convex-functions

Convex queries fetch data, mutations modify database state, and actions handle external integrations or scheduled tasks. This Skill guides you through implementing each function type with strict argument validation and error handling.

You validate arguments in Convex functions using the convex/values library for strict type checking. This Skill demonstrates how to implement robust validation alongside ConvexError for clear error reporting and secure backend logic.

Yes, you can implement HTTP actions to expose Convex functions as HTTP endpoints. This Skill covers creating HTTP actions to handle external requests, enabling integrations like real-time chat notifications or webhook processing.

You handle errors in Convex mutations and actions by throwing ConvexError instances for clear runtime reporting. This Skill explains best practices for error handling and code quality across all backend function types.

Convex supports scheduled tasks and internal functions for secure backend logic implementation. This Skill details how to develop internal functions and manage scheduled tasks efficiently within the Convex framework.

The best way to structure a real-time backend with Convex is combining mutations for data insertion, queries for fetching history, and actions for external services. This Skill provides best practices for runtime considerations and robust operations.
