### Project Specific Structure

## Rules

Follow these rules when building the project.

### General Rules

- Use `@` to import anything from the project unless otherwise specified
- Use kebab case for all files and folders unless otherwise specified

#### Env Rules

- If you update environment variables, update the `.env.example` file
- All environment variables should go in `.env.local`
- Do not expose environment variables to the frontend
- Use `NEXT_PUBLIC_` prefix for environment variables that need to be accessed from the frontend
- You may import environment variables in server actions and components by using `process.env.VARIABLE_NAME`

#### Type Rules

Follow these rules when working with types.

- When importing types, use `@/types`
- Name files like `example-types.ts`
- All types should go in `types`
- Make sure to export the types in `types/index.ts`
- Prefer interfaces over type aliases
- If referring to db types, use `@/db/schema` such as `SelectTodo` from `todos-schema.ts`

An example of a type:

`types/actions-types.ts`

```ts
export type ActionState<T> = {
  isSuccess: boolean
  message: string
  data?: T
}
```

And exporting it:

`types/index.ts`

```ts
export * from "./actions-types"
```

### Frontend Rules

Follow these rules when working on the frontend.

It uses Next.js, Tailwind, Shadcn, and Framer Motion.

#### General Rules

- Use `lucide-react` for icons

#### Components

- Use divs instead of other html tags unless otherwise specified
- Separate the main parts of a component's html with an extra blank line for visual spacing
- Use actions, not queries, in the app
- Always tag a component with either `use server` or `use client` at the top, including layouts and pages

##### Organization

- All components be named using kebab case like `example-component.tsx` unless otherwise specified
- Put components in `/_components` in the route if one-off components
- Put components in `/components` from the root if shared components

##### Data Fetching

- Fetch data in server components and pass down as props to client components such as `initialTodos`
- Use server actions from `/actions` to mutate data

##### Server Components

- Use `"use server"` at the top of the file
- Implement Suspense for asynchronous data fetching
- Use a separate fetcher component for data loading (see example below)
- Make sure to use `async` for all pages and components if they are server components

Example of a server page:

```tsx
"use server"

import { Suspense } from "react"
import { SomeAction } from "@/actions/some-actions"
import SomeComponent from "./_components/some-component"
import SomeSkeleton from "./_components/some-skeleton"

export default async function ExampleServerPage({
  params
}: {
  params: { id: string }
}) {
  return (
    <Suspense fallback={<SomeSkeleton className="some-class" />}>
      <SomeComponentFetcher id={params.id} />
    </Suspense>
  )
}

async function SomeComponentFetcher({ id }: { id: string }) {
  const { data } = await SomeAction(id)

  return (
    <SomeComponent className="some-class" initialData={data || []} id={id} />
  )
}
```

Example of a server component:

```tsx
"use server"

interface ExampleServerComponentProps {
  // Your props here
}

export async function ExampleServerComponent({
  props
}: ExampleServerComponentProps) {
  // Your code here
}
```

##### Client Components

- Use `"use client"` at the top of the file

Example of a client page:

```tsx
"use client"

export default function ExampleClientPage() {
  // Your code here
}
```

Example of a client component:

```tsx
"use client"

interface ExampleClientComponentProps {
  // Your props here
}

export default function ExampleClientComponent({
  props
}: ExampleClientComponentProps) {
  // Your code here
}
```

### Backend Rules

Follow these rules when working on the backend.

It uses Postgres, Supabase, Drizzle ORM, and Server Actions.

#### General Rules

- Never generate migrations. You do not have to do anything in the `db/migrations` folder inluding migrations and metadata. Ignore it.

#### Organization

#### Schemas

- When importing schemas, use `@/db/schema`
- Name files like `example-schema.ts`
- All schemas should go in `db/schema`
- Make sure to export the schema in `db/schema/index.ts`
- Make sure to add the schema to the `schema` object in `db/db.ts`
- If using a userId, always use `userId: text("user_id").notNull()`
- Always include createdAt and updatedAt columns in all tables
- Make sure to cascade delete when necessary
- Use enums for columns that have a limited set of possible values such as:

```ts
import { pgEnum } from "drizzle-orm/pg-core"

export const membershipEnum = pgEnum("membership", ["free", "pro"])

membership: membershipEnum("membership").notNull().default("free")
```

Example of a schema:

`db/schema/todos-schema.ts`

```ts
import { boolean, pgTable, text, timestamp, uuid } from "drizzle-orm/pg-core"

export const todosTable = pgTable("todos", {
  id: uuid("id").defaultRandom().primaryKey(),
  userId: text("user_id").notNull(),
  content: text("content").notNull(),
  completed: boolean("completed").default(false).notNull(),
  createdAt: timestamp("created_at").defaultNow().notNull(),
  updatedAt: timestamp("updated_at")
    .defaultNow()
    .notNull()
    .$onUpdate(() => new Date())
})

export type InsertTodo = typeof todosTable.$inferInsert
export type SelectTodo = typeof todosTable.$inferSelect
```

And exporting it:

`db/schema/index.ts`

```ts
export * from "./todos-schema"
```

And adding it to the schema in `db/db.ts`:

`db/db.ts`

```ts
import { todosTable } from "@/db/schema"

const schema = {
  todos: todosTable
}
```

And a more complex schema:

```ts
import { pgTable, text, timestamp, uuid } from "drizzle-orm/pg-core"

export const chatsTable = pgTable("chats", {
  id: uuid("id").defaultRandom().primaryKey(),
  userId: text("user_id").notNull(),
  name: text("name").notNull(),
  createdAt: timestamp("created_at").defaultNow().notNull(),
  updatedAt: timestamp("updated_at")
    .defaultNow()
    .notNull()
    .$onUpdate(() => new Date())
})

export type InsertChat = typeof chatsTable.$inferInsert
export type SelectChat = typeof chatsTable.$inferSelect
```

```ts
import { pgEnum, pgTable, text, timestamp, uuid } from "drizzle-orm/pg-core"
import { chatsTable } from "./chats-schema"

export const roleEnum = pgEnum("role", ["assistant", "user"])

export const messagesTable = pgTable("messages", {
  id: uuid("id").defaultRandom().primaryKey(),
  chatId: uuid("chat_id")
    .references(() => chatsTable.id, { onDelete: "cascade" })
    .notNull(),
  content: text("content").notNull(),
  role: roleEnum("role").notNull(),
  createdAt: timestamp("created_at").defaultNow().notNull(),
  updatedAt: timestamp("updated_at")
    .defaultNow()
    .notNull()
    .$onUpdate(() => new Date())
})

export type InsertMessage = typeof messagesTable.$inferInsert
export type SelectMessage = typeof messagesTable.$inferSelect
```

And exporting it:

`db/schema/index.ts`

```ts
export * from "./chats-schema"
export * from "./messages-schema"
```

And adding it to the schema in `db/db.ts`:

`db/db.ts`

```ts
import { chatsTable, messagesTable } from "@/db/schema"

const schema = {
  chats: chatsTable,
  messages: messagesTable
}
```

#### Queries

- When importing queries, use `@/db/queries`
- Name files like `example-queries.ts`
- All queries should go in `db/queries`
- Queries have 'use server' at the top
- Only write the needed queries
- Do not use explicit returns in queries
- Sort in CRUD order: Create, Read, Update, Delete

Example of a query:

`db/queries/todos-queries.ts`

```ts
"use server"

import { db } from "@/db/db"
import { InsertTodo, todosTable } from "@/db/schema"
import { eq } from "drizzle-orm"

export const createTodo = async (data: InsertTodo) => {
  try {
    const [newTodo] = await db.insert(todosTable).values(data).returning()
    return newTodo
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error creating todo:", error)
    throw new Error("Failed to create todo")
  }
}

export const getTodos = async (userId: string) => {
  try {
    return db.query.todos.findMany({
      where: eq(todosTable.userId, userId)
    })
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error getting todos:", error)
    throw new Error("Failed to get todos")
  }
}
```

#### Server Actions

- When importing actions, use `@/actions` or `@/actions/db` if db related
- DB related actions should go in the `actions/db` folder
- Other actions should go in the `actions` folder
- Name files like `example-actions.ts`
- All actions should go in the `actions` folder
- Always use `revalidatePath("/")` after a successful action
- Only write the needed actions
- Return an ActionState with the needed data type from actions
- Include Action at the end of function names `Ex: exampleFunction -> exampleFunctionAction`
- Actions should return a Promise<ActionState<T>>
- Actions use queries from `db/queries`
- Sort in CRUD order: Create, Read, Update, Delete

```ts
export type ActionState<T> = {
  isSuccess: boolean
  message: string
  data?: T
}
```

Example of an action:

`actions/db/todos-actions.ts`

```ts
"use server"

import { createTodo, getTodos } from "@/db/queries/todos-queries"
import { InsertTodo, SelectTodo } from "@/db/schema/todos-schema"
import { ActionState } from "@/types"
import { revalidatePath } from "next/cache"

export async function createTodoAction(
  todo: InsertTodo
): Promise<ActionState<SelectTodo>> {
  try {
    const newTodo = await createTodo(todo)
    revalidatePath("/")
    return {
      isSuccess: true,
      message: "Todo created successfully",
      data: newTodo
    }
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error creating todo:", error)
    return { isSuccess: false, message: "Failed to create todo" }
  }
}

export async function getTodosAction(
  userId: string
): Promise<ActionState<SelectTodo[]>> {
  try {
    const todos = await getTodos(userId)
    return {
      isSuccess: true,
      message: "Todos retrieved successfully",
      data: todos
    }
  } catch (error) {
    console.error("Error getting todos:", error)
    return { isSuccess: false, message: "Failed to get todos" }
  }
}
```

### Auth Rules

Follow these rules when working on auth.

It uses Clerk for authentication.

#### General Rules

- Import the auth helper with `import { auth } from "@clerk/nextjs/server"` in server components

### Payments Rules

Follow these rules when working on payments.

It uses Stripe for payments.
