Trpc Patterns

ChatJS tRPC patterns

Backend

• Add feature routers under apps/chat/trpc/routers/*.router.ts and register them in apps/chat/trpc/routers/_app.ts.
• Use protectedProcedure for authenticated operations.
• Validate inputs with Zod and verify ownership before mutations.
• Keep database access in apps/chat/lib/db/queries.ts.

React queries

Use useTRPC() with TanStack Query:

const trpc = useTRPC();
const query = useQuery({
  ...trpc.feature.list.queryOptions(),
  enabled: Boolean(condition),
});

For mutations, use generated mutation options and invalidate related keys after success:

const trpc = useTRPC();
const queryClient = useQueryClient();

const mutation = useMutation(
  trpc.feature.update.mutationOptions({
    onSuccess: () =>
      queryClient.invalidateQueries({
        queryKey: trpc.feature.list.queryKey(),
      }),
  })
);

Handle loading and error states in the consumer.
