:::caution LSP Problems
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using TypeScript, your editor may sometimes report type and import errors even while `wasp start` is running.
|
||||
|
||||
This happens when the TypeScript Language Server gets out of sync with the current code.
|
||||
If you're using VS Code, you can manually restart the language server by opening the command palette and selecting _"TypeScript: Restart TS Server."_
|
||||
Open the command pallete with:
|
||||
- `Ctrl` + `Shift` + `P` if you're on Windows or Linux.
|
||||
- `Cmd` + `Shift` + `P` if you're on a Mac.

|

|

Entities are the foundation of your app's data model. In short, an Entity defines a model in your database.
|
||||
|
||||
Wasp uses the excellent [Prisma ORM](https://www.prisma.io/) to implement all database functionality and occasionally enhances it with a thin abstraction layer. This means that you use the `schema.prisma` file to define your database models and relationships. Wasp understands the Prisma schema file and picks up all the models you define there. You can read more about this in the [Prisma Schema File](./prisma-file.md) section of the docs.
|
||||
@ -74,6 +76,46 @@ The above Prisma `model` definition tells Wasp to create a table for storing Tas
|
||||
- `description` - A string value for storing the task's description.
|
||||
- `isDone` - A boolean value indicating the task's completion status. If you don't set it when creating a new task, the database sets it to `false` by default.
|
||||
|
||||
<ShowForTs>
|
||||
|
||||
Wasp also exposes a type for working with the created Entity. You can import and use it like this:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { Task } from 'wasp/entities'
|
||||
|
||||
const task: Task = { ... }
|
||||
|
||||
// You can also define functions for working with entities
|
||||
function getInfoMessage(task: Task): string {
|
||||
const isDoneText = task.isDone ? "is done" : "is not done"
|
||||
return `Task '${task.description}' is ${isDoneText}.`
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Using the `Task` type in `getInfoMessageInfo`'s definition connects the argument's type with the `Task` entity.
|
||||
|
||||
This coupling removes duplication and ensures the function keeps the correct signature even if you change the entity. Of course, the function might throw type errors depending on how you change it, but that's precisely what you want!
|
||||
|
||||
Entity types are available everywhere, including the client code:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { Task } from "wasp/entities"
|
||||
|
||||
export function ExamplePage() {}
|
||||
const task: Task = {
|
||||
id: 123,
|
||||
description: "Some random task",
|
||||
isDone: false,
|
||||
}
|
||||
return <div>{task.description}</div>
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The mentioned type safety mechanisms also apply here: changing the task entity in our `schema.prisma` file changes the imported type, which might throw a type error and warn us that our task definition is outdated.

#### Type support for Actions
|
||||
|
||||
Wasp automatically generates the types `CreateTask` and `MarkTaskAsDone` based on the declarations in your Wasp file:
|
||||
|
||||
- `CreateTask` is a generic type that Wasp automatically generated based on the Action declaration for `createTask`.
|
||||
- `MarkTaskAsDone` is a generic type that Wasp automatically generated based on the Action declaration for `markTaskAsDone`.
|
||||
|
||||
You can use these types to specify the Action's input and output types.
|
||||
Use these types to type the Action's implementation.
|
||||
It's optional but very helpful since doing so properly types the Action's context.
|
||||
|
||||
The Action `createTask` expects to get an object of type `{ description: string }` and returns the newly created task (an object of type `Task`).
|
||||
In this case, TypeScript will know the `context.entities` object must include the `Task` entity.
|
||||
TypeScript also knows whether the `context` object includes user information (it depends on whether your Action uses auth).
|
||||
|
||||
The Action `markTaskAsDone`, expects an object of type `{ id: number }` and doesn't return anything (i.e., its return type is `void`).
|
||||
The generated types are generic and accept two optional type arguments: `Input` and `Output`.
|
||||
|
||||
We've derived most of the payload types from the type `Task`.
|
||||
1. `Input` - The argument (the payload) received by the Action function.
|
||||
2. `Output` - The Action function's return type.
|
||||
|
||||
Annotating the Actions is optional, but highly recommended. Doing so enables **full-stack type safety**. We'll see what this means when calling the Action from the client.
|
||||
Use these type arguments to type the Action's inputs and outputs.
|
||||
|
||||

<details>
|
||||
<summary>Explanation for the example above</summary>
|
||||
|
||||
Send and receive any superjson-compatible payload (e.g., Dates, Sets, Lists, circular references, etc.) and let Wasp take care of the (de)serialization.
|
||||
The above code says that the Action `createTask` expects an object with the new task's description (its input type is `Pick<Task, 'description'>`) and returns the new task (its output type is `Task`).
|
||||
|
||||
On the other hand, the Action `markTaskAsDone` expects an object of type `Pick<Task, 'id'>`. This type is derived from the `Task` entity type.
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't care about typing the Action's inputs and outputs, you can omit both type arguments.
|
||||
TypeScript will then infer the most general types (`never` for the input and `unknown` for the output).
|
||||
|
||||
Specifying `Input` or `Output` is completely optional, but we highly recommended it. Doing so gives you:
|
||||
- Type support for the arguments and the return value inside the implementation.
|
||||
- **Full-stack type safety**. We'll explore what this means when we discuss calling the Action from the client.

Read more about type support for implementing Actions in the [API Reference](#implementing-actions).
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip Inferring the return type
|
||||
|
||||
If don't want to explicitly type the Action's return value, the `satisfies` keyword tells TypeScript to infer it automatically:
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const createFoo = (async (_args, context) => {
|
||||
const foo = await context.entities.Foo.create()
|
||||
return {
|
||||
newFoo: foo,
|
||||
message: "Here's your foo!",
|
||||
returnedAt: new Date(),
|
||||
}
|
||||
}) satisfies GetFoo
|
||||
```
|
||||
From the snippet above, TypeScript knows:
|
||||
1. The correct type for `context`.
|
||||
2. The Action's return type is `{ newFoo: Foo, message: string, returnedAt: Date }`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't need the context, you can skip specifying the Action's type (and arguments):
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const createFoo = () => {{ name: 'Foo', date: new Date() }}
|
||||
```
|

Wasp automatically generates the types `GetAllTasks` and `GetFilteredTasks` based on your Wasp file's declarations:
|
||||
|
||||
- `GetAllTasks` is a generic type automatically generated by Wasp, based on the Query declaration for `getAllTasks`.

You can utilize these types to define the input and output types for your Query.
|
||||
Use these types to type the Query's implementation.
|
||||
It's optional but very helpful since doing so properly types the Query's context.
|
||||

For example, the Query `getAllTasks` doesn't expect any arguments (its input type is `void`), but it does return a list of tasks (its output type is `Task[]`).
|

In this case, TypeScript will know the `context.entities` object must include the `Task` entity.
|
||||
TypeScript also knows whether the `context` object includes user information (it depends on whether your Query uses auth).
|

On the other hand, the Query `getFilteredTasks` expects an object of type `{ isDone: boolean }`. This type is derived from the `Task` type.

2. `Output` - The Query function's return type.
|
||||
|
||||
<SuperjsonNote />
|
||||
Use these type arguments to type the Query's inputs and outputs.
|
||||
|
||||
<details>
|
||||
<summary>Explanation for the example above</summary>
|
||||
|
||||
The above code says that the Query `getAllTasks` doesn't expect any arguments (its input type is `void`), but it does return a list of tasks (its output type is `Task[]`).
|
||||
|
||||
On the other hand, the Query `getFilteredTasks` expects an object of type `{ isDone: boolean }`. This type is derived from the `Task` entity type.
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't care about typing the Query's inputs and outputs, you can omit both type arguments. TypeScript will then infer the most general types (`never` for the input and `unknown` for the output).
|
||||
|
||||
Specifying `Input` or `Output` is completely optional, but we highly recommended it. Doing so gives you:
|
||||
|
||||
- Type support for the arguments and the return value inside the implementation.
|
||||
- **Full-stack type safety**. We'll explore what this means when we discuss calling the Query from the client.
|
||||
|
||||
</details>
|
||||
|
||||
Read more about type support for implementing Queries in the [API Reference](#implementing-queries).
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip Inferring the return type
|
||||
|
||||
If don't want to explicitly type the Query's return value, the `satisfies` keyword tells TypeScript to infer it automatically:
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const getFoo = (async (_args, context) => {
|
||||
const foos = await context.entities.Foo.findMany()
|
||||
return {
|
||||
foos,
|
||||
message: 'Here are some foos!',
|
||||
queriedAt: new Date(),
|
||||
}
|
||||
}) satisfies GetFoo
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
From the snippet above, TypeScript knows:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The correct type for `context`.
|
||||
2. The Query's return type is `{ foos: Foo[], message: string, queriedAt: Date }`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't need the context, you can skip specifying the Query's type (and arguments):
|
||||
|
||||
```typescript
|
||||
const getFoo = () => {{ name: 'Foo', date: new Date() }}
|
||||
```

# TypeScript support
|
||||
|
||||
TypeScript is a programming language that adds static type analysis to JavaScript.
|
||||
It is a superset of JavaScript, which means all JavaScript code is valid TypeScript code.
|
||||
It also compiles to JavaScript before running.
|
||||
|
||||
TypeScript's type system helps catch errors at build time (this reduces runtime errors), and provides type-based auto-completion in IDEs.
|
||||
|
||||
Each Wasp feature includes TypeScript documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
If you're starting a new project and want to use TypeScript, you don't need to do anything special.
|
||||
Just follow the feature docs you are interested in, and they will tell you everything you need to know.
|
||||
We recommend you start by going through [the tutorial](../tutorial/01-create.md).
|
||||
|
||||
To migrate an existing Wasp project from JavaScript to TypeScript, follow this guide.
|
||||
|
||||
## Migrating your project to TypeScript
|
||||
|
||||
Since Wasp ships with out-of-the-box TypeScript support, migrating your project is as simple as changing file extensions and using the language.
|
||||
This approach allows you to gradually migrate your project on a file-by-file basis.
|
||||
|
||||
We will first show you how to migrate a single file and then help you generalize the procedure to the rest of your project.
|
||||
|
||||
### Migrating a single file
|
||||
|
||||
Assuming your `schema.prisma` file defines the `Task` entity:
|
||||
|
||||
```prisma title="schema.prisma"
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
|
||||
model Task {
|
||||
id Int @id @default(autoincrement())
|
||||
description String
|
||||
isDone Boolean
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And your `main.wasp` file defines the `getTaskInfo` query:
|
||||
|
||||
```wasp title=main.wasp
|
||||
query getTaskInfo {
|
||||
fn: import { getTaskInfo } from "@src/queries",
|
||||
entities: [Task]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
We will show you how to migrate the following `queries.js` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript title="src/queries.js"
|
||||
import HttpError from 'wasp/server'
|
||||
|
||||
function getInfoMessage(task) {
|
||||
const isDoneText = task.isDone ? 'is done' : 'is not done'
|
||||
return `Task '${task.description}' is ${isDoneText}.`
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
export const getTaskInfo = async ({ id }, context) => {
|
||||
const Task = context.entities.Task
|
||||
const task = await Task.findUnique({ where: { id } })
|
||||
if (!task) {
|
||||
throw new HttpError(404)
|
||||
}
|
||||
return getInfoMessage(task)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To migrate this file to TypeScript, all you have to do is:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Change the filename from `queries.js` to `queries.ts`.
|
||||
2. Write some types (and optionally use some of Wasp's TypeScript features).

|

|

Your code is now processed by TypeScript and uses several of Wasp's TypeScript-specific features:
|
||||
|
||||
- `Task` - A type that represents the `Task` entity. Using this type connects your data to the model definitions in the `schema.prisma` file. Read more about this feature [here](../data-model/entities).
|
||||
- `GetTaskInfo<...>` - A generic type Wasp automatically generates to give you type
|
||||
support when implementing the Query. Thanks to this type, the compiler knows:
|
||||
|
||||
- The type of the `context` object.
|
||||
- The type of `args`.
|
||||
- The Query's return type.
|
||||
|
||||
And gives you Intellisense and type-checking. Read more about this feature [here](../data-model/operations/queries#implementing-queries).
|
||||
|
||||
You don't need to change anything inside the `.wasp` file.
|
||||
|
||||
### Migrating the rest of the project
|
||||
|
||||
You can migrate your project gradually - on a file-by-file basis.
|
||||
|
||||
When you want to migrate a file, follow the procedure outlined above:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Change the file's extension.
|
||||
2. Fix the type errors.
|
||||
3. Read the Wasp docs and decide which TypeScript features you want to use.
