convex-functions

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps developers write Convex functions including queries, mutations, actions, and HTTP actions with proper argument validation and error handling.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Query functions: reactive, read-only access with caching for efficient data retrieval.
• Mutations: transactional write operations that modify the database.
• Actions: external integrations that can call queries and mutations and run business logic.
• HTTP Actions: handle webhooks and external HTTP requests within Convex workflows.
• Internal Functions: use internal functions for sensitive or restricted logic to protect data and enforce security.

Quick Start

Create a sample function file that exposes a query, a mutation, and an action using Convex's builders; ensure you define argument and return validators and export handlers that implement the business logic, then test via your Convex app's generated API.
