miniflare VS krustlet

Recently Cloudflare introduces Miniflare. As its name suggests, Miniflare is a feature-rich but miniature version of Cloudflare worker. Miniflare is a simulator that provides an environment for developing and testing Cloudflare worker scripts locally. Miniflare is written in typescript and supports most of the Cloudflare worker features like the KV database, durable objects, WebSockets, etc.

Another implementation of the above is Cloudfare workers you might be capable of grasp some ideas from here https://miniflare.dev

Is there an ETA on Miniflare v3? Ran into a problem recently using overlapping keys with forward slashes as they were not sanitized properly: https://github.com/cloudflare/miniflare/issues/167

The KV API is only available on Cloudflare Workers. But, during development, Rakkas runs our app on Node.js. Fortunately, the Miniflare project has a KV implementation for Node. The other two packages that we've installed (@miniflare/kv and @miniflare/storage-memory) are what we need to be able to use the KV API during development. Let's create a src/kv-mock.ts file and create a local KV store to store our ublog posts ("twits") while testing:

I used hono (a wrapper around miniflare) to handle some of the boilerplate around request and routing logic. It's also refreshingly fast! 🔥

The simple explanation is that I'm proposing use of the Service Worker API. Cloudflare offers a flat, free, 100k requests a day if you can keep it cutting edge, has local development and testing options with miniflare and a key/value (KV) store.

When we run the dev script, this will ensure that the local runtime environment Miniflare will bind a KV with the name sessionStorage to our Pages function.

Slshx is a library for building strongly-typed Discord commands (https://discord.com/developers/docs/interactions/application...) that run on Cloudflare Workers (https://workers.cloudflare.com/), using a React-inspired syntax (hooks and JSX). It supports all Discord command types/options, autocomplete and interactive message components. During development, it automatically deploys your commands whenever you change your code.

I created this because I think Cloudflare Workers are a great fit for hosting Discord commands, but there wasn't an easy way to get started that had a fun development experience. I also wanted to see what a Miniflare-first (https://github.com/cloudflare/miniflare) library could look like.

Oh it’s certainly looking like that IMO.

You can run wasm in k8s: https://krustlet.dev/

Docker itself can run wasm: https://wasmlabs.dev/articles/docker-without-containers/

There are a few serverless runtimes based on wasm: https://wasmcloud.com/

A lot of those are powered by wasmtime or WasmEdge.

If you’re wanting to be able to just pull down a random app and run it as wasm, that’s inherently harder with wasm, because you have to recompile, and amazing compiling stuff is always harder than it should be. For example I compiled jq to wasm to other day, so you dont have to worry (as much) about the CVEs that was issued recently. https://github.com/rockwotj/jq-wasi

It can, kubevirt is a project for running VMs https://kubevirt.io/ and there have been more esoteric things like WASM (https://github.com/krustlet/krustlet).

Or you can run Krustlet instead of Kubelet. That makes it so you can only run WebAssembly on the cluster - so no Go, no Python, only Rust!

But the project seems to have died: https://github.com/krustlet/krustlet/graphs/contributors

There are some cloud providers that are starting to offer wasm support. Docker is currently working on wasm https://docs.docker.com/desktop/wasm/ There is also krustlet https://krustlet.dev/ which lets you run wasm in kubernetes

> If one writes Go or Rust, there are much better ways to run them than targeting WASM

wasm has its place, especially for contained workloads that can be wrapped in its strict capability boundaries (think, file-encoding jobs that shouldn't access anything else but said files: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29112713).

> Containers are still the defacto standard.
