getQueryKey

We provide a getQueryKey helper that accepts a router or procedure so that you can easily provide the native function the correct query key.

tsx
// Queries
function getQueryKey(
procedure: AnyQueryProcedure,
input?: DeepPartial<TInput>,
type?: QueryType; /** @default 'any' */
): TRPCQueryKey;
// Routers
function getQueryKey(
router: AnyRouter,
): TRPCQueryKey;
type QueryType = "query" | "infinite" | "any";
// for useQuery ──┘ │ │
// for useInfiniteQuery ────┘ │
// will match all ───────────────────────┘
tsx
// Queries
function getQueryKey(
procedure: AnyQueryProcedure,
input?: DeepPartial<TInput>,
type?: QueryType; /** @default 'any' */
): TRPCQueryKey;
// Routers
function getQueryKey(
router: AnyRouter,
): TRPCQueryKey;
type QueryType = "query" | "infinite" | "any";
// for useQuery ──┘ │ │
// for useInfiniteQuery ────┘ │
// will match all ───────────────────────┘
note

The query type any will match all queries in the cache only if the react query method where it's used uses fuzzy matching. See TanStack/query#5111 (comment) for more context.

tsx
import { useIsFetching, useQueryClient } from '@tanstack/react-query';
import { getQueryKey } from '@trpc/react-query';
import { trpc } from '~/utils/trpc';
function MyComponent() {
const queryClient = useQueryClient();
const posts = trpc.post.list.useQuery();
// See if a query is fetching
const postListKey = getQueryKey(trpc.post.list, undefined, 'query');
const isFetching = useIsFetching(postListKey);
// Set some query defaults for an entire router
const postKey = getQueryKey(trpc.post);
queryClient.setQueryDefaults(postKey, { staleTime: 30 * 60 * 1000 });
// ...
}

Mutations

Similarly to queries, we provide a getMutationKey for mutations. The underlying function is the same as getQueryKey (in fact, you could technically use getQueryKey for mutations as well), the only difference is in semantics.

tsx
function getMutationKey(procedure: AnyMutationProcedure): TRPCMutationKey;
tsx
function getMutationKey(procedure: AnyMutationProcedure): TRPCMutationKey;
