`createCaller` and RSC - with next-auth

I've been upgrading my trpc routers and handlers to support edge+app router with drizzle and next-auth; and something that has come up is the use of createCaller (with createTRPCNext instead of createTRPCReact - and without the TRPCProvider). So I wanted to ask if this is a correct way of using that function

// app/_trpc/server-client.tsx
import { type Session } from "next-auth";
import { appRouter } from "~/server/api/root";

export const serverClient = ({ session }: { session: Session | null }) => {
  return appRouter.createCaller({ session });
};

// app/_trpc/server-client.tsx
import { type Session } from "next-auth";
import { appRouter } from "~/server/api/root";

export const serverClient = ({ session }: { session: Session | null }) => {
  return appRouter.createCaller({ session });
};

so with that I'm using it in RSC pages like this

import { getServerSession } from "next-auth";
import { authOptions } from "~/server/auth";
import { serverClient } from "./_trpc/server-client";

export default async function LandingPage() {
  const session = await getServerSession(authOptions);
  const data = await serverClient({ session }).example.allUsers();

  return (
    <section>
      <h1>Landing Page</h1>

      <pre>{JSON.stringify(data)}</pre>
    </section>
  );
}

import { getServerSession } from "next-auth";
import { authOptions } from "~/server/auth";
import { serverClient } from "./_trpc/server-client";

export default async function LandingPage() {
  const session = await getServerSession(authOptions);
  const data = await serverClient({ session }).example.allUsers();

  return (
    <section>
      <h1>Landing Page</h1>

      <pre>{JSON.stringify(data)}</pre>
    </section>
  );
}

I'm wondering if returning/creating the caller on every RSC is a good practice, because I read that it's possible that it may execute all middlewares and validations again

It only executes the middlewares on the route you call

Liltripple_reid•11mo ago

so it's safe to use like this, right?

Yes
