fine-grained caching

Hey, Lets say we have Twitter like system with messages and likes of messages. Do I understand it right that getMessages paginated query would completely wipe it's cache once any message like count changes and refresh all messages instead of only this one? I think this is very important problem that's there is no caching control for developers....

reports of blocked access

Just to confirm what @jamwt is saying above, we don't see reproducible Convex issues on our end and are able to access the backends/applications in question but it's very possible there is some flagging going on with a particular ISP. We're actively investigating. Let me know in-thread if anyone is seeing similar issues

Indexing Objects / Arrays

Hey everyone, Iโ€™m curious about the benefits that object and array types bring to web applications. In my opinion, one purpose of using these types is to store data in the schema that isnโ€™t directly displayed to users. However, one downside is that you canโ€™t index object or array types....

Why no _updatedTime

I'm curious why _creationTime is a default column for every table but not something like _updatedTime. Finding myself adding updatedAt: Date.now() as an arg in lots of mutations

Convex Better Auth

Hey I'm setting up a complex auth situation and stumbled across: https://github.com/ping-maxwell/convex-better-auth which solves my problem of crazy pricing and 3rd party data storage with clerk, but there's several drawbacks mentioned in the repo. I already have a template set up with convex auth, but as I'll need to support organizations for my app, I know that I'll need to eventually move to something like this or host my own auth with something a bit more vanilla like neon or planetscale.

Optimistic updates for endpoints

Yes but this is for mutations and queries, for example if I make a request to an endpoint in convex how do I handle an optimistic update. Thereโ€™s no way to access the local cache.

Convex alpha including local dev deployments

For anyone with time and interest in giving some feedback on some upcoming features, here's a new convex alpha npm i convex@1.18.3-alpha.3 that includes local development deployments. I'd love to hear how this works for you, but don't install this alpha if it's not a good time for you to use something not quite stable to give feedback. These features will come to a stable release soon. In particular, we're aware of issues with running local deployments on Windows without the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable installed....
