This repo contains the "closed-source" bootstrap code used to initialize the environment of Netlify Edge Functions as well as the bundler code used for deploying them to Deno Deploy.
While the Edge Functions API is decently documented, I was still curious how Netlify actually integrates Deno as a JavaScript/TypeScript runtime behind the scenes. To that end, I extracted the code and created a playground that can run functions locally (similar to netlify dev).
I gathered all information contained here by reading the source code of Netlify's CLI & Edge Bundler and tinkering with deno vendor.
(Make sure to install Deno version 1.22 or higher first.)
Download current bootstrap code to src folder:
make bootstrapStart playground webserver:
make playgroundSend requests to playground:
❯ curl -H 'x-nf-edge-functions: hello' -H 'x-nf-request-id: 1234' http://localhost:8000
Hello world
❯ curl -H 'x-nf-edge-functions: up,hello' -H 'x-nf-request-id: 1234' http://localhost:8000
HELLO WORLD
❯ curl -H 'x-nf-edge-functions: up,skip,hello' -H 'x-nf-request-id: 1234' http://localhost:8000
HELLO WORLDx-nf-edge-functions must contain a list of functions to be run in the given order. Function handlers are defined here.
Bundle functions like Netlify does before deploying to Deno Deploy:
make bundle
