Well my initial plan was to buy server space and my own hardware and run everything on nixos using microvm.nix and firecracker

elpupper•10/31/24, 6:36 PM

Since there isnt much reliable hosting here where i am

elpupper•10/31/24, 6:36 PM

But i saw cloudflare has servers here

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 6:39 PM

could try finding the Facility they're in and colocating there, possible it's listed on Cloudflare's peeringdb, I'm sure you could google for datacenters in your area as well to colocate in

elpupper•10/31/24, 6:42 PM

I will have a look but i will have a go at cloudflare firstly since its light on $$

I getting an error “invalid hostname” when trying to add a custom domain with a wildcard to my worker. This worked in the past. Anybody know what's up with that?

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 7:18 PM

Worker Custom Domains can't be wildcard, only routes

ziegfried•10/31/24, 7:18 PM

I am using custom wildcard domains with 2 workers right now

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 7:19 PM

Worker Routes can be wildcard

ziegfried•10/31/24, 7:20 PM

right, but without the domain, there's no DNS record actually pointing to the worker, or am I misunderstanding something?

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 7:20 PM

With Routes you just make originless records if you don't have an actual origin behind it, AAAA target 100::

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 7:20 PM

either wildcard or just for a specific hostname

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 7:21 PM

100:: is IPv6 discard, basically "handle inside of CF or drop and don't go anywhere)

ziegfried•10/31/24, 7:27 PM

like this?

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 7:28 PM

yup

ziegfried•10/31/24, 7:30 PM

thanks for your help! getting a certificate error right now, but I assume it may take a bit for those to be issued

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 7:30 PM

did you issue one w/ ACM or have Total TLS on?

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 7:30 PM

that's lower then the first layer, the universal cert won't cover you

ziegfried•10/31/24, 7:31 PM

I just enabled the total tls

ziegfried•10/31/24, 7:34 PM

and it's working now, thanks a ton!

elpupper•10/31/24, 8:32 PM

But cant the client route to the wildcard

Eelpupper But cant the client route to the wildcard

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 8:32 PM

The client, as in an external customer not using CF?

CChaika The client, as in an external customer not using CF?

elpupper•10/31/24, 8:38 PM

Yes

elpupper•10/31/24, 8:39 PM

So the wildcard acts as a proxy

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 8:39 PM

Then you have to use CF For SaaS, which doesn't support wildcards full stop for non-enterprise

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 8:39 PM

Can only use Worker Routes and such when the domain/zone is in your account

ChaikaOP•10/31/24, 8:40 PM

You can't just CNAME to a worker either if that's what you're thinking

Mozzy•10/31/24, 9:29 PM

Is there a good/native way of avoiding this behaviour in order to get a cache miss?

Mozzy•10/31/24, 9:31 PM

Currently, I'm just doing a simple cache with Hono middleware

export const cache = (name: string, minutes: number) =>
  honoCache({
    cacheName: name,
    cacheControl: `public, max-age=${minutes * 60}`,
  });

export const cache = (name: string, minutes: number) =>
  honoCache({
    cacheName: name,
    cacheControl: `public, max-age=${minutes * 60}`,
  });

Isaac McFadyen•10/31/24, 9:35 PM

In general this is a good way to cache-bust. It seems "hacky" but it's not really and is used quite frequently in a lot of sites actually.

Spunkie•10/31/24, 9:35 PM

So routes is not available on pages, only workers? Is that right or am I just blind?

Isaac McFadyen•10/31/24, 9:35 PM

That's correct. Pages is full-domain.

Mozzy•10/31/24, 9:37 PM

I know it's helpful, but I would like the option to have stricter cache rules

Mozzy•10/31/24, 9:37 PM

Maybe a rewrite middleware before the caching?

SSpunkie :weicry:

Isaac McFadyen•10/31/24, 9:37 PM

You could write a Pages Function to proxy some routes to another backend but that would increase latency and always bill you for Function invocations.

MMozzy Maybe a rewrite middleware before the caching?

Isaac McFadyen•10/31/24, 9:37 PM

Oh I might have misunderstood. You want to disable that so it still hits the cache?

Mozzy•10/31/24, 9:37 PM

Exactly

Isaac McFadyen•10/31/24, 9:37 PM

If so there's a setting you can change in the Cloudflare dashboard.

Isaac McFadyen•10/31/24, 9:37 PM

Sec.

Isaac McFadyen•10/31/24, 9:38 PM

https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/zone/caching/configuration

Isaac McFadyen•10/31/24, 9:38 PM

Try that

Isaac McFadyen•10/31/24, 9:38 PM

Then change Caching Level to "Ignore Query String"

Isaac McFadyen•10/31/24, 9:38 PM

Keep in mind that will ignore all query string not just the incremental cache bust there.

Spunkie•10/31/24, 9:39 PM

Ya I thought about that but it kind of defeats why I wanted to use pages. Which is mostly to make it easy to understand and update for non technical users.

Spunkie•10/31/24, 9:39 PM

But that is prob what I'll do :thisisfine:
