Hi all...
last week we created this video playlist to show how to set up remote access to stuff on your home-Labs, for free, using cloudflare tunnels. The examples include node-red and HA, but would work with anything else.
I hope you enjoy

Thanks for sharing, that's great.
Cloudflare's free tier is amazing. I use them for all my DNS needs now as well. Then there is their web protection which catches a load of attacks before they hit your services, their caching and even user authentication and web monitoring.
I started on this and soon found that I needed to install docker on my Pi (which is a non-trivial process)
After googling - this is the sequence of commands I used but it failed on the actual install of the cloudflare container
I don't know anything about docker but I'm assuming this is because the container isn't meant for a Pi?
mkdir demo
sudo chown -R 65532:65532 ~/demo
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh
sudo sh get-docker.sh
sudo usermod -aG docker pi
NOW NEED TO REBOOT TO UPDATE PI USER PERMISSIONS
docker run -v ~/demo:/home/nonroot/.cloudflare cloudflare/cloudflared:2022.3.4 tunnel login
Mmmmm... it looks like there's no arm image of cloudflared on dockerhub.
I will look for my old RPi and try to create a guide for it...
In the meantime, your best choice then is downloading the binary for arm from here: https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-apps/install-and-setup/installation/
The whole install process is the same, just avoid using the "docker run..." and just use the binary commands: "tunnel login" then "tunnel create"...
just bear in mind: the certificate will be created (by default) on /.cloudflared (there's no need to assign permissions, as long you execute the command with root privileges).
