See https://developers.cloudflare.com/kv/reference/kv-bindings/ for examples of how you'd normally do this in Workers

Have you run through the code and getting started guide at https://developers.cloudflare.com/kv/get-started/ ? - your code here is very different

Im so confused

J

JamesOP•4/6/24, 4:05 PM

We're happy to help if you can expand on where you're confused

A good place to start would probably be where you got that original code from? Was it some framework?

V

Voids•4/6/24, 4:06 PM

my orginial code was given to me to test with fetching

J

JamesOP•4/6/24, 4:06 PM

Given to you by where/what exactly?

V

Voids•4/6/24, 4:06 PM

someone else who was helping me but they went to sleep

J

JamesOP•4/6/24, 4:07 PM

I see. I would recommend starting at https://developers.cloudflare.com/kv/get-started/ and letting us know if you get stuck anywhere

W

Walshy•4/6/24, 4:07 PM

yeah that code has never existed or worked on the Workers platform

W

Walshy•4/6/24, 4:07 PM

You'll want to follow what James has linked and any questions we can help out

V

Voids•4/6/24, 4:09 PM

do I have to bind the kv if Im not using wrangler?

J

JamesOP•4/6/24, 4:10 PM

I would recommend wrangler, but if you're using quick edit, you can bind it in the settings UI for the worker instead: Settings -> Variables -> KV Namespace Bindings

R

rob•4/6/24, 4:11 PM

Are you trying to use KV from another platform? So not using workers at all?

R

rob•4/6/24, 4:11 PM

Like store Kv data via an api ?

V

Voids•4/6/24, 4:11 PM

I want to send requests from my website

V

Voids•4/6/24, 4:11 PM

so when someone submits it send the data to the kv and then requests the kv's data to display it

Hello, I’m Allie!•4/6/24, 4:17 PM

You can do it via the Cloudflare API too, but you wouldn't want to do that from the frontend, so yeah, the Worker is probably the best idea.

V

Voids•4/6/24, 4:17 PM

so then how do I have my site communicate to the work

A

abel•4/6/24, 4:17 PM

if you use cloudflare pages, i think you can have a binding to a kv

VVoids so then how do I have my site communicate to the work

A

abel•4/6/24, 4:17 PM

using javascript

V

Voids•4/6/24, 4:17 PM

post and fetch requests?

A

abel•4/6/24, 4:17 PM

yes

Aabel if you use cloudflare pages, i think you can have a binding to a kv

R

rob•4/6/24, 4:20 PM

yes you can with cf pages

R

rob•4/6/24, 4:20 PM

Bind it in the dash and you can access it on server routes which are workers anyway afaik

VVoids post and fetch requests?

R

rob•4/6/24, 4:21 PM

yes fetch the worker and get back the response, Your site > Worker > KV .. KV comes back thru worker to your site via a fetch

yes

A

abel•4/6/24, 4:32 PM

in the worker you would have a router

A

abel•4/6/24, 4:32 PM

using something like hono

A

abel•4/6/24, 4:33 PM

you create an endpoint that responds with the key or performs a write

A

abel•4/6/24, 4:33 PM

and then call that endpoint

V

Voids•4/6/24, 4:35 PM

you lost me after hav a.....

A

abel•4/6/24, 4:37 PM

a router is basically a big if statement that says, if the request url is a do this action and provide this response, if it’s b do this other action and provide this other response

A

abel•4/6/24, 4:37 PM

look up the documentation for hono

A

abel•4/6/24, 4:37 PM

you would need a get endpoint for your read, and a post endpoint for your write

R

rob•4/6/24, 4:39 PM

for the sake of simplicity you don't need hono for routes, workers can do routing natively

V

Voids•4/6/24, 4:43 PM

so then how would I get a worker to do this, IM so confused

V

Voids•4/6/24, 4:45 PM

I cant get the worker to communicate with the kv

Hey! Sorry if this is the wrong place. I am trying to bind a KV for a specific environment and now the KV doesn't bind correctly in the code. This is what I see in the terminal on startup:

Vars:
...
  - kv-namespaces: [
 {
  "binding": "XYZ",
  "id": "ASDF"
 }
]

Vars:
...
  - kv-namespaces: [
 {
  "binding": "XYZ",
  "id": "ASDF"
 }
]

Vars:
...
  - kv-namespaces: [
 {
  "binding": "XYZ",
  "id": "ASDF"
 }
]

Vars:
...
  - kv-namespaces: [
 {
  "binding": "XYZ",
  "id": "ASDF"
 }
]

Before this, I was binding at the top level and this worked as expected where I could access the KV by just doing

env.XYZ

env.XYZ

env.XYZ

env.XYZ in code but now it is an array which can't be interacted with. Any help is appreciated! Happy to paste some of the toml and what not if that would be helpful!

kian•4/7/24, 9:01 PM

You've got

kv_namespaces = [

kv_namespaces = [

kv_namespaces = [

kv_namespaces = [ below

[vars]

[vars]

[vars]

[vars]

kian•4/7/24, 9:01 PM

Move it above
