    Hey guys, has anyone here tried deploying Cython code on a worker?
  • n
    trying to get my hands on workers... A question.. Does workers further processed by cloudflare functions eg. I am using custom html in workers including javascript code, will it further processed with RocketLoader and minify the code? or do we need to specifically enable it? I see using runtime api but can't see RocketLoader.
  • n
    Copy code
    const html = '<!DOCTYPE html><body><p>testing@testingg.com</p></body>'

async function handleRequest(request) {
    return new Response(html,{
        headers: {
            "content-type": "text/html;charset=UTF-8",
        },
    })
}
addEventListener("fetch", event => {
    let newreq = new Request(fetch(event.request, {cf:{scrapeShield:true}}))
    return event.respondWith(handleRequest(newreq))
})

    what's the right way to pass CF function in request?
  • g
    I'm pretty certain that if you're using Workers, Rocket Loader isn't injected into your page.

    https://twitter.com/dinasaur_404/status/1351703331744321536?s=21 i’m pretty sure a few folks here have asked about self-serve ssl for saas in the past

    @rita me me me 🙂
  • s
    is there doc on how to use node modules with cloudflare workers
  • a
    Workers cannot run Node at this time - though it's something the team is looking at support for this year 🙂
  • s
    Can you use npm modules?
  • a
    Yes!
  • s
    Is there a way to connect to mongodb from workers?
  • a
    Not at the moment, though we're working on a tutorial about connecting to MongoDB through their Realm SDK. Not sure when it'll come out
  • m
    Can you still see top bots and crawlers in the Analytics part of the Cloudflare dashboard when using Workers as your origin?
  • i
    That part shouldn't change.
  • m
    Ok, perhaps it’ll need more time before seeing data there.
  • m
    I’ll keep an eye one it, thanks.

    has anyone played around with creating "animated gifs on the edge"? very specifically, i'm wondering how to cram a couple useful npm modules into a worker. 
    canvas
    + 
    gifencoder
    allow me to create anumated gifs in node, exactly how i'd like.
  • j
    but it's expensive on the server.. i'm wondering if this is a good potential use case for workers
  • j
    and my first attemps a couple months ago were failed: iirc i wasn't able to get those npm modules bundled or working right as a worker.
  • g
    @User made this last year: https://whattimeisitrightnow.fab.dev/
  • g
    Not sure if he published the code anywhere though. But he did say: "i'm pulling a TTF file from KV store, parsing it using opentype.js, then using pureimage to give me a canvas-like API, then using gif-encoder to render the frame the same FAB is deployed twice to try to get more frames under the CPU budget, one of them renders each frame and the other just snips the binary streams together then waits"
  • j
    😮
  • j
    ahh ok - i'll take another crack at my idea. it's definitely possible! thanks!
  • g
    Possible, but resource-intensive. So be wary of hitting limits 🙂
  • g
    oh yeah i'm still waiting for access to Unbound to polish off that demo :)
  • g
    right now I'm considering a rust-based drawing library like https://docs.rs/plotters/0.3.0/plotters/ compiled to WASM to get more complex drawings in shorter time
  • g
    but i haven't had a crack at that properly yet
  • j
    i gotta hang in this discord more.
