pubnub-functions

Create, configure, and deploy PubNub Functions 2.0 event handlers, triggers, and serverless endpoints. Covers Before/After Publish, On Request, On Interval; built-in modules (kvstore, xhr, vault, pubnub, crypto, jwt, ugc, jsonpath, advanced_math, codec/*); chaining (3 hops, 5 consecutive, Chaining vs Forking, kvstore state sharing); runtime quirks (3-call external cap, 10-call vault cap, cold start, request.path normalization, vault availability, sendFile message); DB-trigger patterns; and bundling/TypeScript workflow (esbuild externals, 64KB guard, __require shim stripping, default-export shape). Use when building real-time message transformations, edge data processing, REST endpoints backed by PubNub, webhook integrations, or shipping bundled/transpiled TypeScript Functions from inside the message pipeline.
