deno-http-worker

Similarly to deno-vm, deno-http-worker lets you securely spawn Deno http servers.

Usage

import { newDenoHTTPWorker } from 'deno-http-worker';

let worker = await newDenoHTTPWorker(
    `export default {
        async fetch(req: Request): Promise<Response> {
            return Response.json({ ok: req.url });
        },
    }`,
    { printOutput: true, runFlags: ["--allow-net"] }
);

const req = await worker.request({
    url: "https://hello/world?query=param",
    method: "GET"
})
const body = await req.body.json()

console.log(body) // => {"ok":"https://hello/world?query=param"}

worker.terminate();

Internals

Deno-http-worker connects to the Deno process over a Unix socket via undici to make requests. As a result, the worker does not provide an address or url, but instead returns undici.ResponseData that uses undici.Pool.request under the hood, but modifies the request attributes to work over the socket, and we expose parts of request and response interface.

If you need more advanced usage here, or run into bugs, please open an issue.
