# Cloudflare Error Page Generator

## What does this project do?

This project creates customized error pages that mimics the well-known Cloudflare error page. You can also embed it into your website.

## Online Editor

Here's an editor for the error page. You can try this out [here](https://virt.moe/cloudflare-error-page/editor/).

## Quickstart for Programmers

### Python

Install `cloudflare-error-page` with pip.

``` Bash
pip install git+https://github.com/donlon/cloudflare-error-page.git
```

Then you can generate an error page based on parameters you like. (See [example.py](examples/example.py))

``` Python
import webbrowser
from cloudflare_error_page import render as render_cf_error_page

# This function renders an error page based on the input parameters
error_page = render_cf_error_page({
    # Browser status is ok
    'browser_status': {
        "status": 'ok',
    },
    # Cloudflare status is error
    'cloudflare_status': {
        "status": 'error',
        "status_text": 'Error',
    },
    # Host status is also ok
    'host_status': {
        "status": 'ok',
        "location": 'example.com',
    },
    # can be 'browser', 'cloudflare', or 'host'
    'error_source': 'cloudflare',

    # Texts shown in the bottom of the page
    'what_happened': '<p>There is an internal server error on Cloudflare\'s network.</p>',
    'what_can_i_do': '<p>Please try again in a few minutes.</p>',
})

with open('error.html', 'w') as f:
    f.write(error_page)

webbrowser.open('error.html')
```
