After deploying with Hakuba on Vercel, I found that it was hard to access vercel.app directly without a proxy, so I tried to fix it.

I found two main blog:

  1. How to use cloudflare’s domain name resolution service for domains of AliCloud.
  2. How to resolve a domain name in cloudflare.

Firstly, register a account in cloudflare and add the AliCloud domain, then you will get two DNS name server address. Go to AliCloud Domain Console and replace the original servers.

Now you have already set all for the domain, but you have wait until it takes effect. After that, you should copy the DNS Settings from AliCloud to cloudflare.

[!TIP] If you got a ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS, you may need to set SSL/TTL encryption mode from flexible to full.

Todo

  • Fix the DNS Settings for original server like miniflux and qinglong. Without SSL certification there are bugs while accessing the website.

    I found that it takes time for the settings to become effective, today I checked the website and it works well.

  • Seems origin websites using the domain get slower while accessing. Figure it out.

    see #26 for detailed info.
