WARNING

This documentation assumes you are already familiar with Tanstack Query. If you need a refresher, please review the official Tanstack Query documentation before proceeding.

Query Options Utility

Use .queryOptions to configure queries. Use it with hooks like useQuery, useSuspenseQuery, or prefetchQuery.

const query = useQuery(orpc.planet.find.queryOptions({
  input: { id: 123 }, // Specify input if needed
  context: { cache: true }, // Provide client context if needed
  // additional options...
}))

Infinite Query Options Utility

Use .infiniteOptions to configure infinite queries. Use it with hooks like useInfiniteQuery, useSuspenseInfiniteQuery, or prefetchInfiniteQuery.

INFO

The input parameter must be a function that accepts the page parameter and returns the query input. Be sure to define the type for pageParam if it can be null or undefined.

const query = useInfiniteQuery(orpc.planet.list.infiniteOptions({
  input: (pageParam: number | undefined) => ({ limit: 10, offset: pageParam }),
  context: { cache: true }, // Provide client context if needed
  initialPageParam: undefined,
  getNextPageParam: lastPage => lastPage.nextPageParam,
  // additional options...
}))

Mutation Options

Use .mutationOptions to create options for mutations. Use it with hooks like useMutation.

const mutation = useMutation(orpc.planet.create.mutationOptions({
  context: { cache: true }, // Provide client context if needed
  // additional options...
}))

mutation.mutate({ name: 'Earth' })

Query/Mutation Key

Use .key to generate a QueryKey or MutationKey. This is useful for tasks such as revalidating queries, checking mutation status, etc.

INFO

The .key accepts partial deep input—there’s no need to supply full input.

const queryClient = useQueryClient()

// Invalidate all planet queries
queryClient.invalidateQueries({
  queryKey: orpc.planet.key(),
})

// Invalidate only regular (non-infinite) planet queries
queryClient.invalidateQueries({
  queryKey: orpc.planet.key({ type: 'query' })
})

// Invalidate the planet find query with id 123
queryClient.invalidateQueries({
  queryKey: orpc.planet.find.key({ input: { id: 123 } })
})

Calling Procedure Clients

Use .call to call a procedure client directly. It's an alias for corresponding procedure client.

const result = orpc.planet.find.call({ id: 123 })

Error Handling

Easily manage type-safe errors using our built-in isDefinedError helper.

import { isDefinedError } from '@orpc/client'

const mutation = useMutation(orpc.planet.create.mutationOptions({
  onError: (error) => {
    if (isDefinedError(error)) {
      // Handle the error here
    }
  }
}))

mutation.mutate({ name: 'Earth' })

if (mutation.error && isDefinedError(mutation.error)) {
  // Handle the error here
}
