now-static-bin
This package provides a builder for Zeit's Now 2.0 offering that enables running arbitrary executables in the generated lambdas.
Usage
Your now.json
"builds"
section should look something like this:
Example
Note: don't forget to add "version": 2
in your now.json
file to use Now
2.0 explicitly.
{
"builds": [
{
"src": "*.exe",
"use": "now-static-bin",
"config": {
"port": 4000
}
}
]
}
Other Examples
Make sure to check the examples
folder in this repo for examples
in different programming languages. Below is a table that details their
implementation choices.
They are also deployed on every commit to master and the latest build lives in
now-static-bin-examples.now.sh
.
Example | Demo | Description |
---|---|---|
OCaml | https://now-static-bin-examples.now.sh/examples/bintry/main.exe | An OCaml static binary example server (no source available yet) |
Rust | https://now-static-bin-examples.now.sh/examples/rust/server.exe | A Rust simple-server example |
Reason | https://now-static-bin-examples.now.sh/examples/reason/main.exe | A Reason Cohttp server example that outputs request information |
Configuration Options
port
: the port that the deployed server listens on. Defaults to 8080.timeout
: the timeout that the launcher waits for your server to start listening on the specified port. Defaults to 50ms.
Limitations
- Currently only HTTP servers are supported.
- The
maxLambdaSize
setting defaults to 25MB. You can override this (up to a limit of 50MB) in the builder config, e.g.:
{
"builds": [
{
"src": "*.exe",
"use": "now-static-bin",
"config": {
"port": 4000,
"maxLambdaSize": "50mb"
