Not using a token, just connected the GitHub repo directly in the worker, I'm missing something ?

scottoOP•8/7/25, 12:33 PM

Works for any worker without container but with container we had that 403, I don't see any option to set permitimos there

McKamyk•8/7/25, 9:57 PM

when running

wrangler dev

wrangler dev

on a container DO, is the container not given a tty instance?

McKamyk•8/7/25, 10:01 PM

I'm trying to run electric-sql locally with wrangler-dev and it errors out with something that seems to resemble not having a TTY, though admittedly I'm not very erlang/elixir knowledgable. The container runs just fine when I

docker build

docker build

and docker rundocker run it, but fails to start in

wrangler dev

wrangler dev

. It seems to work fine when deployed

Hey guys has any tried to deploy a flask server to cf containers?

gnarley_farley.•8/8/25, 2:25 AM

Why do i always have 1 active instance?

gnarley_farley.•8/8/25, 2:25 AM

Can i scale down to 0

When you connect to a Git repo, it'll create an API token for you as part of that process

scottoOP•8/8/25, 11:31 PM

Then that's not working right, I connect the repo and got that error only for containers, the worker it selft deploys normally

kian•8/8/25, 11:32 PM

Have you checked the token has the Containers permission?

scottoOP•8/8/25, 11:40 PM

How can I check that if it's automated as far as I know

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 2:23 AM

Egress on containers is so expensive. All the best use cases I can think off like processing video are just totally out of reach. We did the maths on moving our ffmpeg processing to containers. Mind boggling numbers. What a pity, cloudflare has always been very generous with egress.

Hello

Can I run ffmpeg on containers?

SSamandar Turdiev Can I run ffmpeg on containers?

Isaac McFadyen•8/9/25, 5:04 AM

Yes, with some caveats that encoding video using h264/h265 can be somewhat slow even on the highest tier available currently.

Isaac McFadyen•8/9/25, 5:05 AM

But for transcoding or encoding lightweight formats like audio it runs well.

I just want to encode aac audio to mp3, average file size 50Mb

Samandar Turdiev•8/9/25, 5:16 AM

What do you think, free tier is ok for my case?

SSamandar Turdiev I just want to encode aac audio to mp3, average file size 50Mb

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 5:26 AM

you can run ffmpeg there is one tutorial on youtube. I even got yt-dlp to run on it yesterday. Bit slow though. Cold start times are gnarley. Egress is expensive.

But if you just using it for your personal stuff it will be good. Try it out.

You get 500gb-1tb free depending on your region... Or something liek that according to the docs.

Thats still a decent included tier. I process a couple hundred 3+ hour videos a month and could get through all of my monthly usage within the provided tier

Samandar Turdiev•8/9/25, 7:35 AM

Is Worker ineffiecnt for such cpu-intesive tasks?

1984 Ford Laser•8/9/25, 7:37 AM

correct

Samandar Turdiev•8/9/25, 7:40 AM

What can you recommend instead? I'm doing a massive conversion of audio files on-the-fly, per request, I need to offlod encoding process

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 7:40 AM

For Personal usage. For any app or service it's too expensive. Workers don't support the packages and also stuff like unsafe eval so not an option. Cool thing about containers is they support everything.

1984 Ford Laser•8/9/25, 7:40 AM

An app or service should be adequately monetised to cover such costs

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 7:46 AM

Too expensive. Egress fee's for things like uploading to r2 make i very pricey. For personal usage sure. Very nice

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 7:47 AM

Let's see how widely adopted this becomes in the next few months to a year.

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 7:49 AM

If it's for users try offload to their personal computers with something like a companion app. If you have to do it remotely checkout the price of vm's. You can get them for betwen 100x to 1000x cheaper than containers depending on your workloads.

Samandar Turdiev•8/9/25, 7:51 AM

Companion app?

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 7:52 AM

Things like ffmpeg or yt-dlp can be run off a users computer. You can make users install a binary or application on their personal computers that can interface with your service in some way. So they can make use of your software but using their personal resources

Samandar Turdiev•8/9/25, 7:52 AM

I'll try to check vm options

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 7:53 AM

Check racknerd and try find their specials or some other service. Yearly costs are pretty low. You can upload to s3 or r2 and then make downloadable links from there.

Whats latency like if they don't have a nearby DC?

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 8:12 AM

Better than 13 second cold starts on containers. Forsure.

1984 Ford Laser•8/9/25, 8:13 AM

What does it cost to get more bandwidth?

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 8:13 AM

A lot

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 8:14 AM

Depends though on your use case. If you processing video for users

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 8:14 AM

This is way too expensive

1984 Ford Laser•8/9/25, 8:14 AM

no with racknerd I know how to read CF docs

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 8:14 AM

They have a lot of unlimited plans

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 8:15 AM

For like 200$+ a year for a pretty sick vm and unlimited download and upload

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 8:17 AM

Example 7tb per month for 28$ per year.

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 8:18 AM

1 tb for cf containers cost more than this yearly cost.

1984 Ford Laser•8/9/25, 8:18 AM

CF Containers isnt intended to be a 24/7/365 product

gnarley_farley.•8/9/25, 8:19 AM

where you get 84 terrabytes of egress.. yeah we not looking for 24/7 products.

1984 Ford Laser•8/9/25, 8:19 AM

the egress is also cheaper than what aws charges for ec2 at least in my region
