Coding Assignment for Cloudflare Internship
A linktree style website using Cloudflare Workers
Create a new Workers project using Wrangler. This project will respond to two kinds of requests, one to generate a JSON API (defined below), and second, to serve an HTML page (see “Set up an HTML page”)
To begin, you should define an array of links. The links should be a JavaScript array, with a number of link objects, each with a name and URL string. See the below example for one of these link objects:
{ "name": "Link Name", "url": "https://linkurl" }
You should define at least three link objects inside of your array.
Once you’ve defined this array, set up a request handler to respond to the path /links, and return the array itself as the root of your JSON response.
In addition, you should ensure that the API response has the correct Content-Type header to indicate to clients that it is a JSON response.
You should be able to test that this works as expect by running wrangler dev to access your Workers application locally.
Visit localhost:8000/links to confirm that your application returns the link array as a JSON response.
With your API deployed, you can flesh out the rest of your application. If the path requested is not /links, your application should render a static HTML page, by doing the following steps:
Get the links from your previously deployed JSON response
Use HTMLRewriter to add these links to the static HTML page
Return the transformed HTML page from the Worker
Retrieve a static HTML page and modify it as required
Your Worker should begin by making a fetch request to https://static-links-page.signalnerve.workers.dev.
