- use with web file server as handler for js/ts files
- web server i.e. caddy serves static files and directory indexes
- js/ts files sent to deno like how php is sent to php-fpm
- quick & easy server-side js
- still not sure what to call it
# deno-handler.ts
```ts
import { serve } from "https://deno.land/std@0.139.0/http/server.ts";
serve(async function handler(req: Request): Promise<Response> {
var url = new URL(req.url);
var webroot = req.headers.get("webroot");
var fullpath = webroot + url.pathname;
if (!webroot || fullpath.includes('../') || !/\.(js|ts)$/i.test(url.pathname)) return new Response("", {status: 400});
try {
var {handler} = await import(fullpath);
return await handler(req);
} catch (error) {
return new Response(error.message, {
status: error.code == "ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND" ? 404 : 500
});
}
}, {
port: 8000,
hostname: "localhost"
});
```
# example caddy config
```caddyfile
example.com {
root * /var/www/html/
try_files {path} {path}/index.js {path}/index.ts
@serverjs {
path *.js *.ts
not path /static/* #in case you want to serve client js
#or another idea is to match *.server.js/ts
}
reverse_proxy @serverjs localhost:8000 {
header_up webroot /var/www/html/ #need to tell deno server where files are
}
file_server browse
}
```
# example systemd service
```systemd

# example files
```js
export function handler(req) {
return new Response("foobar javascript");
}
```
```ts
export function handler(req: Request): Response {
return new Response("foobar typescript");
}
```
```ts
export async function handler(req: Request): Promise<Response> {
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 3000));
return new Response("foobar async typescript");
}
```
