This will grant all domains access to this API library, prefer using auth_token()

https://dash.cloudflare.com/profile/api-tokens

• email -> Email account

• key -> Global API Key

>>> cf.auth_key("cloudflare@example.com", "your-global-api-key")
>>> {"success": True, "result": {"id": "a1b2c3", "email": "cloudflare@example.com", ...}}
# OR
>>> {"success": False, "errors": [{"code": 6003, "message": "Invalid request headers", ...}]}

auth_token(bearer_token: str) → dict

Generate a specific token through cloudflare profile (API Tokens section)

Raises:

Error – Bearer token is not provided

Note

This will grant only specific domains/permissions related access to this API library

https://dash.cloudflare.com/profile/api-tokens

• bearer_token -> API Token

>>> cf.auth_token("your-specific-bearer-token")
>>> {"success": True, "result": {"id": "a1b2c3", "status": "active"}, ...}
# OR
>>> {"success": False, "errors": [{"code": 1000, "message": "Invalid API token"}], ...}

get_domains() → dict

Get all domains

Raises:

Error – If not authenticated (use auth_key(email, key) or auth_token(bearer_token))

>>> cf.get_domains()
>>> {"count": 2, "domains": ["example.com", "example.fr"], "result": [{"id": "a1b2c3", "name": "example.com", ...}, ...]}

property domains: list[DomainObject]

Get all domains as a list of DomainObject

Access any value of the object with the dot operator

Better handling compared to get_domains(), return directly the result key of the function

>>> cf.domains

get_domain(domain_name: str) → DomainObject

Get a specific domain as DomainObject

Raises:

• Error – If not authenticated (use auth_key(email, key) or auth_token(bearer_token))

• Error – If domain is not found (list all domains using cf.domains)

Important

This function is the “core” for all other functions, it is needed for every other function to work

>>> cf.get_domain("example.com")
>>> {"id": "a1b2c3", "name": "example.com", ...}
>>> domain = cf.get_domain("example.fr")
>>> domain.name # OR domain["name"]
>>> "example.fr"

set_plan(domain_name: str)

Save current website plan

Note

Will define the current plan of the website in the instance of the class

>>> cf.set_plan("example.com")
# Now the maximum available rules for this domain depends on the current plan

Get all rulesets from a specific domain

>>> cf.get_rulesets("example.com")
>>> {"count": 4, "rulesets": ["default", "Cloudflare Normalization Ruleset", ...], "result": [{"id": "a1b2c3", "name": "default", ...}]}

rulesets(domain_name: str) → list[RulesetObject]

Get all rulesets as a list of RulesetObject

Access any value of the object with the dot operator

Better handling compared to get_rulesets(), return directly the result key of the function

>>> cf.rulesets
>>> [{"id": "a1b2c3", "name": "default", ...}, {"id": "d4e5f6", "name": "Cloudflare Normalization Ruleset", ...}]

get_custom_ruleset(domain_name: str) → RulesetObject

Get the custom ruleset from a specific domain as RulesetObject

It should be the only ruleset with the source “firewall_custom” as per Cloudflare’s documentation. This is the ruleset where all custom rules are stored.

Raises:

Error – If no custom ruleset is found

>>> cf.get_custom_ruleset("example.com")
>>> {"id": "a1b2c3", "name": "default", "source": "firewall_custom", ...}

get_rules(domain_name: str) → dict

Get all rules from a specific domain

Raises:

Error – If no rules are found

>>> cf.get_rules("example.com")
>>> {"count": 3, "rules": ["Bad Bots", "Bad IP", "Bad AS"], "result": [{"id": "a1b2c3", "description": "Bad Bots", ...}, ...]}

rules(domain_name: str) → list[RuleObject]

Get all rules as a list of RuleObject

Access any value of the object with the dot operator

Better handling compared to get_rules(), return directly the result key of the function

>>> cf.rules
>>> [{"id": "a1b2c3", "description": "Bad Bots", ...}, {"id": "d4e5f6", "description": "Bad IP", ...}, ...]

get_rule(domain_name: str, *, rule_name: str | None = None, rule_id: str | None = None) → RuleObject

Raises:

• Error – Rule name or rule ID is not provided

• Error – If no rule is found with the specified name

>>> cf.get_rule("example.com", rule_name="Bad Bots")
>>> {"id": "a1b2c3", "enabled": True, "action": "block", "description": "Bad Bots", "expression": "(http.user_agent contains "DotBot")", ...}

export_rules(domain_name: str) → True

Note

Will save all expressions into multiple files in the folder specified in Cloudflare’s constructor

>>> cf.export_rules("example.com")
# "Bad Bots.txt", "Bad IP.txt", "Bad AS.txt" files created in "my_expressions" folder

export_rule(domain_name: str, *, rule_name: str | None = None, rule_id: str | None = None) → True

Export the expression of a rule in a txt file

Raises:

Error – Rule name or rule ID is not provided

create_rule(domain_name: str, rule_file: str, rule_name: str | None = None, action: str | None = None) → bool

Raises:

• Error – Rule file is not found

• Error – Rule already exists in remote WAF

• Error – Cannot create more rules (5 used / 5 available depending on the current plan)

>>> cf.create_rule("example.com", "Bad URL.txt", action="managed_challenge")
# Create a rule with the expression in "Bad URL.txt" and override the action to "managed_challenge"
>>> cf.create_rule("example.com", "Bad IP.txt", "Not allowed IP")
# Create a rule named "Not allowed IP" with the expression in "Bad IP.txt" with the action in the header of the file

update_rule(domain_name: str, rule_file: str, rule_name: str | None = None, action: str | None = None) → bool

Update a rule with a specific expression

Raises:

Error – Rule file is not found

Todo

First modify “Bad Bots.txt” by changing the expression or adding a new rule

>>> cf.update_rule("example.com", "Bad Bots.txt")
# Will update the remote rule "Bad Bots" with the expression in "Bad Bots.txt"
>>> cf.update_rule("example.com", "Bad IP.txt", "Not allowed IP", "block")

Available actions as string: managed_challenge, js_challenge, challenge, block, skip, log

Raises:

Error – Cannot create more rules (5 used / 5 available depending on the current plan)

Note

If you have a better plan, please register your plan using the method set_plan(domain_name)
