Cloudflare Self-Hosting: Manual Deploy with Wrangler

Use this flow if the Deploy to Cloudflare button fails with Cannot provision a KV Namespace with the title "open-seo" because it already exists. The reliable path is to create Cloudflare resources yourself, put their IDs into wrangler.jsonc, then deploy with Wrangler.

1) Clone your OpenSEO repo

Fork every-app/open-seo on GitHub if you want a repo you control for future updates, then clone it locally:

git clone https://github.com/YOUR_GITHUB_USER/open-seo.git
cd open-seo
corepack enable
pnpm install

If you do not need a fork, clone the upstream repo instead:

git clone https://github.com/every-app/open-seo.git
cd open-seo
corepack enable
pnpm install

2) Log in to Cloudflare

pnpm exec wrangler login

3) Create Cloudflare resources

Use unique names so they do not collide with resources that already exist in your Cloudflare account. Replace YOUR_SUFFIX with something unique to you, for example your GitHub username or company name.

pnpm exec wrangler kv namespace create open-seo-YOUR_SUFFIX
pnpm exec wrangler kv namespace create open-seo-oauth-YOUR_SUFFIX
pnpm exec wrangler d1 create open-seo-YOUR_SUFFIX
pnpm exec wrangler r2 bucket create open-seo-YOUR_SUFFIX

Save the IDs and names printed by Wrangler:

The first KV namespace ID is for the KV binding.
The second KV namespace ID is for the OAUTH_KV binding.
The D1 database_id is for the DB binding.
The R2 bucket name is for the R2 binding.

4) Edit `wrangler.jsonc`

Open wrangler.jsonc and replace only your Cloudflare resource values. Keep the binding names exactly as shown below, because the application code expects those names.

"kv_namespaces": [
  {
    "binding": "KV",
    "id": "YOUR_KV_NAMESPACE_ID",
  },
  {
    "binding": "OAUTH_KV",
    "id": "YOUR_OAUTH_KV_NAMESPACE_ID",
  },
],
"d1_databases": [
  {
    "binding": "DB",
    "database_name": "open-seo-YOUR_SUFFIX",
    "database_id": "YOUR_D1_DATABASE_ID",
    "migrations_dir": "drizzle",
  },
],
"r2_buckets": [
  {
    "bucket_name": "open-seo-YOUR_SUFFIX",
    "binding": "R2",
  },
],

Do not use wrangler deploy --update-config for this step. Edit wrangler.jsonc manually so "migrations_dir": "drizzle" stays in the D1 database config.

5) Deploy

pnpm run deploy

6) Configure authentication and secrets

Follow Configure authentication and secrets, then set the values with Wrangler:

pnpm exec wrangler secret put TEAM_DOMAIN
pnpm exec wrangler secret put POLICY_AUD
pnpm exec wrangler secret put DATAFORSEO_API_KEY

7) Optional: add an R2 lifecycle rule

DataForSEO API responses are cached in R2 under the dataforseo-cache/ prefix. This step is optional, but recommended to automatically clean up expired cache objects:

pnpm exec wrangler r2 bucket lifecycle add open-seo-YOUR_SUFFIX dataforseo-cache-expiry dataforseo-cache/ --expire-days 7

8) Validate setup

Open your Worker URL again.
Sign in with Cloudflare Access.
OpenSEO should load after login.

If login fails, check /api/health, the Worker logs, and the binding values in wrangler.jsonc.
