As said, there is no need for coding yet, we have created a Github repository ↗, a recipe, containing the most simple Deno web application. The repo will be used as a source from which the app will be built.

🚀No Fuss, Just Deploy with Speed!

This is the most bare-bones example of Deno app running on Zerops — as few libraries as possible, just a simple endpoint with connect, read and write to a Zerops PostgreSQL database.

Log in/sign up to Zerops GUI ↗
In the Projects box click on Import a project and paste in the following yml config (source ↗):

project:
  name: recipe-deno
  tags:
    - zerops-recipe

services:
  - hostname: api
    type: deno@1
    buildFromGit: https://github.com/zeropsio/recipe-deno
    enableSubdomainAccess: true

  - hostname: db
    type: postgresql@16
    mode: NON_HA
    priority: 1

Click on Import project and wait until all pipelines have finished.

That's it, your application is now up and running! ⭐ Let's check it works:

A subdomain should have been enabled and visible in the project's IP addressed & Public Routing Overview box. Its format should look similar to this https://api-7f6-8000.prg1.zerops.app.
Click or the subdomain URL to open it in a browser and you should see

{"message":"This is a simple, basic Deno / Oak application running on Zerops.io,\n      each request adds an entry to the PostgreSQL database and returns a count.\n      See the source repository (https://github.com/zeropsio/recipe-deno) for more information.","newEntry":"274b0cc1-5b6d-4351-b8ec-53cf82bd9d0f","count":1}
