for me, this is the difference between hostnames (

${id}

) and domain names (

${id}.durableobjects.workers.dev

), but i get that it might be a bit too in-the-weeds for many.

(worker design decisions have been so good it definitely makes me reflect on my own taste in this case, ha.)

Same boat... just applied to Y Combinator 2021 with a currently 100% CF concept (Workers + KV), and while fun/fast, the timing synchronicity issues w KV can't cut it for live updates... DO would solve it, allowing me to still showcase this as a 100% CF solution without diving to something like Firestore or whatever as a synced backend with KV in front...

Either way, my emergency isn't the team's emergency - so just know I'm stoked to get my hands on them (at some point)!

We really can’t publicly commit to dates, especially not with projects like this, where new information can easily push out an open beta by days or even weeks. But soon is certainly our current line of thinking AFAIK.

Hey, I'm working on a DO project and I was wondering if there's any code examples somewhere of rust-wasm integration?

I also need help with a durable objects project. Because the DO is a JS class how do we do that with rust?

Sorry, we haven't come up with a template for Rust bindings yet. It should be possible ("just" build tooling work) but you'll likely need to work out a lot of the details yourself.

I've heard that there's a new wrangler version coming through soon with durable objects support. How far away is that?

🙂 https://github.com/cloudflare/wrangler/releases/tag/v1.15.0-custom-builds-rc.1

oh boy oh boy, the ability to upload es modules is extremely exciting

i hate to ask it, but is there any chance we could open this functionality up to the public without the need to be in the DO beta?

this is exactly what I need (exploring SSR using vitejs)

or perhaps its locked up since it might be possible to declare DO instances using the wrangler cli with this functionality?

Right now my workers are 1 giant monolith, which is nice, reminds me of the early days of Javascript.

Release notes for workers this week are relevant to anyone doing DO and WebSockets 😃 https://community.cloudflare.com/t/2021-3-26-workers-release-notes/255525

❤️ ohhh, and it works like a charm!

Out of curiosity (and a project idea), does DO support outgoing websockets?

I believe so, but it's not documented yet as far as I know. See https://discord.com/channels/595317990191398933/773219443911819284/818557420397002782 for some discussion.

woo! discord bot in a DO

If you want to write a discord bot these days you should totally use regular workers and their slash command API.

I would very much like to play around with Oso + Durable Objects, when/if I get beta-approved.

Any news of last weeks progress in DOs?

That's new. And it supports webhooks!

But doesn't help me with a role maintenance bot. 🙂

What does such role maintenance bot exactly do?

Automatically set/remove roles for people based on an external dataset.

(in my case, setting/maintaining member roles on people who are paid-up members.)

Might be able to make it work with webhooks+cron tho.

yep was just about to say, you could do that
