wrangler: Publish the worker script.
$ wrangler publish
try on your machine

The command "wrangler publish" is specific to the Cloudflare Workers platform and is used to publish your Cloudflare Worker script to the Cloudflare network.

Cloudflare Workers is a serverless platform that allows you to run JavaScript code at the edge of the Cloudflare network, enabling you to build powerful, globally distributed applications.

Here's how the "wrangler publish" command works:

  1. First, you need to have the Cloudflare Workers tool called "Wrangler" installed on your local machine. Wrangler is a command-line tool that provides a set of commands to develop, test, and publish Cloudflare Workers.

  2. Once you have your Cloudflare Worker script ready, you can use the "wrangler publish" command to deploy it to the Cloudflare network. This command will send your Worker script to Cloudflare's servers, where it will be distributed across their global network of data centers.

  3. Cloudflare will then make your Worker script accessible through the URL you have configured in your Wrangler configuration file (usually called "wrangler.toml"). This URL is often in the format "https://{name}.workers.dev", where {name} is a unique identifier for your deployment.

  4. After publishing your Worker script, Cloudflare will handle the scaling and fast delivery of your code. Your script will be executed at Cloudflare's edge locations closest to your users, providing low latency and increased performance.

Note that before running the "wrangler publish" command, you must ensure that your "wrangler.toml" configuration file is properly set up with your account information and project details.

Overall, the "wrangler publish" command is essential for deploying and making your Cloudflare Worker script available on the Cloudflare network, allowing you to leverage the benefits of serverless computing and global content delivery.
