Purpose

Connecting to external data sources through your Starbase instance can help enhance your external database, whether it's by caching query data, serving as a data transformation layer (either before reaching the database, or before returning back to the client), acting as an extension to your database for development, or more.

This pull request makes it possible for the Worker to forward requests directly to your database via native drivers utilizing the Outerbase SDK. You can still opt to pass in an Outerbase API key instead and the request will be routed to Outerbase, but this will perhaps remove an extra hop/step in the flow by connecting to your database directly.

This also fixes issue #40 where the REST endpoint does not work for DELETE calls.
