SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires @orpc/server, @orpc/client, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill serves as a comprehensive guide for setting up and understanding the OpenAPI Remote Procedure Call (oRPC) for efficient API definition and consumption, particularly within TypeScript/JavaScript projects.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Type-safe Definition: Provides guidelines on how to define and structure API procedures in a type-safe manner using OpenAPI specifications.
  • Procedure Implementation: Shows best practices for error handling, integration with different frameworks, and deployment on various platforms like Node.js.
  • Real-World Example: Helps you get started by giving step-by-step instructions to install the necessary dependencies and setting up an example server and client for communication.

Quick Start

Execute 'npm install @orpc/server@latest @orpc/client@latest' to set up an oRPC project on your local machine and refer to the 'defineAppRouter.ts' script to begin your server-side implementation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I define type-safe API procedures using oRPC in TypeScript?▼

To define type-safe API procedures using oRPC, you define and structure your server-side app router using TypeScript, ensuring structured and reliable API contracts. The 'defineAppRouter.ts' script provides the starting implementation.

Can I use oRPC to generate OpenAPI-conforming APIs for Node.js?▼

Yes, you can use oRPC to automate server-client procedures with the capability of working in OpenAPI-conforming projects. It supports various runtime environments, particularly Node.js deployments.

What is the best way to set up a type-safe remote procedure call client and server?▼

The best way to set up a type-safe remote procedure call system is installing @orpc/server and @orpc/client via npm. This provides the necessary dependencies to establish structured communication between your example server and client.

Does oRPC support integration with different frameworks for error handling?▼

Yes, oRPC supports integration with different frameworks and provides best practices for error handling. This ensures reliable procedure implementation across various deployment platforms and runtime environments.

Why should I use a type-safe RPC method instead of standard API definitions?▼

A type-safe RPC method ensures structured and reliable APIs by enforcing TypeScript support across server-client communication. This prevents runtime type errors and automates procedure consumption safely within OpenAPI-conforming projects.
