i dont know if this even is allowed / recommended but I have the following Idea in mind and wanted to know if pages & workers (in combination) work in that use-case.

Astro SSR Page that only holds the frontend / builds the ui --> hosted on dashboard.mydomain.com
Worker who does all the "business logic" --> hosted on dashboard.mydomain.com/api (as worker route)

Is the frontend able to request data from the backend if it is hosted in that way or is this not allowed ?

You could do this, but why not just run the API from within Astro?

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 4:06 PM

i like to have things seperated, because Astro is just a simple PoC but the backend is already bigger than I thought. I will probably switch UI Framework (next or smth like that) in the future

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/23/24, 4:07 PM

You can isolate the backend into a different package, then have a simple shim within Astro that passes the request into the backend

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/23/24, 4:07 PM

Then you can keep them separate, but within the same app

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/23/24, 4:07 PM

And the backend is always in sync with the frontend

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 4:09 PM

im already using rfc (from hono) to have end to end safety, so its always in sync. but Ive never worked with a shim.

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 4:10 PM

i was just curios if this setup works correcly, thanks for the input

ahhh another "bonus point" with my current setup is that its easier to interact with Cloudflare Bindings (especially D1). I really did not enjoy how astro handles bindings...

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/23/24, 4:13 PM

If you are willing to get a little jiggy, you could probably make your “Worker” call Astro instead?

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/23/24, 4:13 PM

But yeah, this seems more complex

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 4:14 PM

just out of curiosity, when I call fetch(/api)fetch(/api) in Astro this will probably not work because the request will not go through the edge network (completely), right ? - I will have to use the full url... or am I mistaken

Not really. Pages uses branches, though you can only define explicit environments for “production”, and “everything else”

For dev, or when deployed?

both

i believe for local it only uses a local sqlite database for some reason (since d1 cant be used locally)

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 4:16 PM

If im not mistaken I already tried that out a bit ago, and got 404 all over the board... then I had to deploy my worker under a new subdomain (like api.dashboard.mydomain.com)... but Astro (and wrangler) received a lot of updates... xd

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 4:18 PM

but I really hate that setup xd. I like isolation (per process / page).

Bbun both

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/23/24, 4:18 PM

You can use the wrangler.toml for local, but I don’t think that supports environments. As for the deployed version, that has to be configured via the dash

Did you deploy it as a route, or as a Custom Domain?

bun•2/23/24, 4:19 PM

well i guess i can pass in --d1--d1 arguments --kv--kv arguments manually

HHello, I’m Allie!Did you deploy it as a route, or as a Custom Domain?

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 4:19 PM

first as a route really like dashboard.mydomain.com/api and secondly as custom domain api.dashboard.mydomain.com

The astro page is always under custom domain (dashboard.mydomain.com)

Bbun well i guess i can pass in `--d1` arguments `--kv` arguments manually

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/23/24, 4:19 PM

That’s probably the easiest, though it looks kind of ugly

as I said, I tried that really long ago (proably 8+ months ago) and just wanted to ask before I go all in in that direction aswell. I can come back if I did some tests

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 7:31 PM

sorry for pinging you / answering. But ive just spent time deploying everything (or making a good staging environment, with Zero Trust, etc -- the basics). But a request from dashboard.mydomain.com/ping to dashboard.mydomain.com/api/v1/ping does not work (it just returns 404 and the tail does not see the request registered). I dug a bit deeper and do I have to exclude / include a specific route in the _routes.json that is generated by astro?

Left backend (worker) right frontend (pages)

Bildschirmfoto_2024-02-23_um_20.31.16.png

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 7:32 PM

is there a way to explicity tell the page that some routes should NOT be handled by the page itself because something else is taking care of it (in that case the worker) ?

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 7:34 PM

when using exlude: ["/api/*"]exlude: ["/api/*"] I get the following error from pages:
(log) TypeError: Fetch API cannot load: /api/v1/ping(log) TypeError: Fetch API cannot load: /api/v1/ping

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/23/24, 7:38 PM

If the Worker is being called at all, then it should be called before Pages

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 7:38 PM

in the screenshot you can see that it is not called at all, because the pages tail has the api/v1/ping call

Hello, I’m Allie!•2/23/24, 7:39 PM

Yeah, so something else is happening. What is the route for your Worker?

F0rceOP•2/23/24, 7:39 PM

route = { pattern = "dashboard.ruxiom.dev/api/*", zone_name = "ruxiom.dev" }

route = { pattern = "dashboard.ruxiom.dev/api/*", zone_name = "ruxiom.dev" }

the wierd thing is that a normal request (from bruno, local, or the browser itself) succeedes. only the sort of "subrequest" to an worker route from a cloudflare page is not working as expected (or by design)

i dont know if this even is allowed / recommended but I have the following Idea in mind and wanted t
