Workers scale very easily not sure about Fauna DB but if it does then it should be good

NNeo What about GraphQL, does that work with Workers?

if you are doing a CORS request, your browser is automatically sending an OPTIONS request

CCyb3r-Jak3 I mean depends on what your API server needs to do. If simple requests handling ...

so having a key value request header will not work?
i put the worker key value in querystring, does this workaround is the best practice ?
does jwt will also work or I will be having a CORS issue once I implement it?

you just need to implement CORS correctly. you aren't even handling the CORS preflight request so of course it won't work

personally I call this function on all responses before returning them to the client:

const enableCORS = (request, response) => {
  const origin = request.headers.get("origin") || "";

  const isAllowedOrigin =
    origin === "http://localhost:3000" ||
    origin.endsWith(".example.com");

  if (isAllowedOrigin) {
    for (const [key, value] of Object.entries({
      "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": origin,
      "Access-Control-Allow-Methods": "POST, DELETE, GET, OPTIONS",
      "Access-Control-Allow-Headers": "*",
    })) {
      response.headers.append(key, value);
    }
  }

  return response;
};

const enableCORS = (request, response) => {
  const origin = request.headers.get("origin") || "";

  const isAllowedOrigin =
    origin === "http://localhost:3000" ||
    origin.endsWith(".example.com");

  if (isAllowedOrigin) {
    for (const [key, value] of Object.entries({
      "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": origin,
      "Access-Control-Allow-Methods": "POST, DELETE, GET, OPTIONS",
      "Access-Control-Allow-Headers": "*",
    })) {
      response.headers.append(key, value);
    }
  }

  return response;
};

const enableCORS = (request, response) => {
  const origin = request.headers.get("origin") || "";

  const isAllowedOrigin =
    origin === "http://localhost:3000" ||
    origin.endsWith(".example.com");

  if (isAllowedOrigin) {
    for (const [key, value] of Object.entries({
      "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": origin,
      "Access-Control-Allow-Methods": "POST, DELETE, GET, OPTIONS",
      "Access-Control-Allow-Headers": "*",
    })) {
      response.headers.append(key, value);
    }
  }

  return response;
};

const enableCORS = (request, response) => {
  const origin = request.headers.get("origin") || "";

  const isAllowedOrigin =
    origin === "http://localhost:3000" ||
    origin.endsWith(".example.com");

  if (isAllowedOrigin) {
    for (const [key, value] of Object.entries({
      "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": origin,
      "Access-Control-Allow-Methods": "POST, DELETE, GET, OPTIONS",
      "Access-Control-Allow-Headers": "*",
    })) {
      response.headers.append(key, value);
    }
  }

  return response;
};

and in my route handling I have a simple

if (request.method === "OPTIONS") {
  return new Response("ok");
}

if (request.method === "OPTIONS") {
  return new Response("ok");
}

if (request.method === "OPTIONS") {
  return new Response("ok");
}

if (request.method === "OPTIONS") {
  return new Response("ok");
}

and this is what ties it together...

const response = await handleRequest(request, env, context, sentry);

return enableCORS(request, response);

const response = await handleRequest(request, env, context, sentry);

return enableCORS(request, response);

const response = await handleRequest(request, env, context, sentry);

return enableCORS(request, response);

const response = await handleRequest(request, env, context, sentry);

return enableCORS(request, response);

What's your Worker code?

NNeo Is Cloudflare Workers good for making an API server?

all of our public facing API services are on Cloudflare Workers, and even most of the private APIs are also on Workers.

headers

headers

is always going to be blank other than

pix-api

pix-api

pix-api

pix-api in that scenario.

K

kian•5/24/23, 3:50 PM

You're not using the request headers, you define

headers

headers

with

let headers = new Headers();

let headers = new Headers();

let headers = new Headers();

let headers = new Headers(); which is an empty object and then only contains the

pix-api

pix-api

pix-api

pix-api header which you set.

K

kian•5/24/23, 3:50 PM

If you want to use the request headers, that'd be

ctx.req.headers

ctx.req.headers

ctx.req.headers

ctx.req.headers

hi

with the upcoming workers snippets, in theory i should be able to make a "free" load balancer for an api; and the only real limit should be the dns resolution fees, is that correct (which only start at 1m/month)?

K

kian•5/24/23, 4:11 PM

Snippets can only make 1 subrequest so you wouldn't be able to do that.

K

kian•5/24/23, 4:11 PM

Well, you can do Math.random and select a subdomain based on that

K

kian•5/24/23, 4:11 PM

but you wouldn't be able to hit one and then decide to fallback if it failed

Neiki•5/24/23, 4:44 PM

can i somehow send me an email or sending with an webhook if that happens again? like let me notify

NNeiki can i somehow send me an email or sending with an webhook if that happens again?...

Neiki•5/24/23, 4:56 PM

i cant find anything to workers or crons in the notifications tab, only about pages

Kkian Well, you can do Math.random and select a subdomain based on that

T

tobi•5/24/23, 5:04 PM

yeah, fallback would not be a possibility. but i could do either random, or based on some "hash" of the request ip + maybe some user cookie or sth.

T

tobi•5/24/23, 5:07 PM

@kiannh then, if 1 request can be split to multiple subdomains, one could assign only functioning servers to those subdomains, i.e. if i know one of my servers is down, i change its subdomain to point to a known good server
