Adapter Helper

The Adapter Helper provides a seamless way to interact with various platforms through a unified interface.

Import

import { Hono } from 'hono' import { env, getRuntimeKey } from 'hono/adapter'

env()

The env() function facilitates retrieving environment variables across different runtimes, extending beyond just Cloudflare Workers' Bindings. The value that can be retrieved with env(c) may be different for each runtimes.

import { env } from 'hono/adapter'  app.get('/env', (c) => {  // NAME is process.env.NAME on Node.js or Bun  // NAME is the value written in `wrangler.toml` on Cloudflare  const { NAME } = env<{ NAME: string }>(c)  return c.text(NAME) })

Supported Runtimes, Serverless Platforms and Cloud Services:

• Cloudflare Workers
  • wrangler.toml
  • wrangler.jsonc
• Deno
  • Deno.env
  • .env file
• Bun
  • Bun.env
  • process.env
• Node.js
  • process.env
• Vercel
  • Environment Variables on Vercel
• AWS Lambda
  • Environment Variables on AWS Lambda
• Lambda@Edge
  Environment Variables on Lambda are not supported by Lambda@Edge, you need to use Lamdba@Edge event as an alternative.
• Fastly Compute
  On Fastly Compute, you can use the ConfigStore to manage user-defined data.
• Netlify
  On Netlify, you can use the Netlify Contexts to manage user-defined data.

Specify the runtime

You can specify the runtime to get environment variables by passing the runtime key as the second argument.

app.get('/env', (c) => {  const { NAME } = env<{ NAME: string }>(c, 'workerd')  return c.text(NAME) })

getRuntimeKey()

The getRuntimeKey() function returns the identifier of the current runtime.

app.get('/', (c) => {  if (getRuntimeKey() === 'workerd') {  return c.text('You are on Cloudflare')  } else if (getRuntimeKey() === 'bun') {  return c.text('You are on Bun')  }  ... })

Available Runtimes Keys

Here are the available runtimes keys, unavailable runtime key runtimes may be supported and labeled as other, with some being inspired by WinterCG's Runtime Keys:

• workerd - Cloudflare Workers
• deno
• bun
• node
• edge-light - Vercel Edge Functions
• fastly - Fastly Compute
• other - Other unknown runtimes keys
