darkflare

darkflare is a folder-based router - similar to Next.js - for Cloudflare Workers. It generates a neat JavaScript bundle from your TypeScript code which can then be deployed to Cloudflare Workers straight away.

Setup

  1. Install the CLI.

    Deno v1.30.0 or later should be installed.

    deno install -n darkflare -f -A https://deno.land/x/darkflare@v6.4.0/cli/mod.ts

  2. Add a import map.

    deno.json

    {
  "imports": {
    "darkflare": "https://deno.land/x/darkflare@v6.4.0/mod.ts",
    "darkflare/authenticator": "https://deno.land/x/darkflare@v6.4.0/authenticator/mod.ts",
    "darkflare/jwt": "https://deno.land/x/darkflare@v6.4.0/jwt/mod.ts",
    "darkflare/oauth2": "https://deno.land/x/darkflare@v6.4.0/oauth2/mod.ts",
    "darkflare/realm": "https://deno.land/x/darkflare@v6.4.0/realm/mod.ts",
    "darkflare/s3": "https://deno.land/x/darkflare@v6.4.0/s3/mod.ts",
    "darkflare/x": "https://deno.land/x/darkflare@v6.4.0/x/mod.ts"
  }
}
