@astrojs/deno 🦖

This adapter allows Astro to deploy your SSR site to Deno targets.

Learn how to deploy your Astro site in our Deno Deploy deployment guide.

Why Astro Deno

If you're using Astro as a static site builder—its behavior out of the box—you don't need an adapter.

If you wish to use server-side rendering (SSR), Astro requires an adapter that matches your deployment runtime.

Deno is a runtime similar to Node, but with an API that's more similar to the browser's API. This adapter provides access to Deno's API and creates a script to run your project on a Deno server.

Installation

Add the Deno adapter to enable SSR in your Astro project with the following astro add command. This will install the adapter and make the appropriate changes to your astro.config.mjs file in one step.

npx astro add deno

If you prefer to install the adapter manually instead, complete the following two steps:

  1. Install the Deno adapter to your project’s dependencies using your preferred package manager. If you’re using npm or aren’t sure, run this in the terminal:

      npm install @astrojs/deno
  2. Update your astro.config.mjs project configuration file with the changes below.

    // astro.config.mjs
    import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
    import deno from '@astrojs/deno';
    
    export default defineConfig({
      output: 'server',
      adapter: deno(),
    });

Next, Update your preview script in package.json with the change below.

```json del={8} ins={9}
// package.json
{
  // ...
  "scripts": {
    "dev": "astro dev",
    "start": "astro dev",
    "build": "astro build",
    "preview": "astro preview"
    "preview": "deno run --allow-net --allow-read --allow-env ./dist/server/entry.mjs"
  }
}
```

You can now use this command to preview your production Astro site locally with Deno.

```bash
npm run preview
```

Usage

After performing a build there will be a dist/server/entry.mjs module. You can start a server by importing this module in your Deno app:

import './dist/entry.mjs';

See the start option below for how you can have more control over starting the Astro server.

You can also run the script directly using deno:

deno run --allow-net --allow-read --allow-env ./dist/server/entry.mjs

Configuration

To configure this adapter, pass an object to the deno() function call in astro.config.mjs.

astro.config.mjs

import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
import deno from '@astrojs/deno';

export default defineConfig({
  output: 'server',
  adapter: deno({
    //options go here
  })
});

start

This adapter automatically starts a server when it is imported. You can turn this off with the start option:

import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
import deno from '@astrojs/deno';

export default defineConfig({
  output: 'server',
  adapter: deno({
    start: false
  })
});

If you disable this, you need to write your own Deno web server. Import and call handle from the generated entry script to render requests:

import { serve } from "https://deno.land/[email protected]/http/server.ts";
import { handle } from './dist/entry.mjs';

serve((req: Request) => {
  // Check the request, maybe do static file handling here.

  return handle(req);
});

port and hostname

You can set the port (default: 8085) and hostname (default: 0.0.0.0) for the deno server to use. If start is false, this has no effect; your own server must configure the port and hostname.

import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
import deno from '@astrojs/deno';

export default defineConfig({
  output: 'server',
  adapter: deno({
    port: 8081,
    hostname: 'myhost'
  })
});

Examples

The Astro Deno example includes a preview:deno command that runs the entry script directly. Run npm run build then npm run preview:deno to run the production deno server.
