Create a code bundle

Refer to these guidelines to create an EdgeWorkers code bundle.

EdgeWorkers functions are defined in a file entitled main.js. You also need to create a manifest file called bundle.json. These are packaged together, along with any other dependencies as a compressed .tgz file.

Create code bundle

For example, a package called mybundle.tgz includes two files:

main.js. The JavaScript source that contains event handler functions.
bundle.json. The manifest file that includes necessary meta information.

📘
The EdgeWorkers code bundle cannot contain any executable files.

Name	Type	Required	Description
`edgeworker-version`	String	✓	Unique identifier for the version
`bundle-version`	Integer	✗	Bundle format version
`api-version`	String	✗	Version of JavaScript API that the functions are coded against
`description`	String	✗	Descriptive phrase for the code function
`misc`	Object	✗	Miscellaneous data you can include in the manifest to identify the function

Follow these steps to create the bundle.

👍
You can also use the code bundle editor to create an EdgeWorker version.

Create the JavaScript source in a file called main.js.
Each time you create a new version of the code bundle you need to increment the edgeworker-version in the bundle.json file.

{
    "edgeworker-version": "1.2",
    "description" : "Perform redirect"
}

Compress the files into a code bundle.

tar -czvf filename.tgz main.js bundle.json

Once you have created the code bundle, you can use the EdgeWorkers Management application to create an EdgeWorker version.
