API proxing using Cloudflare Workers

This project uses Clouflare Workers serverless functions resources to build an API Proxy aiming protect API keys. This project is inspired by Transversy Media video, where he creates an API Proxy server, but using express server. The original code base is available here.

Dependencies

This project was build and configured using Wrangler CLI. Please, ensure you have wrangler configured properly in your machine if you want to test and publish.

Configuring

Create a copy of wrangler.toml.example, renaming it to wrangler.toml.

In wrangler.toml, you can change your worker name by setting up variable name.

Set up your API-related environment variables attributing values to API_BASE_URL, API_KEY_NAME, and API_KEY_VALUE. If you are using this code to exercise or learning, follow original Transversy Media Open Weather Map API configuration.

Create a KV namespace on Cloudflare Workers settings, following official docs. Set up id variable on wrangler.toml with created KV namespace id. If you want to use another bind than KV_CACHE, does not forget to update it also on the source code.

Now you are ready to both modify the code and/or publish it on your Cloudflare workers space.
