Text Search is hard to use

Two pieces of feedback: 1. The docs don't teach useStableValue or (less good imo) useStableQuery, don't link to https://stack.convex.dev/help-my-app-is-overreacting (which is long though), so creating a search interface is not straightforward without results flickering. 2. Now that search changed from prefix to fuzzy, it no longer fits super well the use case of looking up people by name (or room by name etc.), because irrelevant results are still returned. This could be alleviated (even if it's not the ideal fix) if the docs gave a recipe for computing the relevance score on the client side (or some measures resembling the relevance score)....

Uncaught Error: The arguments to a Convex function must be an object. Received: skip

Using convex-react-query, I noticed there is a new skip arguments that can be used to disable a query when the arguments is not available yet. But I get this error: Uncaught Error: The arguments to a Convex function must be an object. Received: skip. Which means the convex client complaining about the args. Looked at the code and normally the query shouldn't run at all. Any idea? Maybe I understand it wrong. My code: ```typescript export function useGetDocument() {...

[Convex + Clerk + Next.js] Cant make static routes

In order to make Convex + Clerk work I need to pass useAuth() to the ConvexProviderWithClerk. This only works if I make my ClerkProvider dynamic with passing the dynamic prop. This makes it impossible to render a page statically in my Next.js app....

Patching convex-helpers package

I'd love to add a new type of Zod Id (similar to Zid but our own custom Fid) to my schema and have it work with zodToConvex. I'm wondering what the easiest approach would be and whether there are any docs on how to add a patch to the helpers package

custom guest auth

Hi everyone, I want to do a custom guest auth with convex. Basically, the user inputs their name and they are logged in. The way I was thinking is I will create the user's account in db and a token for log in. Not sure how can it work with convex. Can someone help?

How to self host convex on docker container?

Hi everyone, I'm building an internal web application that won't be available to the public. I want to self-host the convex server on a Docker container. Is this possible? Also, I wonder how the Dockerfile will look and how the serverless part really works. I couldn't find much on the internet, would appreciate any help 🙏.

Can actions actually return a value?

The documentation is not very clear about whether actions can have a return value or not. If they can't, I'd apprecaite it if the documentation could acknowledge this clearly. If they can, I'd appreciate a clear example showcasing how to do this. For example, I would like to have this kind of action. ```typescript...

Basic Auth for log stream webhook

Currently when configuring log stream webhook, it only accepts a URL without any options to add auth related info for this endpoint. It would be great if we can provide basic auth information when adding this endpoint. The workaround is to include auth info in the URL which is not secure.

Setting Up Convex Auth In Mono Repo

Hi everyone, I’m struggling to implement a basic email/password signup flow with email verification and password reset functionality using Convex Auth in my monorepo. The documentation has been quite unclear, especially regarding the concepts of flows and providers, making it difficult to follow. Could anyone guide me on how to create a straightforward account creation and signup process? Any tips or examples would be greatly appreciated!...
