PartyServer for Cloudflare Durable Objects
JSON →PartyServer is a TypeScript library for building real-time applications on Cloudflare Durable Objects, inspired by PartyKit. It extends Durable Objects with features like room-based routing, lifecycle hooks (`onConnect`, `onMessage`, `onClose`), a unified API for managing hibernated and non-hibernated Durable Objects, and easy broadcasting. Key differentiators from PartyKit include decoupling the URL from the server name, omitting built-in bindings for other Cloudflare services (encouraging `wrangler`'s native support), and requiring manual Durable Object bindings and migrations in `wrangler.jsonc`. The current stable version is 0.4.1, with frequent patch and minor releases, indicating active development. It is primarily designed for the Cloudflare Workers environment and leverages WebSockets for real-time communication.
