Deno support?

[lucsoft]

Great thats its ESM Only, would now be nice if i could use Deno.serve instead instead of the current http server

Sorry, Node.js runtimes only.

btw why? NodeJS now support Request and Response which would be a super abstraction around handling HTTP so maybe not giving first class support but at least allows to hook into it would be nice

[panva]

why?

I have no interest in running oidc-provider outside of the Node.js runtime. That's not to say I will never have such interest, but if that was the case I'd rather start a fresh WebAPI based project than undergo a massive refactor of this one.

NodeJS now support Request and Response

There's no translation from Node's native http.IncomingMessage and http.ServerResponse to Request and Response in Node.js at the moment, and none is planned. Request/Response in Node.js is an artifact of the fetch() API, nothing more.

But if {insert runtime} marketing messages are anything to go by the {insert runtime} Node compatibility layer should allow you to run a node:http server and execute oidc-provider Provider.prototype.callback in it. That of course would require the other node:* compat modules in {insert runtime} to actually be compatible, which, let's face it, they aren't.

+1 for different runtimes (deno, bun, cloudflare workers, etc.)

I think the main problem for compatibility with other runtimes is that node-oidc-provider is tied to Koa. Maybe we can change the server handler to some other (like hono) in the next major release.

I appreciate the interest.

However, no need to + or - here. It is not in the cards/stars at all.

As a side note, oidc-provider is not tied to koa, it uses koa, yes, but what it is tied to is node's http.IncomingMessage and http.ServerResponse which is then abstracted over with koa.

If you want to use this in {X} then I'd suggest to go to {X} issue tracker and inquire about the progress of their promised node compatibility.

Subscribing to this in hopes something changes.
