Composing EdgeDB Queries w/ RSC

Demo

If you want to run locally, jump to Running Locally

The goal of this demo is to show Relay-esque style data requirements with a composable query language like EdgeDB.

EdgeDB brings a new level of composability to database querying. If you haven't looked into EdgeDB, I recommend reading the quickstart here.

Here's a few code snippets of the composability you can achieve w/ RSCs, bubbling up data requirements of your component tree to the root of your page.

Consider the following EdgeDB Schema

module default {
    type User {
        required name: str;
        required age: int32;

        multi link posts := .<author[is Post];
        multi link comments := .<author[is Comment];
    }

    type Post {
        required title: str;
        required content: str;
        required published: bool;

        required property created_at -> datetime {
            # Set the default value to the current timestamp
            default := datetime_current();
        }

        required author: User;

        multi link comments := .<parentPost[is Comment];
    }

    type Comment {
        required text: str;

        required property created_at -> datetime {
            # Set the default value to the current timestamp
            default := datetime_current();
        }

        parentPost: Post;
        parentComment: Comment;

        required author: User;

        multi link replies := .<parentComment[is Comment];
    }
}
// page.tsx

export default async function Home() {
  /**
   * This is a fully type safe query fetching all posts from EdgeDB
   *
   * The `...PostCardFragment` bit is a way to tell the query
   * "Please include all of the selections made by the PostCardFragment"
   *
   * You'll see that fragment definition shortly below this code snippet
   *
   * The `@defer` tells the compiler, please split this into a separate query
   * as not to block the initial page load's response time on this fragment's data.
   */
  const { posts } = await edgeql(`
    query PostQuery {
        posts: Post {
          id
          ...PostCardFragment @defer
        }

`).run(client, {});

              </Suspense>
            </li>
          );
        })}
      </ul>
