Composables

It is often useful to wrap functionality of your @trpc/client api within other functions. For this purpose, it's necessary to be able to infer input types and output types generated by your @trpc/server router.

Inference Helpers

@trpc/server exports the following helper types to assist with inferring these types from the AppRouter exported by your @trpc/server router:

• inferRouterInputs<TRouter>
• inferRouterOutputs<TRouter>

Let's assume we have this example query wrapped within Nuxt's useAsyncData:

const { data, error } = await useAsyncData(() => $client.todo.getTodos.query())

We can wrap this in a composable and also set the client error types:

import { TRPCClientError } from '@trpc/client'import type { inferRouterOutputs } from '@trpc/server'import type { AppRouter } from '@/server/trpc/routers'type RouterOutput = inferRouterOutputs<AppRouter>type GetTodosOutput = RouterOutput['todo']['getTodos']type ErrorOutput = TRPCClientError<AppRouter>export default function useGetTodos() {  const { $client } = useNuxtApp()  return useAsyncData<GetTodosOutput, ErrorOutput>(() => $client.todo.getTodos.query())}

Now, we have a fully-typed composable.
