Install the Cloudflare Daemon (cloudflared) in Termux

cfd-termux.sh

#!/bin/sh

echo 'NOTE: You can now install cloudflared directly from Termux repos.'
echo 'NOTE: To install it from source instead, open the script and comment out the next two lines.'
pkg install cloudflared
exit
# ^ comment out these lines to proceed with the script

echo "--upgrading packages"
yes "" | pkg update

echo "-- installing dependancies: golang git debianutils make"
yes "" | pkg install golang git debianutils make

echo "-- downloading cloudflared source"
git clone https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflared.git --depth=1
cd cloudflared
sed -i 's/linux/android/g' Makefile

echo "-- building and installing cloudflared" 
make cloudflared
install cloudflared /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin

echo "-- done!"

Good news, it has been packaged for Termux and it can now be installed with "pkg i cloudflared" or just "apt install cloudflared" (termux/termux-packages#9304)

Woah!! I had considered trying to get them to do this at one point but never found the time.
Thank you for letting me know! 🎉♥️

Updated the script to notify and install from repos directly, but kept the rest for posterity and in case anyone is curious in future.

Erisa, What is the proper way to run cloudflared from termux. My phone is not rooted. so the
sudo cloudflared service install does not work. Is there another way i can run this as a service from a phone that's not rooted ?

You should be able to run apt update then apt install cloudflared or pkg run cloudflared, don't need root for commands without su or sudo.
