I have a website whose content partially depends on another website. Currently I have a Github workflow which invokes a deploy hook every day but this is not a permanent solution since it runs too often and can have up to 24 hours of content lag time. Is there a way to invoke a deploy hook for a different Pages instance a few minutes after a build finishes?

Would a Cron Worker do the trick? You could run it every hour for pretty much no real cost.

AmazinAxelOP•4/3/25, 6:58 PM

the GH workflow can also run hourly but i was hoping for a solution that would ping the deploy hook only when it's necessary as to provide less delay

AmazinAxelOP•4/3/25, 7:02 PM

~~i should also mention that fetching the deploy webhook inside of the build does not work~~ got it working, had to specify method: POST in the fetch options

@Hard@Work | R2 maybe you can help me again regarding automated builds with workers?

We are currently discussing the possibility of using GitHub Enterprise Cloud with data residency, which would create a ghe.com subdomain. However, the APIs will remain the same.

Is it still possible to connect a GitHub account that exists under ghe.com and not on GitHub.com with automated builds?

Hello, does anyone know if there is an aggregate size limit for Workers Secrets? The documentation says a number limit of 64/128, and a size limit for each of 5KB. But after adding a few larger ones my project build doesn't even initialize - ends with : An internal error occurred. Please retry your build. If this problem persists, contact Cloudflare support.

When I remove some secrets, the build will start again (but ultimately fail because my needed secret isn't there).

Has anyone experienced this?

Eric•4/4/25, 5:42 AM

While I love building on workers, there are two major annoyances that seem easy to solve and I’ve heard from people over and over again so I thought I would share:

worker placement is annoying. There should be a “dumb” placement option which allows me to pin workers to a specific datacenter or at least small ish region. If I know where my database is running that is where my worker should run. Smart placement ends up being too smart for its own good. I want control over placement, give me control. I get the idea behind it, “it’s not ideal as soon as you start having read replicas around the world yada, yada, yada.” Most people don’t. Give me control.
While workers are nearly unbounded in terms of processing time, waitUntil is not. This blocks sooo many small background tasks. I know you can get around that with workflows and crons and queues and whatever, but all of that adds a tone of complexity because of what seems like such an arbitrary limitation.

Quick question
I noticed that when I re-deploy a Cloudflare Pages project with Wrangler, it lets me know how many new files it sent. Since "0 files uploaded" is a touch worrying: it'll also update existing files whose contents has changed, right? My testing implies so, but I want to double check

Correct! The file is content hashed and tracked by Cloudflare. If that hash changes, Wrangler will re-upload that file

Is there a way to force fetch to decompress a file that does not correctly have gzip set on it's Content-Encoding header?

I'm not sure you can force fetch to do it, but you could always pass it through a DecompressionStreamDecompressionStream yourself

Does storing things compressed (with gzip) vs uncompressed with the Cache API make any real difference?

Workers only charge based on requests and CPU time these days. The only exception to this is Durable Objects, which are still wall-time based.

So worker only charge by request and CPU time in metric now? The rest indicator for reference only ?

Correct, if you are not using Durable Objects then you will only be charged based on requests and CPU time, not wall time.

Hello!

I‘m looking for a way to process Videos using workers or workflows. In Detail my goal is to cut an image out of a video that’s stored in R2 every 1 second and persist it in R2 again. I thought maybe media transformations would work, but I don‘t Thank it fits my needs quite well because of caching and requiring an URL to work. Are there any other approches for that?
