Bun isn't working with @tryghost/admin-api yet due to lack of KeyObject crypto support

Integrations & API

Tonight I tried using the Bun JavaScript run time for a simple script to uploading Ghost’s admin’s API.

As advertised, it was easy to get started with Bun. Bun has TypeScript support of the box and includes support for top-level await.

It also seemed to have no problem with me installing and using the @tryghost/admin-api just like in Node. So far, so good.

But actually trying to upload something fails with an error:

109 | 
110 |   if (!secretOrPrivateKey && options.algorithm !== 'none') {
111 |     return failure(new Error('secretOrPrivateKey must have a value'));
112 |   }
113 | 
114 |   if (secretOrPrivateKey != null && !(secretOrPrivateKey instanceof KeyObject)) {
                                         ^
TypeError: Right hand side of instanceof is not an object
      at /home/mark/git/Ghost-new/node_modules/jsonwebtoken/sign.js:114:38

I traced this back to an open bug report about Bun not supporting some Node crypto features, including KeyObject: Implement `KeyObject` (`node:crypto`) · Issue #2036 · oven-sh/bun · GitHub

That was a blocker, and I gave up with Bun then.

But it wasn’t the only the significant bug I ran into Bun in my short time with it.

Bun also has a bug when fetch() is used on localhost URLs, although swapping them to 127.0.0.1 works fine:

Alll that is to say: Bun isn’t fully baked yet.
