usage in node

See original GitHub issue

Hi there – big fan, really love working with hono, it makes building services such a fun experience.

I know hono is built with web standards in mind, so only things like edge runtimes/deno/bun work, but I have a new API that uses some dependencies that only work in node right now. Is it possible to run hono in node? I saw this gist, which uses the Response and Request from node-fetch, but is this the recommended way to do so?

Hi @aulneau

It’s interesting to run the application built with Hono on Node.js. However, I do not know the better way to do it because I have only tried a few. I think node-fetch is not the best. Anyway, we have to do “polyfill”. Edge Runtime is an available option.

I’ll try it when I have time too. I’ll let you know here if I find a better way.

Despite the issue, I think it is a good idea to create an “adaptor” server for Node.

Very much agree! My favorite things about hono are more around how you construct an API versus where it can be deployed. Making it compatible with node would increase access to more people ✨
