Turbo R2 Archive

Overview

This is a Worker that will act as an event server for caching TurboRepo artifacts. Compliant with the TurboRepo API, for remote caching, it will store the cache artifacts in a Cloudflare R2 bucket and purge the R2 Objects on a schedule, using R2 Object lifecycle rules. This allows for all the benefits of remote caching TurboRepo artifacts on Cloudflare's edge network.

This will require a Cloudflare account, with a zone and R2.

Environment Variables

Utilizing .env file to store the variables for Turborepo API & Worker. The .env file should be in the root of the project directory. The .env file should contain the following variables. Be sure to add the .env file to .gitignore to prevent it from being committed to the repository.

The commands are ran with dotenv cli npx dotenv -- npx turbo <command> to inject the environment variables into the command process environment.

bash

TURBO_API=<baseURL> # https://something.com
TURBO_TEAM=<value> # team_whatever it has to start with prefix team_
TURBO_TOKEN=<value> # whatever is set in the worker secret
TURBO_REMOTE_CACHE_SIGNATURE_KEY=<value> # needs to be the same for every one using the same cache

Turbo Project Config

To utilize the TURBO_REMOTE_CACHE_SIGNATURE_KEY which will increase the security of the remote cache, the project config will need to be updated to include the following:

json

{
	"remoteCache": { "signature": true }
}

Worker Configuration

jsonc

{
	"r2_buckets": [
		{
			"binding": "R2_ARTIFACT_ARCHIVE", // The binding name for the bucket, used in the Worker i.e. env.R2_ARTIFACT_ARCHIVE.get(<key>)
			"bucket_name": "turbo-cache", // bucket name when looking for objects in dashboard
			"preview_bucket_name": "turbo-cache-preview",
		},
	],
}

The endpoints are protected by a bearer token. The token is stored as a secret in the Worker. The token can be set with the following command:

bash

echo <VALUE> | wrangler secret put TURBO_TOKEN

Manual Cache Purge

The cache can also be purged manually by sending a POST request to the <baseURL>/artifacts/manual-cache-bust endpoint. This can be done with the following command:

bash

https -A bearer -a <TURBO_TOKEN> POST <baseURL>/artifacts/manual-cache-bust

How can I develop & test locally?

This project is primarily self-service and is meant to be forked and modified to fit your needs. The following instructions will help you get started.

Running the Worker Locally

The Worker can be run, locally with the package.json script start:

bash

npm run start

TurboRepo Testing Local Server

Well since we are already using Cloudflare, let's keep that going. cloudflared allows for creating a tunnel to your http://127.0.0.1:8787 and exposing it to the internet. This will allow others direct their TurboRepo to the local dev server by settingTURBO_API to <host>. The command to create a tunnel looks like:

bash

cloudflared tunnel --hostname <host> --url http://127.0.0.1:8787/ --name r2-archive (or whatever you want to name it)

How can I deploy this?

Fork this repo, have a Cloudflare account, and run the following command:

bash

npm run deploy

You now have a TurboRepo API compliant event server that will cache artifacts on Cloudflare's edge network.
