description	Manage Cloudflare Workers, KV, D1, R2, and secrets using the Wrangler CLI. Use when deploying workers, managing databases, storing objects, or configuring Cloudflare resources. Covers worker deployment, KV namespaces, D1 SQL databases, R2 object storage, secrets management, and tailing logs.

Cloudflare (Wrangler CLI)

Manage Cloudflare Workers and associated services via the wrangler CLI.

Prerequisites

• Node.js v20+ required
• Install: npm install -g wrangler or use project-local npx wrangler
• Auth: wrangler login (opens browser for OAuth)
• Verify: wrangler whoami

Quick Reference

Workers

# Initialize new worker

wrangler deployments view [deployment-id]

# Rollback
wrangler rollback [version-id]

# Delete worker
wrangler delete [name]

# Tail logs (live)
wrangler tail [worker]

Secrets

# Add/update secret (interactive)
wrangler secret put <key>

# Add secret from stdin
echo "value" | wrangler secret put <key>

# List secrets

D1 (SQL Database)

# Create database
wrangler d1 create <name>

# List databases
wrangler d1 list

# Database info
wrangler d1 info <name>

# Execute SQL
wrangler d1 execute <database> --command "SELECT * FROM users"

# Execute SQL file
wrangler d1 execute <database> --file schema.sql

# Local execution (for dev)

# Delete database
wrangler d1 delete <name>

# Migrations
wrangler d1 migrations create <database> <name>

wrangler d1 migrations list <database>

R2 (Object Storage)

# Create bucket
wrangler r2 bucket create <name>

# List buckets
wrangler r2 bucket list

# Delete bucket
wrangler r2 bucket delete <name>

# Upload object
wrangler r2 object put <bucket>/<key> --file <path>

# Download object
wrangler r2 object get <bucket>/<key> --file <path>

# Delete object
wrangler r2 object delete <bucket>/<key>

Queues

# Create queue
wrangler queues create <name>

# List queues
wrangler queues list

# Delete queue
wrangler queues delete <name>

Configuration Files

Wrangler supports both TOML and JSON/JSONC config formats:

• wrangler.toml — traditional format
• wrangler.json or wrangler.jsonc — newer, with JSON schema support

⚠️ Important: If both exist, JSON takes precedence. Pick one format to avoid confusion where edits to TOML are ignored.

JSONC format (with schema autocomplete)

{
  "$schema": "./node_modules/wrangler/config-schema.json",
  "name": "my-worker",
  "main": "src/index.ts",
  "compatibility_date": "2024-12-30"
}

TOML format

name = "my-worker"
main = "src/index.ts"
compatibility_date = "2024-12-30"

With bindings:

name = "my-worker"
main = "src/index.ts"
compatibility_date = "2024-12-30"

# KV binding
[[kv_namespaces]]
binding = "MY_KV"
id = "xxx"

# D1 binding
[[d1_databases]]
binding = "DB"
database_name = "my-db"
database_id = "xxx"

# R2 binding
[[r2_buckets]]
binding = "BUCKET"
bucket_name = "my-bucket"

# Environment variables
[vars]
API_URL = "https://api.example.com"

# Secrets (set via `wrangler secret put`)
# Referenced as env.SECRET_NAME in worker code

Static assets (for frameworks like Next.js):

name = "my-site"
main = ".open-next/worker.js"
compatibility_date = "2024-12-30"
compatibility_flags = ["nodejs_compat"]

[assets]
directory = ".open-next/assets"
binding = "ASSETS"

Common Patterns

Deploy with environment

wrangler deploy -e production
wrangler deploy -e staging

Custom domain (via dashboard or API)

Custom domains must be configured in the Cloudflare dashboard under Worker Settings > Domains & Routes, or via the Cloudflare API. Wrangler doesn't directly manage custom domains.

Local development with bindings

# Creates local D1/KV/R2 for dev
wrangler dev --local

Checking deployment status

wrangler deployments list
wrangler deployments view

What Wrangler Does NOT Do

• DNS management — Use the Cloudflare dashboard or API for DNS records
• Custom domains — Configure via dashboard (Worker Settings > Domains & Routes) or API
• SSL certificates — Managed automatically by Cloudflare when custom domains are added
• Firewall/WAF rules — Use dashboard or API

For DNS/domain management, see the cloudflare skill (uses Cloudflare API directly).

Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
"Not authenticated"	Run wrangler login
Node version error	Requires Node.js v20+
"No config found"	Ensure config file exists (wrangler.toml or wrangler.jsonc) or use -c path/to/config
Config changes ignored	Check for wrangler.json/wrangler.jsonc — JSON takes precedence over TOML
Binding not found	Check wrangler.toml bindings match code references
