Cloudflare Image Uploader

Cloudflare Image Uploader

Overview

The Cloudflare Image Uploader is a Python script designed to automate the bulk uploading of images to Cloudflare. It handles image uploads, manages duplicates by renaming, moves processed images to a designated directory, and generates a Markdown file listing all uploaded images for easy access and reference. This tool simplifies the management of web content images, especially for users with multiple images to upload and organize.

Features

  • Bulk Uploads: Automatically uploads multiple images to Cloudflare in one go.
  • Duplicate Handling: Renames duplicate images to ensure uniqueness without overwriting existing files.
  • Processed Images Directory: Moves images to a “processed” directory after successful upload.
  • Markdown Catalog Generation: Creates a .md file listing all uploaded images with URLs, making it easy to incorporate images into web content.

  • Cloudflare account and API token with permissions to upload images.
  • Basic familiarity with Python and running scripts from the command line.
