usual couple of gut checks are
1. are you sure
npx convex dev is running?
2. are your actions exported?
3. do you see the actions listed in your dashboard?yes it is running
the actions are exported
yes i see the actions in my dashboard
this is an example of the donation_controller in controllers and DonationRepository in repositories
got it, thanks. why is the controllers directory a different color in vs code? is that some special directory type?
because the your type completions are indicating there are a different set of paths on this particular api object:
ref_controller? users_controller. etc
i try move it out of the folder to convex top folder but still can't find api route
do you have a second, older convex folder around? that contains something called "users_controller"? b/c again, this api object seems to have that on it.
the api that recognize here is there using query function
i cant find any my action function
i cant find my action function api
Are these functions exported somewhere not in the screenshot? I don't see them exported in the screenshots you've shared so far
but if i remove any interface its found in the api route but i have ts error
any suggestion?
Can you try removing the
any type annotation on your functions? Given that you're exporting your functions and they appear in the dashboard, I'd guess that at runtime you can call these, but TypeScript is just confused.
The api TypeScript type works by essentially looking for all exports that match the type returned by query, mutation, and action, so the any is likely messing with that.
In case you run into these TS errors without the any, https://docs.convex.dev/functions/actions#dealing-with-circular-type-inference (you might need to add a return type annotation to handler in a few places)Actions | Convex Developer Hub
