Artifacts, the Git-speaking file system, is now in open beta
Hi, it's Shii-chan! A file system that speaks Git just opened up to everyone!
Cloudflare ChangelogWhat was announced?
Cloudflare's Changelog announced that Artifacts is now in open beta. Artifacts is a versioned file system that speaks Git. It's built for scale, so you can create a repository per project, user, session, or task.
What changes
Here's what you can do:
- Deploy to Workers: connect an Artifacts repository through Workers Builds. Pushes to the production branch deploy the updated Worker, and other branches create or update Worker Previews
- Manage repositories programmatically: with an Artifacts binding from a Worker, create or fork repos, inspect files and commits, read files by path, and issue repo-scoped Git tokens
- React to changes: subscribe to events when a repository is created, imported, forked, deleted, pushed to, cloned, or fetched
- Control where data lives: store and process your data in the US or EU
- Monitor usage: view total operations, pulls, pushes, errors, and error rates in the dashboard or via API
