Type error using ActoinCache

mport { ActionCache } from "@convex-dev/action-cache";
import { components, internal } from "./_generated/api";
import { action } from "./_generated/server";

export const getAgjdbArqatendCached = new ActionCache(components.actionCache, {
  name: "getAgjdbArqatend",
  action: internal.actions.internal.getAgjdbArqatendInternal
})

export const getAgjdbArqatendCachedAction = action({
  handler: async (ctx): Promise<string> => {
    return await getAgjdbArqatendCached.fetch(ctx, {});
  }
})

mport { ActionCache } from "@convex-dev/action-cache";
import { components, internal } from "./_generated/api";
import { action } from "./_generated/server";

export const getAgjdbArqatendCached = new ActionCache(components.actionCache, {
  name: "getAgjdbArqatend",
  action: internal.actions.internal.getAgjdbArqatendInternal
})

export const getAgjdbArqatendCachedAction = action({
  handler: async (ctx): Promise<string> => {
    return await getAgjdbArqatendCached.fetch(ctx, {});
  }
})

'getAgjdbArqatendCached' implicitly has type 'any' because it does not have a type annotation and is referenced directly or indirectly in its own initializer.ts(7022)

Some one can help me to understand this error? On the backend the function is working, but that type error is anoying

Add return types to the handler of what is using the cache, not just the cached action. if those are depending on the cached action type for their return values. https://github.com/get-convex/cache/blob/main/README.md#L18-L28

the cache cannot be exported for the typesafety to work

I have done so successfully, so I'm curious what issue your running into and what type definitions might be necessary to help the typscript language server out. And you're on the latest version?

collin_codes_77•2mo ago

yes i'm on the right version i believe there's probably an import cycle of some sort

Correct. The two ways of solving this are: 1. Define export const getAgjdbArqatendCached in a separate file from the action it's referencing 2. Don't export it. Just const getAgjdbArqatendCached It both impacts the internal.actions.internal type (by exporting) and depends on it (internal.actions.internal.getAgjdbArqatendInternal)
