Custom function for HTTP action?

I want to use the same authorization process for all HTTP actions in a project rather than including the auth code in each action. I thought a custom action might work, but after reading the Stack post about custom functions, and also reviewing the code in the convex-helpers package, HTTP actions don't appear to be supported. Am I reading that correctly?

Add clear and explicit way to exclude files from bundle

I found this post but making a new thread specifically because this is a feature request I keep getting the need to exclude bundled files from time to time. In particular, I have a file with testing helpers that fails to compile because convex-test uses crypto: ```ts...

Errors importing dayjs plugins

Hi, I have a file in convex/utils/dateToMs that I need to parse incoming dates in different formats. It requires the use of dayjs and some of it's plugins. The code seems to push successfully when just importing dayjs but the plugins are throwing an error: ``` import dayjs from "dayjs"; import customParseFormat from "dayjs/plugin/customParseFormat";...

ConvexQueryCacheProvider Behavior

I switched to using ConvexQueryCacheProvider in order to keep query subscriptions active for views that are closed and opened frequently. I get nice instant load times now on the screens/components I use it on. But if I check the network tab in chrome I’m seeing a request to the server going out every single time the page/components loads. Part of my goal was to freely call the cache without re-calling the convex server for data every single time. Am I doing something wrong or is this intended behavior?...

Too many concurrent requests - even though on pro

We are on a pro subscription, but still keep getting this error, when too many files are uploaded to convex: Too many concurrent requests. Your backend is limited to 64 concurrent actions. To get more resources, upgrade to Convex Pro. If you are already on Convex Pro, please contact support. How can we resolve this?...

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-react-query state and plan on useInfiniteQuery hook support

What is the plan for convex-react-query? Is it here to stay or just experimentation? Also any visibility on when useInfiniteQuery might be supported? Saw it was under the TODO section in the github repo. Started to have a look myself to the source code to see if I can help but still unsure how this would work and unfamiliar with the mechanism of the convex client.

[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...
