onServerDisconnectError
• Optional onServerDisconnectError: (message: string) => void
Type declaration
▸ (message): void
This API is experimental: it may change or disappear.
A function to call on receiving abnormal WebSocket close messages from the connected Convex deployment. The content of these messages is not stable, it is an implementation detail that may change.
Consider this API an observability stopgap until higher level codes with
recommendations on what to do are available, which could be a more stable
interface instead of string.
Check connectionState for more quantitative metrics about connection status.
Parameters
| Name | Type |
|---|---|
message | string |
Returns
void
Defined in
skipConvexDeploymentUrlCheck
• Optional skipConvexDeploymentUrlCheck: boolean
Skip validating that the Convex deployment URL looks like
https://happy-animal-123.convex.cloud or localhost.
This can be useful if running a self-hosted Convex backend that uses a different URL.
The default value is false
Defined in
authRefreshTokenLeewaySeconds
• Optional authRefreshTokenLeewaySeconds: number
If using auth, the number of seconds before a token expires that we should refresh it.
The default value is 2.
Defined in
expectAuth
• Optional expectAuth: boolean
This API is experimental: it may change or disappear.
Whether query, mutation, and action requests should be held back until the first auth token can be sent.
Opting into this behavior works well for pages that should only be viewed by authenticated clients.
Defaults to false, not waiting for an auth token.
