  -p 49312:49312 \
  crazymax/cloudflared:latest

Notes

Performance issues

For a DNS server with lots of short-lived connections, you may wish to consider adding --net=host to the run command or network_mode: "host" in your compose file for performance reasons (see #22). However, it is not required and some shared container hosting services may not allow it. You should also be aware --net=host can be a security risk in some situations. The Center for Internet Security - Docker 1.6 Benchmark recommends against this mode since it essentially tells Docker to not containerize the container's networking, thereby giving it full access to the host machine's network interfaces. It also mentions this option could cause the container to do unexpected things such as shutting down the Docker host as referenced in moby/moby#6401. For the most secure deployment, unrelated services with confidential data should not be run on the same host or VPS. In such cases, using --net=host should have limited impact on security.

Use with Pi-hole

Pi-hole currently provides documentation to manually set up DNS-Over-HTTPS with Cloudflared.

With Docker and this image, it's quite easy to use it with Pi-hole. Take a look at this simple docker compose template and you're ready to go.

Upgrade

To upgrade, pull the newer image and launch the container :

docker-compose pull
docker-compose up -d
