React Testing Library + Vitest + Convex Test?

Can convex-test be used with Vitest and React Testing Library during unit tests for components? Docs for convex-test point to examples of testing queries and mutations directly (from within the backend convex directory). Can it also be used to mock component tests which indirectly trigger Convex queries and mutations? Are there best practice examples of this I can see?...

Convex migrations in self-hosted

Hi, I am evaluating convex for an app that currently uses yjs / livekit but got too complex. for the saas I can use convex hosted, but many business clients want full on premise solution so I need to self host. I see in the docs you don't support migrations, but is there any migration guide or info and are people doing it in practice? I also can't afford an enterprise plan with on premise support as I'm just getting started and they are SMBs, but I also can't adopt convex without self hosting for them on their servers, but they won't need a lot of scaling.. I will not be self-hosting the saas version. ...

Exponential number of indexes required?

I'm trying to build a component that shows data according to multiple filters which can be set or unset. Can I just define one index with all these fields in there and ignore set equality filters to undefined values for the filters that are not set? If not, how should I construct my indices? The list I'm filtering over is potentially very long....

Bandwidth usage multiplied by piping arguments?

Hellooo! I noticed that one of my daily cron jobs is incurring rater high bandwidth usage. We have a video streaming app, and this cron job collects all watch events within the past 24 hours (using the _creationTime index) and populates three aggregates with these documents.

Convex + Tanstack Start + Clerk

Hi! I'm trying to add authentication using Clerk to the Trellaux example from the Tanstack-Start site (https://tanstack.com/router/latest/docs/framework/react/examples/start-convex-trellaux). However, the guides from the Convex/Clerk site do not work. ConvexProviderWithClerk seems not supported on Start, so in Convex functions I am not able to get the user identity with ctx.auth.getUserIdentity(). Is there any way to make it work? Thanks...
