You could use a Tunnel, and then not expose the server at all

..gwapes Also, is it not very optimal to just have an authorisation header?

You can, but with this method, you literally can't hit the origin at all(barring any issues on CF's side), while with the Auth Header method, a bad actor can still hammer your DB with requests, even if they aren't authorized

.gwapes•11/20/23, 12:12 PM

I’m a bit lost with the last part there. I only actually make the db update if the auth headers value is that “random string”, so it won’t do anything if it’s not right

Hello, I’m Allie!OP•11/20/23, 12:13 PM

Yes, but in this case, if I want to take your DB out of commision, I can just send random requests to your server. The changes won't be able to be applied, but because your server is busy handling my requests, it won't have time to handle your valid changes

But that would be an express like thing, right? Rather then a db thing. Because it’s just busy not doing anything but handling the wrong requests

.gwapes•11/20/23, 12:14 PM

So it would be better to return wrong requests from my cf worker where everything goes through anyway?

Is there an npm package or something similar for how to type the context param here

export default {
  async fetch(request, env, context) {
    // Proxy to origin on unhandled/uncaught exceptions
    context.passThroughOnException();
    throw new Error('Oops');
  },
};

export default {
  async fetch(request, env, context) {

  },
};

hi there, i've deployed my worker, and when i try to access it i get this error

mooon•11/20/23, 9:45 PM

but when i run it locally

mooon•11/20/23, 9:45 PM

it works fine

mooon•11/20/23, 9:45 PM

anyone know why?

kian•11/20/23, 9:49 PM

Try adding https://github.com/rustwasm/console_error_panic_hook

mooon•11/20/23, 9:55 PM

alright

mooon•11/20/23, 9:56 PM

i added it

Please do not post your question in multiple channels per the rules at #

You would have to expose that file somehow. Cloudflare doesn’t provide any ootb file lockers

Chaika•11/21/23, 6:15 PM

What do you mean "raise with Planetscale"? Don't see how they could help you with that lol

You need to make multiple requests to planetscale per invocation/request for Smart Placement to help.
What is the "Direct Connect" option? I was trying to find it in their docs but couldn't find anything. If it's TCP Connect or not using fetch/the http interface, then Smart Placement doesn't work with that

You could use a Tunnel, and then not expose the server at all
