TLDR: Use workers for individual functions. use Pages for webpages. Pages is more full featured but uses workers under the hood.

I have a pages project connected to my gitlab project. I accidentally deleted the webhook in my gitlab project when removing another webhook and, well it is now gone.

Is there anyway to get the pages project to recreate the webhook?

For argument sake say I'm hosting a remix site, I still don't see one being more suitable than the other

StiginOP•2/13/23, 4:56 PM

You would use Pages.

johtso•2/13/23, 4:56 PM

for both of them I would define a worker that handles any request and passes it to the relevant function for the framework

StiginOP•2/13/23, 4:56 PM

As you can can build a deployment pipeline through Github et al.

johtso•2/13/23, 4:56 PM

aha, so auto deployment, that's a nice feature to have

johtso•2/13/23, 4:57 PM

I guess with workers I would have to do my own thing with github actions?

StiginOP•2/13/23, 4:57 PM

Yep

johtso•2/13/23, 5:00 PM

Are different git branches completely isolated when they are deployed? say I export a durable object, does it live in a completely separate namespace?

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:01 PM

Yes. - You can bind D1 , R2 , Durable objects et al individually to pages projects.

johtso•2/13/23, 5:02 PM

and what resources are included with CF Pages, I'm guessing the worker, KV for serving of static assets (but only if you use the automatic functionality?), but not DOs?

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:02 PM

CF Pages exists on its own. You can bolt on any number of combinations of other products on top.

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:02 PM

Deploying a Remix app and require KV storage? Bind a KV storage namespace to your project and then call it with KV.get xxxx

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:03 PM

need photos

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:03 PM

as well?

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:03 PM

Bind R2 and leverage R2s api.

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:04 PM

So this is for a pages site. You can add bindings for each product to use

johtso•2/13/23, 5:04 PM

but does CF Pages use KV to serve static assets under the hood?

johtso•2/13/23, 5:04 PM

and that's included in the price?

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:04 PM

No idea, thats their internal IP for their pages product.

johtso•2/13/23, 5:05 PM

ah okay.. so if I manually handle the static assets then I'd be setting up KV and paying for it separately

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:06 PM

Depends how you architect it

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:06 PM

But using R2 for images would incur a fee although there is a generous free tier.

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:06 PM

So you'd have your Pages fee + R2 + KV costs.

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:06 PM

but pages is pretty much free unless your dev team is bigger than 3 people and require concurrent builds.

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:07 PM

the costs you'll incur if you're going to use cloudflare pages, is those additional services that you bind to the pages that you serve.

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:09 PM

Does that make sense?

johtso•2/13/23, 5:09 PM

oh wow for some reason I got muddled between the workers and pages pricing, pages doesn't impose a request limit on the free tier

johtso•2/13/23, 5:09 PM

that's awesome

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:09 PM

Yep

johtso•2/13/23, 5:10 PM

I only just realised that the project template I'm looking at is using workers rather than pages

johtso•2/13/23, 5:10 PM

I wonder how hard it would be to modify it to work on pages

johtso•2/13/23, 5:12 PM

I guess I just need to know where all the static files will be, and it needs to output a _worker.js_worker.js

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:13 PM

What framework are you using?

johtso•2/13/23, 5:18 PM

@Stigin I'm aiming for a remix + DO setup.. this is the template I'm looking at https://github.com/Girish21/remix-cloudflare-workers-template

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:23 PM

Yeh I can see where your question came from...

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:23 PM

I would go direct down the pages route imho

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:23 PM

their template looks good

StiginOP•2/13/23, 5:23 PM

But imho its a C&P from the cloudflare docs for the most part.

johtso•2/13/23, 5:26 PM

@Stigin i feel like I should be able to get it working okay. I quite like how they've structured the project neatly with turborepo.. but I'm not entirely clear how I'd get Pages to see my "advanced mode" worker definition when the worker is defined as a module like that

johtso•2/13/23, 5:27 PM

does it have to be a single files named _worker.js_worker.js (or _worker.ts_worker.ts?) in the root of the project?

johtso•2/13/23, 5:35 PM

I see Pages functions support .ts.ts does that apply to _worker_worker too?
