Combine both cron and HTTP triggers in the same deta micro don't work

[egave]

Hi,
I'm trying to implement the sample given in deta documentation https://docs.deta.sh/docs/micros/cron to combine both cron and HTTP triggers in the same deta micro.
But it doesn't work as the use of deta library don't give us the ability to use app.get or app.post for the HTTP trigger.
'App' Deta interface only seem to have lib.cron or lib.run definition.
Any idea what I am doing wrong ?

import { App } from 'deta'
import express from 'express'
import { webhookCallback } from 'grammy'
import { bot } from './bot'

const app = App(express());
//const app = express();

app.use(express.json())

app.post('/' + process.env.SECRET_PATH, webhookCallback(bot, 'express'))

app.lib.cron((event: any) => {
    return 'Hello Deta, I am a cron job';
});

module.exports = app;

Best regards,
Enguerrand

when you create a micro, you get an http endpoint which you would use to invoke your http code. you will find it again in your micro's details page or by typing deta details in your terminal (in the root of your micro)

Thanks for your reply @abdelhai . But I succeeded to create an endpoint when creating a deta micro-service. What I would like to achieve is to combine the use of a CRON and endpoint together in a same Micro-Service as presented in https://docs.deta.sh/docs/micros/cron. The sample code provided in the docs don't work for me.
I have the following errors :

Property 'use' does not exist on type 'DetaLib'.
Property 'post' does not exist on type 'DetaLib'.

Any idea ?

hi @egave , seems like using import might be the issue here. Unfortunately Micros do not support es modules yet. Can you please use require and try again?

const { App } = require('deta');
const express = require('express');

const app = App(express());

Hi @aavshr ! Thank you for your help. I just give it a try on your solution. But I have the following error on Visor logs :
TypeError: express is not a function at Object.<anonymous> (/var/task/dist/index.js:8:17) at Module._compile (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1085:14) at Object.Module._extensions..js (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:1114:10) at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:950:32) at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:790:12) at Module.require (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:974:19) at require (internal/modules/cjs/helpers.js:101:18)

Here is my code, once transcripted it in javascript :

Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true });
const { App } = require('deta');
const { express } = require('express');
const grammy_1 = require("grammy");
const bot_1 = require("./bot");

const app = App(express());

app.use(express.json());
app.post('/' + process.env.SECRET_PATH, (0, grammy_1.webhookCallback)(bot_1.bot, 'express'));
app.lib.cron((event) => {
    return 'Hello Deta, I am a cron job';
});
module.exports = app;

Anyway, I finally have opted for a second micro-service to implement the CRON :-))

hello @egave , this was because of the destructured import for express const {express } = require('express') instead of const express = require('express'). Hopefully you had no issues with the second Micro for the cron.
