windmill/backend/windmill-api/src/apps_raw_bundle.rs

//! Server-side bundling of a raw app's sources.
//!
//! A raw app is served as a compiled js/css bundle, so every deploy path has to
//! compile first: the editor bundles in a browser iframe, the CLI bundles on the
//! developer's machine. Neither is reachable from a plain API call, which is why
//! `/apps/update_raw` takes the bundle as multipart and why there was no way to
//! deploy a raw app from an API client (an MCP agent, most of all — its only
//! app-write tool was the low-code one, which converted the app instead).
//!
//! The compile runs as a normal bun job on a worker: no new job kind, no new
//! executor, and the build's logs, timeout, cancellation and attribution are the
//! ones every other job gets. The build itself is `wmill app bundle`, so this
//! adds no bundler of its own to keep in step with the CLI's and the editor's.
