Automatically update banned IP list in Cloudflare from CSF

We have released a simple bash script, named Flarewall, /http://flarewall.net, that bridges Cloudflare's blocking service with CSF's IP banning abilities. Each time CSF bans an IP address, the offending IP address gets sent to Cloudflare's list of blocked addresses using Cloudflare's API. When the temporary ban expires in CSF, the offending IP gets removed from Cloudflare. All of this is done automatically. This might save some admin headache when troubleshooting high server loads due to brute force attacks on wp-login.php even though Cloudflare is being used, for example. The offending IP is simultaneously banned in CSF and blocked in Cloudflare, depending on the configured triggers defined in CSF.
