It should? It worked for me in the browser.

Oh wait, it's a map...

Darn

Hold on...

Yeah then, nevermind...

Looking

sent you a DM request

I have had the same problem and have asked this question several times on the pages channels and never get a complete example. If someone has this working, please help @frankichiro and me out. 🙂

Yes, please help with this. This is the only thing right now that prevents me from having a complete local development workflow for Cloudflare. It's slowing down development a lot to not be able to test my Durable Objects properly before publishing.

You tried this? > An external Durable Object can be referenced using `wrangler pages dev ./public --do MyDO=MyDurableObject@api `where the Durable Object is made available on

env.MyDO

, and is described in a Workers service

(name = "api")

with the class name

MyDurableObject

. > > You must have the `api `Workers service running in as another

wrangler dev

process elsewhere already in order to reference that object. - Greg Brimble on Github https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/pull/1641

Ok, I just tested this and it does not work. The

@api

part removed the message about the DO not being found, but the DO does not show up in the

context.env

variable in my Pages function. I have my Worker running in a separate process and it lists my DO as an active binding.

isn't it just found to the

env

variable without a

context

?

Not on Pages

Is this considered a bug then?

No, just got it working, with a fresh start. Want me to make a repo?

Yes please!

Or at least, it should work.

Good, because I am not seeing what I'm missing here.

Thanks! I'll investigate 🙂

Running

wrangler dev --local
```and

wrangler pages dev ./public --do MyDO=MyDurableObject@api ```

Ok, your example works for me too, so it seems to be something else on my end that is misconfigured. I will try to find the issue. Meanwhile, thanks a lot for your help!

No problem, happy to help! Also, @Larry, does this fix your issue?

Hey, I found the problem. I was simply using

wrangler dev

instead of

wrangler dev --local

and this made all the difference.

Oh yeah, the dev server has to be local, as otherwise it isn't in the

wrangler

registry.

I'm confused as to why this blog post says I can just put a DO class in a durable_objects directory in my Pages project, but the documentation says something about needing a separate worker.. https://blog.cloudflare.com/building-full-stack-with-pages/

Looks like that blog post is incorrect

Also what about this "advanced mode" that I've seen talked about, where you define your pages worker explicitly instead of using the functions directory with the built in routing functionality, which supposedly lets you export your DO class directly
