What problem does it solve?

Define and validate Convex database schemas to ensure typing, indexing, and safe migrations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Define and validate schemas with defineSchema and defineTable for strong data contracts.
  • Leverage validators, unions, optional fields, and discriminated types to model complex data.
  • Manage index configurations and migrations with clear upgrade paths for evolving schemas.

Quick Start

Create a convex/schema.ts file using defineSchema and defineTable, then export it as the default.

FAQPage Schema
How do I define and validate Convex database schemas with strong typing?

To define and validate Convex database schemas, create a convex/schema.ts file using defineSchema and defineTable, then export it as the default to establish strong data contracts and ensure type safety across your data models.

What's the best way to handle discriminated unions in Convex schemas?

Handling discriminated unions in Convex schemas involves leveraging advanced validators within your defineTable definitions to model complex data, ensuring that optional fields and union types are strictly validated against your data contracts.

How do I manage index configurations and migrations for evolving Convex schemas?

Managing index configurations and migrations for Convex schemas requires establishing clear upgrade paths within your schema definitions, ensuring controlled migrations and safe indexing as your database schema evolves over time.

Does this approach support complex data models with optional fields and strict validation?

Yes, this approach supports complex data models by leveraging advanced validators, optional fields, and discriminated types within your defineTable usage, ensuring strict validation and strong type safety for teams building Convex data models.

Why do I need schema validation for my Convex data models?

Schema validation for Convex data models is needed to ensure typing accuracy, proper indexing, and safe migrations, preventing data inconsistencies and enforcing strong data contracts when building applications with complex unions.

When should I not use manual schema definitions for Convex databases?

Manual schema definitions for Convex databases may be unnecessary if your application requires simple, rapidly changing data structures without the need for discriminated unions, strict typing, or controlled migration strategies.
