I think there is still a strong argument to use React Query if you’re using queries from a variety of sources and/or complex filters that create dependencies. Lots of enterprise apps that I’ve worked on pull data from different sources (APIs, MSSQL, other relational databases etc) and consolidate on the client view. Including filters etc from global state in query keys (which operate as dependency arrays for a given query function) is an elegant pattern that just works.
It's obviously too much ; you would rather use webhooks or other types of subscriptions to handle this. Probably not the best example, but hey, its just an example.
Within Nextjs you can still pass const revalidate = 3600 at the top of your page or if you are using fetch youn use { next: { revalidate: 3600 } } to revalidate the cache on timelines. I'm still not able to figure out use case of React Query in Nextjs
This will only work if the endpoint is public. If your fetch uses some sort of authorization (for example passing a cookie for authentication), then you are automatically opt-out. Another (arguably smaller) advantage is being able to cache locally. NextJS won't cache during development, so if your call takes long it can be annoying to work on.
@@rgsquintanilha What about using the fetch options, how does it compare? And, if you deploy on some other platform than Vercel, what changes? fetch('...', { next: { revalidate: 3600 } })
Hey Ed great video! I have one question if I got it right. You mentioned (7:20) that you wanna keep Posts component Server Rendered for the SEO reasons. However later on, you transformed the Posts component into the client one. Then the assumption to have it SEO ready is not valid anymore, right? Thanks!
The hydrate boundary that we added to it's parent is doing all the magic, from what I've understood, this hydration technique by react-query helps in prefetching the data on the server just like server components
Hi @developedbyed, from 5:50 you created a useQuery provider & useGetPosts custom hook, why in Home at 8:03 do you need to recreate a queryClient and a query without what you've created before?
They are two different queryclients. in 5:50 the queryclient he created is a global 'provider' that enables you to use react query in all of your client components. In 8:03 he is making a queryClient for that server component. Because you need to make a new queryclient for each server component. Read the docs, under advanced server rendering.
You are using a new QueryClient on the server side without option staleTime (7:50). When I do that, it makes an API request every time without SSR caching. If I add staleTime Infinity, caching starts working, but updates from the client component revalidatePath or revalidateTag are not being executed. Help
@@lucasmaia7553 I tried various ways to do this with React Query, but nothing worked. I came up with a method of loading data on the server side using native fetch. Then, I forcefully store the result in prefetchQuery. It looks like this: const result = fetch(); await queryClient.prefetchQuery({queryFn: () => result}). Now everything works as I want, but I have to maintain duplicate requests.
Hey Ed, thanks for the video. I have a question about this approach. You had an another video on your channel about react-query combo with nextjs14, I tried same methods on my project but when I fetch data just using server actions I can view all the html content by checking page source. But If I use hydration boundary with prefetch query, I dont see any content on the page source
Ohh that’s interesting, will definitely have a look into it. Their docs say using initial data and hydration boundary give you ssr, ill get back to you 👍
I'm guessing when you set your page component as client side component there's no way it's hydrated on the server side. You should probably keep your page component as server side, and call the action directly for initial server-side hydration. Then, create a client side wrapper around server component that utilises useQuery hook and pass the returned data to server component as prop as you'd normally do with getServerSideProps.
I have the same exact issue after setting up custom hooks of the tanstack query that fetches data from the client side... the data is shown but the page source does not update
Deved I love you and your work.. Here is a little motivation Keep going always no matter what. Somewhere in a small village of a small town in the state of Kashmir a boy is waiting for ur video
This is brilliant! I do wonder how to revalidate when something needs to get updated in my nav bar, which is a part of my layout and not a part of a specific route/page, where I'm mutating from.

How would you implement prefetch and tanstack table?
Hi, I just want to thank you for opening my eyes. I was thinking of either using the next-safe-action or the react hook form, not realising that i can just use them together to make a killer combo. I just have one question, if we are handling data cache using tanstack query, wouldn't we need to invalidate the cache when creating something new using something like invalidateQueries after being successful? Is it handled by the revalidatePath used in the action? Does it work because it removes the client side router cache and full route cache and so the query runs again on the server because the client makes a new request with the cleared cache?
I'm the creator of next-safe-action and I always used it with react-hook-form, I think it's an amazing combo. Very glad that now Ed is teaching this approach to the world!
when i do this in two routes there is an issue. When i leave the tab for a while then come back and then navigate back and forth to the two routes, it refetches the data again. (even if i set gctime and staletime to infinity and give refetchonwindowfocus:false on both queryclients)
How would I go about fetching posts that belong to a specific tenant ? I have a Supabase table for all my posts, but it's a multi tenant multi user app. One thing I'm struggling to get my head around with a drizzle query is getting all the posts that belong to the logged in users tenant ? Supabase doesn't have a field in the auth schema to put tenantID so I assign it in the public.users.tenant_id How do I get the logged in users tenant _id before I make the query ? I'm guessing it's going to come down to using RLS and just making a general query but I'd like to do it programmatically so I can address any bugs or issues from one control source. Love your videos, I'm a hobbyist and you've helped with heaps of niche situations I've come across.
Why not use revalidate in NextJs instead of ReactQuery? I watched your video through to the finish, but I'm not sure why you do it. Will you kindly respond to me?
If are calling server action in a server component than there is no need for next-safe action right ? I don't know maybe it sound a bit dump question but I'm still learning
I started watching your videos 5 years ago when i was first learning web development and I stumbled on your stuff again and I am so happy you are still making videos!! still as helpful as ever. thanks for the high energy and humor
@developedbyed Hello, i am having issue, that if queryFn is arrow function, i am getting error on client - Error: Maximum call stack size exceeded. But once i remove arrow, it works as your example.. But i need to pass properties to that function so it must be arrow function.. Any ideas ?
What about Next.js data caching layer which persists the result of data fetches across incoming server requests and deployments?? React Query could fetch the data on server but what about caching it across the server request? It's surely a solution in one scenario and providing caching solution for single user only.
Thanks very much for the video. I wonder if server actions works with react native programs ? Or I still need to use API ? Also what network protocols does the server action use ? Would it be possible to route through firewalls ? Thanks again.
I love your personality! Thank you for making helpful videos It's helping me a lot when I'm stuck in a company where I can't learn from the senior devs in my team, so I'm looking it up on youtube
Thanks to You, I was able to fix an error in my code: useQuery's queryFn needs to be on the server side, otherwise it will throw an error: Invariant: headers() expects to have requestAsyncStorage, none available. I think it's not documented well, or it's just Next.js things...
you don't need to do any of that, you can just export next.js revalidate constent and set it to some posivite value for the page, and then wrap all the database query logic inside a react cache, now the cache will be revalidated as you set.
I believe you don’t have to put “use server” on the top since the base is server. If you wanna make sure it only runs on server, you import “server-only”
Hi, great video. Sadly I have this error and I can't get rid of it... Internal error: TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'useContext') This is when I use the prefetch and HydrationBoundary I think it is only in development but still, if anyone has any ideas. Thanks
I guess, it has a really bad design when user wrap it client component with hydration boundary and passing dehydrate function. It should be simple and clean, in my opinion
@@trebturnerif using Next, I would create a refresh component with the time I want. It will use UseRouter from next/nav and do router.Refresh(). Obv you would need to disable caching with giving headers to the Get req or revalidate = 0.
Amazing content as always. One thing that I got sad about is, I downloaded your project and I realized that the data comes to the client side with requests so the functions apparently are not dispatch on the server side but indeed on the client side, so in theory you won’t need any of this right?
