How to use useMutation with convex-ents. API object TYPE error

in my frontend i'm calling this api

  const storeUser = useMutation(api.users.store);
  const storeUser = useMutation(api.users.store);


but i get this type error. the function still runs and works as expected.

Property 'users' does not exist on type '{ clerkBackend: { AdminGetUserList: FunctionReference<"action", "public", {}, { id: string; email: string | undefined; firstName: string | null; }[] | null>; }; messageActions: { ...; }; }'
Property 'users' does not exist on type '{ clerkBackend: { AdminGetUserList: FunctionReference<"action", "public", {}, { id: string; email: string | undefined; firstName: string | null; }[] | null>; }; messageActions: { ...; }; }'


it cannot find the api because i have replaced...

// import { mutation, query } from './_generated/server';
// import { mutation, query } from './_generated/server';


with

import { mutation } from './functions';
import { mutation } from './functions';


this is part of my functions.ts

import { entsTableFactory } from 'convex-ents';
import {
  customCtx,
  customMutation,
  customQuery
} from 'convex-helpers/server/customFunctions';
import { GenericDatabaseReader, GenericDatabaseWriter } from 'convex/server';
import { DataModel } from './_generated/dataModel';
import {
  internalMutation as baseInternalMutation,
  internalQuery as baseInternalQuery,
  mutation as baseMutation,
  query as baseQuery
} from './_generated/server';
import { entDefinitions } from './schema';
import { MutationCtx } from './types';

type LegacyTables = 'messages' | 'emailList' | 'users';

export const query = customQuery(
  baseQuery,
  customCtx(async (ctx) => {
    return {
      table: entsTableFactory(ctx, entDefinitions),
      db: ctx.db as unknown as GenericDatabaseReader<
        Pick<DataModel, LegacyTables>
      >
    };
  })
);

export const mutation = customMutation(
  baseMutation,
  customCtx(async (ctx) => {
    return {
      table: entsTableFactory(ctx, entDefinitions),
      db: ctx.db as GenericDatabaseWriter<Pick<DataModel, LegacyTables>>
    };
  })
);
import { entsTableFactory } from 'convex-ents';
import {
  customCtx,
  customMutation,
  customQuery
} from 'convex-helpers/server/customFunctions';
import { GenericDatabaseReader, GenericDatabaseWriter } from 'convex/server';
import { DataModel } from './_generated/dataModel';
import {
  internalMutation as baseInternalMutation,
  internalQuery as baseInternalQuery,
  mutation as baseMutation,
  query as baseQuery
} from './_generated/server';
import { entDefinitions } from './schema';
import { MutationCtx } from './types';

type LegacyTables = 'messages' | 'emailList' | 'users';

export const query = customQuery(
  baseQuery,
  customCtx(async (ctx) => {
    return {
      table: entsTableFactory(ctx, entDefinitions),
      db: ctx.db as unknown as GenericDatabaseReader<
        Pick<DataModel, LegacyTables>
      >
    };
  })
);

export const mutation = customMutation(
  baseMutation,
  customCtx(async (ctx) => {
    return {
      table: entsTableFactory(ctx, entDefinitions),
      db: ctx.db as GenericDatabaseWriter<Pick<DataModel, LegacyTables>>
    };
  })
);


how can i fix this? As soon as put this back in

`// import { mutation, query } from './_generated/server';
`// import { mutation, query } from './_generated/server';
`

everything works.

Hi @everyone with everything going on today I forgot to post on discord about our EU launch! We have a region in Dublin now! You can start using it immediately, even for folks on the free plan. https://news.convex.dev/we-finally-got-our-eu-visa/ Stay tuned for more regions but also stay tuned for more infra improvements where we improve latency for teams no matter where their servers are located. Just at the tip of the iceberg re all the optimizations we have lined up.
