I'm looking into setting up https for my local services. Everything is currently set up using the official caddy docker image.

I want to use now connect caddy to cloudflare to resolve the DNS 01. It looks like this is possible with a drop in replacement for caddy from either https://github.com/CaddyBuilds/caddy-cloudflare or https://github.com/serfriz/caddy-custom-builds

Is anyone here using these builds? Are they reliable? Is there an alternative I havent considered?

I have a Dockerifle like that:

ARG CADDY_VERSION=2.11.3
FROM caddy:${CADDY_VERSION}-builder-alpine AS builder

RUN xcaddy build \
    --with github.com/caddy-dns/cloudflare

FROM caddy:${CADDY_VERSION}-alpine

COPY --from=builder /usr/bin/caddy /usr/bin/caddy

and the docker-compose.yml file I use:

services:
  caddy:
    pull_policy: build
    build:
      context: .

And to build new versions I modify the Dockerfile after doing a docker compose down, and then to build the new version I use docker compose up.
