I'd like to upgrade my app to use endpoints. I have this in my config:
adapter: cloudflare({
imageService: "cloudflare",
platformProxy: {
enabled: true,
},
}),
output: "server",
What is the correct way to access KV values? I have a wrangler.toml file
[[kv_namespaces]]
binding = "STRING"
id = "STRING"
and then this in a page. but the value is only NULL. why?
const { env } = Astro.locals.runtime;
const myKV = env.jdlmsDotDev;
console.log("Accessing KV:", myKV);

Hi @ember steeple. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
To access the Cloudflare KV values in Astro, you need to use the Cloudflare runtime bindings. The bindings are found in the wrangler and .dev.vars configuration files.
In your case, you are trying to access the KV values using Astro.locals.runtime, which is correct. However, you need to ensure that the KV namespace binding is correctly defined in your wrangler.toml file.
Here is an example of how to define a KV namespace in wrangler.toml:
[[kv_namespaces]]
binding = "MY_VARIABLE"
id = "test"
Then, you can access the value of the MY_VARIABLE binding in your Astro code like this:
const { env } = Astro.locals.runtime;
const myVariable = env.MY_VARIABLE;
If you are still getting NULL, it might be because the KV value you are trying to access does not exist or the binding is not correctly defined.
Also, note that every time you change your configuration files (e.g. wrangler.toml, .dev.vars) you need to run wrangler types to generate TypeScript types for the bindings.

so i should be able to see value even when running the app locally?
@tiny sonnet so i should be able to see value even when running the app locally?

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
Yes, you should be able to see the value even when running the app locally. However, this requires the platformProxy option in your Astro configuration to be enabled. This option allows the emulation of the Cloudflare runtime in the Node.js dev process, including access to local workerd bindings and Cloudflare specific values.
Here is how you can enable it in your Astro configuration:
adapter: cloudflare({
imageService: "cloudflare",
platformProxy: {
enabled: true,
},
}),
output: "server",
This configuration will allow you to access your Cloudflare bindings locally. However, please note that the proxies provided by this are a best effort emulation of the real production. Although they are designed to be as close as possible to the real thing, there might be slight differences and inconsistencies between the two.
ember steeple
ok but the context for all of this is that i'm only rrunning npm run dev, no wrangler at the same time, right? @tiny sonnet

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
Yes, that's correct. When you run npm run dev, it starts Astro's development server which, with the correct configuration, emulates the Cloudflare runtime including the KV bindings. This is due to the platformProxy option in your Astro configuration being enabled.
However, if you want to use wrangler to run your application locally and have access to Cloudflare bindings, environment variables, and the cf object, you can update the preview script in your package.json:
"preview": "wrangler pages dev ./dist"
Then, you can run npm run preview to start your application with wrangler. Please note that getting hot reloading of the Astro dev server to work with Wrangler might require a custom setup.

ok running wrangler gives me access to the kv but then it is gone look here @tiny sonnet
Your worker has access to the following bindings:

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:
It seems like you're able to access the KV namespace, but the value you're trying to retrieve is null. This could be due to a few reasons:
Here's how you can access a KV value:
const { env } = Astro.locals.runtime;
const myKV = env.myNameSpace;
let value;
try {
value = await myKV.get("totalWaves", "text"); // specify the type of the value
console.log("KV Value:", value);
} catch (err) {
console.error("KV Fetch Error:", err);
}
In the get method, you can specify the type of the value you're trying to retrieve. If you don't specify a type, it defaults to retrieving as an arrayBuffer.
If the key "totalWaves" does exist and you're still getting null, it might be worth checking if there's an issue with your local setup or if there's a delay in propagating the KV values.

@tiny sonnet i have an error here: const { env } = Astro.locals.runtime; "run time does not exist"
here is my env.d.ts
/// <reference types="astro/client" />
type KVNamespace =
import("@cloudflare/workers-types").KVNamespace;
type ENV = {
jdlmsDotDev: KVNamespace;
};
// Depending on your adapter mode
// use AdvancedRuntime<ENV> for advance runtime mode
// use DirectoryRuntime<ENV> for directory runtime mode
type Runtime =
import("@astrojs/cloudflare").AdvancedRuntime<ENV>;
declare namespace App {
interface Locals extends Runtime { }
}

The error message "runtime does not exist" suggests that the runtime object is not being recognized in the context of Astro.locals. This could be due to a few reasons:
runtime object is not correctly defined in your env.d.ts file.runtime object is not correctly initialized in your Astro configuration.Firstly, ensure that your env.d.ts file is correctly defining the runtime object. Here's an example of how to do it:
/// <reference path="../.astro/types.d.ts" />
type Runtime = import('@astrojs/cloudflare').Runtime<Env>;
declare namespace App {
interface Locals extends Runtime {
otherLocals: {
test: string;
};
}
}
In this example, the runtime object is being typed using Runtime from @astrojs/cloudflare.
Secondly, ensure that your Astro configuration is correctly initializing the runtime object. Here's an example of how to do it:
import {defineConfig} from "astro/config";
import cloudflare from '@astrojs/cloudflare';
export default defineConfig({
adapter: cloudflare({}),
output: 'server',
vite: {
ssr: {
external: ['node:buffer'],
},
},
})
In this example, the adapter is being set to cloudflare which initializes the runtime object.
If you've checked these and you're still getting the error, it might be worth checking if there's an issue with your local setup or if there's a delay in propagating the KV values.

@tiny sonnet does this look correct?
/// <reference types="astro/client" />
type KVNamespace =
import("@cloudflare/workers-types").KVNamespace;
type ENV = {
jdlmsDotDev: KVNamespace;
};
// Depending on your adapter mode
// use AdvancedRuntime<ENV> for advance runtime mode
// use DirectoryRuntime<ENV> for directory runtime mode
type Runtime =
import("@astrojs/cloudflare").AdvancedRuntime<ENV>;
/// <reference path="../.astro/types.d.ts" />
type Runtime = import('@astrojs/cloudflare').Runtime<Env>;
declare namespace App {
interface Locals extends Runtime {
otherLocals: {
test: string;
};
}
}

Your env.d.ts file seems to have some redundancy and might be causing confusion. You have defined Runtime twice, which is not necessary. Here's how you can clean it up:
/// <reference types="astro/client" />
import { KVNamespace } from "@cloudflare/workers-types";
import { AdvancedRuntime } from "@astrojs/cloudflare";
type ENV = {
jdlmsDotDev: KVNamespace;
};
type Runtime = AdvancedRuntime<ENV>;
declare namespace App {
interface Locals extends Runtime {
otherLocals: {
test: string;
};
}
}
In this file:
KVNamespace is imported from @cloudflare/workers-types.AdvancedRuntime is imported from @astrojs/cloudflare.ENV is defined with jdlmsDotDev as a KVNamespace.Runtime is defined as AdvancedRuntime<ENV>.Locals is extended from Runtime inside the App namespace.This should correctly define your environment variables and runtime for Astro with Cloudflare.
