Homelab through Cloudflare Tunnels

Archivist

Hey everyone,

Not sure if this is possible. But I'd basically like to change my current setup of self-hosting websites in my homelab from using portainer where I setup all docker containers for each website and transition to Wordops. Is it possible to host multiple sites locally with Wordops and then using Cloudflare Tunnel to point to each site?

For example, each website created would be localhost😛ORTNUMBER?

So if I want a wordpress site for domain1.com, I create it using Wordops by using something like wp create localhost😛ORT --wp instead of wp create domain1.com.

Not entirely sure if this is possible, or if it is, how is everyone else doing it?

Thanks in advance!

Hello Archivist,

I haven't use Cloudflare Tunnel yet, so I'm not able to tell if it can be configured this way.
But it's absolutely possible to access to each site using localhost:PORT.
You just have to set the server_name directive to _ in your nginx virtualhost and you can set the port in your ssl.conf file if your site is secured with letsencrypt. Otherwise you can directly add the directive listen PORT; in your virtualhost.
Here an example (for a site secured with letsencrypt) :

Thank you so much! I really appreciate this.

When creating the site, I still have to indicate the domain though, correct? Just to confirm.

Archivist yes you will have to edit your virtualhost manually after creating it with WordOps (and to indicate a domain).
