@cio/tenant-router

Cloudflare Worker that fronts every browser-facing ClassroomIO host:

  • *.myclassroomio.com/* — free-tier tenant sites
  • myclassroomio.com/* — apex (301 → classroomio.com)
  • app.classroomio.com/* — admin dashboard
  • embed.classroomio.com/* — public embed widget scripts (R2 assets bucket, path-for-path)
  • BYOD customer domains via Approximated (their proxy forwards to cio-api.onrender.com directly, not through this Worker)

The Worker forwards each request to one of two Render services based on path:

Host / path Upstream
embed.* R2 assets bucket — /{widget} maps to internal keys (src/embed-assets.ts)
/proxy/* API service (/proxy prefix stripped, rest forwarded as-is)
anything else Dashboard service

The /proxy prefix is the same-origin escape hatch the dashboard's browser code uses so its auth cookies stay host-only while still reaching the API. Example: a browser request to https://app.classroomio.com/proxy/api/auth/sign-in/email becomes /api/auth/sign-in/email on the API service (where Better Auth lives).

It preserves the original host as X-Forwarded-Host so:

  • The dashboard's SvelteKit adapter-node reads it via HOST_HEADER=x-forwarded-host and event.url.host becomes the tenant/admin/BYOD host.
  • Better Auth on the API emits session cookies without a Domain attribute (see packages/db/src/auth.ts — crossSubDomainCookies: { enabled: false }), so the browser scopes each session to the exact host it called. Tenants on acme.myclassroomio.com, the admin app on app.classroomio.com, and BYOD learn.acme.com each get host-only sessions.

Deploy

pnpm --filter @cio/tenant-router deploy

Live tail:

pnpm --filter @cio/tenant-router tail

Env vars (wrangler.toml [vars])

Var Value
DASHBOARD_UPSTREAM_HOST .onrender.com host of the dashboard service (no scheme)
API_UPSTREAM_HOST .onrender.com host of the API service
APEX_REDIRECT_TARGET URL to redirect myclassroomio.com apex to (default https://classroomio.com)
EMBED_HOST Hostname for public embed widgets (default embed.classroomio.com)
API_URL API origin injected into embed scripts as window.CIO.apiBaseUrl

Update the values in wrangler.toml after looking them up in the Render dashboard.

Cloudflare DNS expected setup

myclassroomio.com zone:

  • * CNAME → any valid target, Proxied
  • @ CNAME → any valid target, Proxied (Worker serves the 301)

classroomio.com zone:

  • app CNAME → Proxied so the route binds
  • embed CNAME → Proxied (serves embeds/* from R2 via Worker)
  • api CNAME → DNS only (server-to-server callers and webhooks bypass the Worker)

BYOD custom domains

Handled by Approximated, not this Worker. Cloudflare for SaaS can't front a Render origin (Render itself runs on Cloudflare), so we use Approximated's dedicated edge cluster instead. See apps/api/src/services/org/domain.ts for the integration. Customers point an A record at the IP Approximated returns; the proxy forwards directly to cio-api.onrender.com.
