Development 🔨

Prerequisites:

• Install Wrangler
• Run wrangler login - (needed for k/v store and secrets)

You may want to create a .dev.vars file in the main project folder with the following values:

• CACHE_BASIC_AUTH (used for caching)

Start the API server:

• Start the dev environment by running npm run dev
• Then open up the playground on localhost:8787/___graphql

Deployment 🚀

If you wish to deploy locally and have permissions to do so, run the following command:

wrangler publish

We don't do this often and generally use GitHub actions to do all of our deployments for us

HTTP Server

There's also an http webserver in the /http folder. It can be run with npm run dev or npm start. To run locally, you need to set the following vars (for local testing, you can use an .env file in the /http folder):

• CLOUDFLARE_TOKEN (token must have permissions to read the KVs the API uses)
• CACHE_BASIC_AUTH (used for caching)
• ENVIRONMENT (either production or dev; determines which KVs are read)
• PORT (defaults to 8088)
• WORKERS (defaults to # of cpus - 1; determines how many worker threads are created to respond to requests)
