The IoT platform Cloudflare didn't build. Point your hardware at one endpoint over HTTPS or WebSocket, watch variables appear on their own, build realtime drag-and-drop dashboards, automate, and read it all back through a clean API — entirely on infrastructure you own. nodrix is single-tenant and open source: it deploys into your Cloudflare account on Workers, Durable Objects, D1, and R2.
Features
- 📡 Telemetry over HTTPS or WebSocket — hardware POSTs JSON to a project; variables auto-create on first sight. No schema to define, no MQTT broker to run.
- 📊 Realtime dashboards — a drag-and-drop widget grid streams updates over hibernating WebSockets; share any dashboard read-only by public link.
- 🧩 Embeddable widgets — every widget is a framework-agnostic Web Component you can lift straight into your own app.
- 🎮 Two-way control — toggles, sliders, color pickers, and buttons write values back to hardware via short polls or a control socket.
- 🤖 Visual automations — variable, schedule, sunrise/sunset, and event triggers run conditions and actions: webhooks, code snippets, and service integrations.
- 🔌 Integrations — fan out to HTTP, email, and chat (Slack, Telegram, Discord, and more).
- 📖 Clean read API — latest state, time-series, and variable listings behind one token.
- 🧠 Native MCP server — an owner-gated Model Context Protocol endpoint with a Claude connector for AI clients (off by default).
- 👥 Multi-user — owner / admin / member roles, email invites, and social sign-in (Google, GitHub).
- 📝 Audit log — every privileged action recorded and paginated in the UI.
Quick start
-
Deploy to your Cloudflare account — one click, or
bun run deploy:platformfrom a clone. -
Create the owner account — the first visit prompts a "Create owner account" page; the first signup becomes
owner. -
Create a project and mint a project token from the dashboard.
-
Send telemetry — variables are created the moment data arrives:
curl -X POST https://<your-worker>/v1/telemetry \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $NODRIX_TOKEN" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"metrics":{"temperature":23.4,"humidity":61}}'
-
Read it back:
curl https://<your-worker>/v1/projects/<project>/state \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $NODRIX_TOKEN"
Architecture
- Worker (worker/) — a single Hono app. Durable Objects for Project, Dashboard, Scheduler, and the MCP agent; one Workflow for provisioning; D1 (metadata), R2 (telemetry history), KV (read cache + JWKS).
- Web (web/) — Vue 3 + Tailwind + Reka UI admin panel and drag-and-drop dashboard builder, built and served as Worker static assets.
- Shared (shared/) — framework-agnostic Web Component widgets, the integration catalog, and automation blocks, consumed by both web and worker so there is a single source of truth.
- Deploy (deploy/) — the small config carrier behind the one-click Deploy to Cloudflare.

Storage
| Store | Holds |
|---|---|
| Project DO (SQLite) | Latest variable state, recent ring buffer, pending control writes, flush cursor |
| R2 | Cold telemetry history (NDJSON, partitioned by project + hour) |
| D1 | Users, sessions, accounts, projects, variables, dashboards, tokens, automations, integrations, audit log, OAuth provider config (metadata only — never any telemetry point) |
| KV | Cached /state responses and JWKS |
| Dashboard DO | Per-dashboard subscriptions + hibernated WebSockets |
| Scheduler DO | One alarm at the next schedule/sunset automation fire time |
Authentication
Better Auth handles sign-in. Email + password is on by default; Google and GitHub OAuth can be enabled at runtime from Settings → Sign-in providers (the owner enters a client ID + secret per provider, and the login page shows the matching buttons immediately).
The first signup on a fresh deployment becomes owner. After that, registration is closed: the owner invites people from Users, each with an owner / admin / member role. Sessions are cookie-based and persist 30 days; each device is a separate session, listed and revokable from Users.
Development
nodrix uses Bun.
bun install bun run dev # worker (wrangler dev) bun run dev:web # web (vite) bun run typecheck bun run build bun run deploy:platform # build + deploy the worker
