Quickstart Tutorial

Build your first Epycbyte Function in a few steps.

Getting Started

In this quickstart guide, you'll learn how to get started with Epycbyte Functions using your favorite frontend framework (or no framework) to:

Create a function
Choose a runtime to use for your function
Run your function locally using the Epycbyte CLI
Deploy your function to Epycbyte

Prerequisites

You should have the latest version of Epycbyte CLI installed.
- To check your version: epycbyte --version
- To install or update Epycbyte CLI: pnpm yarn npm pnpm i -g epycbyte@latest

Creating a Epycbyte Function

Select Your Framework

Use the switcher on the top-right of the page to choose your preferred framework.
The implementation of the function will differ depending on the framework you choose.

Create an API Route

In the app directory:

mkdir -p ./app/api/hello/route.ts

Add the following code to ./app/api/hello/route.ts:

export const dynamic = 'force-dynamic';
// static by default, unless reading the request

export function GET(request: Request) {
  return new Response(`Hello from ${process.env.epycbyte_REGION}`);
}

Choose a Runtime (Optional)

You can optionally choose a runtime for your Function. If you don't specify a runtime, Epycbyte will automatically use the default runtime.

export const runtime = 'edge';

Testing Your Code Locally

Run your function locally using the Epycbyte CLI:
```
npx epycbyte serve
```
Access your function via HTTP at http://localhost:3000/api/hello.

Deploying to Epycbyte

Push your changes to your Git repository:

git add .
git commit -m "Initial Epycbyte Function"
git push

Deploy to Epycbyte using the Epycbyte CLI:
```
npx epycbyte deploy
```
