rusty_v8 VS oak

I'm building Lagon, an open-source [1] runtime and platform that allows developers to run TypeScript and JavaScript serverless functions at the Edge, close to users. The runtime uses V8 Isolates and is written from scratch using Rust and rusty_v8 [2], Deno's Rust bindings for V8.

Not to denigrate your work, it's good what you're working on... but I can create JS APIs in Rust with native V8 bindings, too: https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8/blob/main/examples/proc...

For more futuristic stuff, check out Typescript native Deno and rustbased v8

No, that will be rusty_v8

Can Deno be embedded in a larger Rust application? I know I can embed v8 directly https://github.com/denoland/rusty_v8 but I wish I could use other parts of Deno.

In particular, I wish I could write a Tokio async program in Rust, and load plugins using deno, and have this work seamlessly

Are you using Oak? If not you should check it out https://oakserver.github.io/oak/

oak - web framework

Hey @cjonas, I'm a developer on Supabase Edge Functions team. We do have plans to improve the current database trigger behavior. Will share more updates on this in the coming months.

Can you explain what do you mean by template URLs? Do you mean route params like `/v1/functions/users/:id`? If so, you can use a framework like Oak[1] to handle them. Edge Functions will make the full path including querystring available to the router.

Source maps, is it broken during local dev or when you deploy the function? Also, by broken you mean in a stack trace the file / line numbers aren't accurate?

Oak framework [Website]

If you don’t want to use a full stack framework, you can develop your frontend and backend separately. With Cloudflare, you can serve your frontend and static assets with Pages or Workers Sites. With Deno Deploy, you can serve static assets from the filesystem. As for the backend, you probably want to use an HTTP framework such as Sunder (if you target Cloudflare Workers), oak, Router, or Sift (if you target Deno Deploy).

Oak server - middleware framework for Deno's native HTTP server. 'destjs' use it under the hood.

The issue about resources vanishing does happen, e.g. this example, meaning things like CI outages / non-deterministic builds / etc are possible, especially under a decentralized package hosting model.

Here's an example that uses Oak, a web application framework for Deno, to create a basic web server:
