πŸ› οΈ Monorepo template

A template that provides a straightforward and flexible way to use the benefits of tRPC in your React projects. It emphasizes the use of absolute paths and a monorepo approach that significantly improves the developer experience. If you're looking for a clean setup with pure React and modularization, this template is an excellent place to start!

πŸš€ Quick start

Preview the deployment: https://react-vite-trpc.onrender.com

For local execution, use pnpm install and pnpm dev.

Customization & tips:

  • To tailor the template to your needs, replace of @react-vite-trpc with @your-idea (you can use CMD + SHIFT + H in VS Code to do this globally)

  • When deploying, make sure to update the host property in the HttpService class (@react-vite-trpc\config\src\services\httpService.ts)

  • Adjust the preferred order of imports in .prettierrc files using the importOrder property

  • When adding a new local package (i.e. /@react-vite-trpc/new-package), remember to update the watch array in nodemon.json and provide appropriate TypeScript references in tsconfig.json files for an enhanced DX

  • The test coverage .lcov files (generated with pnpm test:coverage), can be easily leveraged with VS Code extension Coverage Gutters

🧩 The challenge

This setup faced a challenge while importing the AppRouter from the server folder to the client folder, which resulted in Typescript server errors related to imports from the 'trpc' path on the server side.

The solution leverages Typescript references to allow importing the AppRouter on the client side while using absolute paths on the server side.

// apps/web/tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": "src",
    "outDir": "dist",
  },
  "references": [{ "path": "../server" }] <~ fixes the /server references on the /web
}

// apps/web/package.json
{
  "scripts": {
    "ts:check": "tsc -b", <~ the -b flag is crucial when building an app that has references in its tsconfig.json
    "build": "pnpm ts:check && vite build"
  }
}

// apps/server/tsconfig.json
{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": "src",
    "outDir": "dist", <~ required, sets the build destination folder
    "composite": true <~ required to make TS references work
  },
  "ts-node": { "swc": true }
}

πŸ”’ Envs

Envs are validated with the package envalid. Check out .env-example & .env.test-example files

If the pnpm dev script is executed without the required environment variables, the application will output similar details in the console:

================================
Missing environment variables:
PORT: Port the Express server is running on (eg. "3001"). See https://expressjs.com/en/starter/hello-world.html
================================

🌐 Ports
