Environment variables

vars are public, non-secret values. Structured-clone-compatible JSON enters env.

{
  "name": "hello-typescript",
  "main": "src/index.ts",
  "vars": {
    "GREETING": "Hello from TypeScript"
  }
}

export default {
  fetch(_request: Request, env: Env): Response {
    return new Response(env.GREETING);
  },
} satisfies ExportedHandler<Env>;

bun run oc types writes literals into worker-configuration.d.ts (for example GREETING: "Hello from TypeScript"). Regenerate types after changing vars. Offline bundles do not contain vars; run / deploy inject them.
