cloesce (alpha, v0.5.0)

[!WARNING] Cloesce is under active development, expanding its feature set as it pushes toward full Cloudflare support across any language. The syntax and features described here are subject to change as the project evolves.

Cloesce is a schema language that describes a full stack application built on Cloudflare's edge ecosystem. From one language, generate an entire application with support for:

How Easy can Full Stack Development Be?

kv Namespace {
    settings(id: int) -> json {
        "user/settings/{id}"
    }
}

r2 Bucket {
    avatar(id: int) {
        "user/avatars/{id}.png"
    }
}

d1 { Db }

[crud get, save, list]
model User for Db {
    primary {
        id: int
    }

    column {
        name: string
    }

    nav Posts::id {
        posts
    }

    kv Namespace::settings(id) {
        settings
    }

    r2 Bucket::avatar(id) {
        avatar
    }
}

api User {
    get helloWorld(self) -> User
}
