Do

NS.newUniqueId()

/

NS.idFromName(name)

, or

NS.get(id)

incur costs? Or are they billed as reads or are reads/writes related to

this.state.storage

reads?

No cost for the first 3.

fetch

would be where you're charged for invocation, and yes

state.storage

are where read/writes are billed

Yes, I could use a DO to handle consistency, then place it in the kv to be available everywhere... So according to Brett, there is no benefit in that, so...

So, you’ve built R2 on Durable objects, D1, and queues. You got any plans for full text search? Pretty please.

There are some projects exploring this already. Lyra.js should be DO compatible, and https://github.com/drivly/searches.do was built for Durable Objects

Though there are definitely some limitations that will be hard to overcome

I'm having some issues getting a DO that works locally to work on the live pages.dev site, is this because pages still ignores wrangler.toml even if using "Pages Functions" in advanced mode? I'm not sure what to do to use DO from pages

Weird question: Is it possible to run arbitrary external code from within a durable object? Like if wanted to give users their own durable objects and expose an interface for their to iterate over rows and run JS over them, but not let them write, delete, etc.

Do yall think we will ever get durable objects on free tier?

When using durable objects, how can i access storage.get and storage.put outside of the class?

Pass the class to the function?

Could you send an example? Doesn’t seem to work

Thanks, is this the only way?

You could try to hoist it into the global scope, but I would highly recommend against it.

Alright thank you!

No problem!

Anyone know how to use DO from within pages functions? is there a way or should I try a different solution? the docs seem to imply you create the binding in the web UI but it doesn't show anything there

Have you created a DO yet? You need to create one before you can bind it in pages

that's probably the thing I don't get, how do you create a DO? my DO is currently imported into the same code bundle I'm uploading to pages functions, but I guess that's not enough

You create the DO with workers

so I create an empty worker that just imports the DO and add it to the wrangler file?

ok I think that works, it's just so clunky :/ I feel the docs do a terrible job of explaining this whole thing

thanks!

Based on my understanding of DOs, I'm not sure much of the advice you got is correct. They are defined with a JS class, but they run as a separate remote process, meaning you can't just pass the class around, use a closure, etc, everything has to be done via message passing. You use the stub to pass a message (specifically a Request object) from a worker or another DO, you use your the fetch function inside the DO to handle the request. And if the request is going to tell the DO to do a .get() or .put() on the behalf of another DO or worker, you need to define for yourself a little api so the requests contain the get and put instructions. If you haven't done so already, you might just read through these docs: https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/learning/using-durable-objects/ https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/runtime-apis/durable-objects/

Hey is the number of classes you can make for durable objects unlimited too?

As long as they fit within the size of the script/script number limit, iirc

Also, WDL is currently experiencing issues with AE queries. Gonna try to get a patch out for that asap

script number limit? I don't see that in the docs

oh I see, it's a worker limit
