About this project

Cloudflare Tunnels allows us to access systems behind a firewall or ones without a static IP among other things. This can be incredibly useful for people running their own home servers as it enables them to expose applications running on those servers to the internet without needing to port forward or pay for a static IP.

But what about those running home Kubernetes clusters? One could run the tunnel application like any other application on Kubernetes but creating and destroying tunnels would either involve changing the config file in the cluster or using the Cloudflare Tunnel dashboard. This is certainly a valid way but might not be the ideal way, especially if you live and breathe GitOps.

That is where this project comes in. It allows you to create custom resources for Cloudflare Tunnels in your Kubernetes cluster. This means that the Tunnel will be active as long as your custom resource exists and will be updated if your custom resource is updated.
