Import Data URL not working on Deno Deploy about deno HOT 5 CLOSED

This works in Deno Deploy if you use application/javascript. So the example you just linked to does actually work in Deploy.
However dynamically importing a typescript class won't work currently, because in Deploy the typescript compiler isn't available at run-time.

ahh, thank you. So i just need to transpile it first in theory? Is their any plan to support Deno Deploy typescript compiling at run time?

from deno.

What would be the best way to transpile at runtime? esbuild wasm? Or is there something else?

I thought a bit of my code might be useful. This is what works locally, but not in Deno Deploy:

  const fileContents = await toText(file.Contents);

  const enc = base64.encodeBase64(fileContents);

  const apiUrl = `data:application/typescript;base64,${enc}`;

  const apiModule = await import(apiUrl);

  const api = apiModule.default;

Alright, i was able to get this working with esbuild.

I imported the WASM module:

import * as esbuild from 'https://deno.land/x/[email protected]/wasm.js';

Then, due to issues with using workers on deno deploy, had to add a call to:

await esbuild
    .initialize({
      worker: false,
    })

Then, i was able to update my code to use transpiled TS and a javascript data url:

  const fileContents = await toText(file.Contents);

  const result = await esbuild.transform(fileContents, { loader: 'ts' });

  const enc = base64.encodeBase64(result.code);

  const apiUrl = `data:application/javascript;base64,${enc}`;

  const apiModule = await import(apiUrl);

  const api = apiModule.default
