Dynamically generate url for httpBatchLink

Hey there 👋 is it possible to generate a url for httpBatchLink instead of hardcoding one? I attempted the below code, but this doesn't work. Understandably, the fallback value is used for url each time the component mounts. I believe that I wouldn't even need a useEffect if I wasn't using Next, as I could directly grab these values from window.location, but since I'm using SSR, this code doesn't make it through the SSR pass.

"use client";

import { QueryClient, QueryClientProvider } from "@tanstack/react-query";
import { httpBatchLink } from "@trpc/client";
import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import { trpc } from "@/utils/trpc";
import SuperJSON from "superjson";

export function TRPCQueryClientProvider({
  children,
}: {
  children: React.ReactNode;
}) {
  const [url, setUrl] = useState<string | null>(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    if (typeof window !== "undefined") {
      const { hostname, protocol, port } = window.location;
      setUrl(`${protocol}//${hostname}:${port}/api/trpc`);
    }
  }, []);

  const [queryClient] = useState(() => new QueryClient());
  const [trpcClient] = useState(() =>
    trpc.createClient({
      links: [
        httpBatchLink({
          url: url ?? "http://localhost:3000/api/trpc", // Fallback in case url is not ready,
          // url: "http://192.168.0.16:3000/api/trpc", // For mobile device testing
          transformer: SuperJSON,
        }),
      ],
    }),
  );
  return (
    <trpc.Provider client={trpcClient} queryClient={queryClient}>
      <QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>{children}</QueryClientProvider>
    </trpc.Provider>
  );
}

"use client";

import { QueryClient, QueryClientProvider } from "@tanstack/react-query";
import { httpBatchLink } from "@trpc/client";
import { useEffect, useState } from "react";
import { trpc } from "@/utils/trpc";
import SuperJSON from "superjson";

export function TRPCQueryClientProvider({
  children,
}: {
  children: React.ReactNode;
}) {
  const [url, setUrl] = useState<string | null>(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    if (typeof window !== "undefined") {
      const { hostname, protocol, port } = window.location;
      setUrl(`${protocol}//${hostname}:${port}/api/trpc`);
    }
  }, []);

  const [queryClient] = useState(() => new QueryClient());
  const [trpcClient] = useState(() =>
    trpc.createClient({
      links: [
        httpBatchLink({
          url: url ?? "http://localhost:3000/api/trpc", // Fallback in case url is not ready,
          // url: "http://192.168.0.16:3000/api/trpc", // For mobile device testing
          transformer: SuperJSON,
        }),
      ],
    }),
  );
  return (
    <trpc.Provider client={trpcClient} queryClient={queryClient}>
      <QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>{children}</QueryClientProvider>
    </trpc.Provider>
  );
}

Currently, this seems to work, however if it's likely that the fallback value would ever be used here as opposed to the return of getUrl()

  const getUrl = () => {
    if (typeof window !== "undefined") {
      const { hostname, protocol, port } = window.location;
      const url = `${protocol}//${hostname}:${port}/api/trpc`;
      return url;
    }
    return undefined;
  };

  const [queryClient] = useState(() => new QueryClient());
  const [trpcClient] = useState(() =>
    trpc.createClient({
      links: [
        httpBatchLink({
          url: getUrl() ?? "http://localhost:3000/api/trpc",
          // url: "http://192.168.0.16:3000/api/trpc", // For mobile device testing
          // You can pass any HTTP headers you wish here
          // async headers() {
          //   return {};
          // },
          transformer: SuperJSON,
        }),
      ],
    }),
  );

  const getUrl = () => {
    if (typeof window !== "undefined") {
      const { hostname, protocol, port } = window.location;
      const url = `${protocol}//${hostname}:${port}/api/trpc`;
      return url;
    }
    return undefined;
  };

  const [queryClient] = useState(() => new QueryClient());
  const [trpcClient] = useState(() =>
    trpc.createClient({
      links: [
        httpBatchLink({
          url: getUrl() ?? "http://localhost:3000/api/trpc",
          // url: "http://192.168.0.16:3000/api/trpc", // For mobile device testing
          // You can pass any HTTP headers you wish here
          // async headers() {
          //   return {};
          // },
          transformer: SuperJSON,
        }),
      ],
    }),
  );
