This lets us pass a writable on the server side and readable on the
client side to send debug info through a separate channel so that it
doesn't interfere with the main payload as much. The main payload refers
to chunks defined in the debug info which means it's still blocked on it
though. This ensures that the debug data has loaded by the time the
value is rendered so that the next step can forward the data.
This will be a bit fragile to race conditions until #33665 lands.
Another follow up needed is the ability to skip the debug channel on the
receiving side. Right now it'll block forever if you don't provide one
since we're blocking on the debug data.
This adds plumbing for opening a stream from the Flight Client to the
Flight Server so it can ask for more data on-demand. In this mode, the
Flight Server keeps the connection open as long as the client is still
alive and there's more objects to load. It retains any depth limited
objects so that they can be asked for later. In this first PR it just
releases the object when it's discovered on the server and doesn't
actually lazy load it yet. That's coming in a follow up.
This strategy is built on the model that each request has its own
channel for this. Instead of some global registry. That ensures that
referential identity is preserved within a Request and the Request can
refer to previously written objects by reference.
The fixture implements a WebSocket per request but it doesn't have to be
done that way. It can be multiplexed through an existing WebSocket for
example. The current protocol is just a Readable(Stream) on the server
and WritableStream on the client. It could even be sent through a HTTP
request body if browsers implemented full duplex (which they don't).
This PR only implements the direction of messages from Client to Server.
However, I also plan on adding Debug Channel in the other direction to
allow debug info (optionally) be sent from Server to Client through this
channel instead of through the main RSC request. So the `debugChannel`
option will be able to take writable or readable or both.

Reverts #33457, #33456 and #33442.
There are too many issues with wrappers, lazy init, stateful modules,
duplicate instantiation of async_hooks and duplication of code.
Instead, we'll just do a wrapper polyfill that uses Node Streams
internally.
I kept the client indirection files that I added for consistency with
the server though.
Follow up to #33442. This is the bundled version.
To keep type check passes from exploding and the maintainance of the
annoying `paths: []` list small, this doesn't add this to flow type
checks. We might miss some config but every combination should already
be covered by other one passes.
I also don't add any jest tests because to test these double export
entry points we need conditional importing to cover builds and
non-builds which turns out to be difficult for the Flight builds so
these aren't covered by any basic build tests.
This approach is what I'm going for, for the other bundlers too.
We support streaming `multipart/form-data` in Node.js using Busboy since
that's kind of the idiomatic ecosystem way for handling these stream
there. There's not really anything idiomatic like that for Edge that's
universal yet.
This adds a version that's basically just
`AsyncIterable.from(formData)`. It could also be a `ReadableStream` of
those entries since those are also `AsyncIterable`.
I imagine that in the future we might add one from a binary
`ReadableStream` that does the parsing built-in.
Follow up to #31725.
I diffed against the Turbopack one to find any unexpected discrepancies.
Some parts are forked enough that it's hard to diff but I think I got
most of it.
We added an experimental `prerender` API to flight. This change exposes
this API in stable channels prefixed as `unstable_prerender`. We have
high confidence this API should exist but because we have not yet
settled on how to handle resuming/replaying of RSC streams we may need
to change the API contract to suit future needs. This release will allow
us to get more usage out of the existing implemented functionality
without requiring you to use experimental builds which will open up
greater adoption and opportunity for feedback.
the `prerender` implementation is documented in the `react-server`
package. As with all RSC APIs implemented in bundler specific binding
packages these aren't intended to be called by end users but instead be
used by frameworks implementing React Server Components.
Previously `prerender` was exposed unprefixed and only in the
experimental channel. This PR renames the export across all channels to
`unstable_prerender` so users of this previously unprefixed api will
need to update to the unstable form. This isn't a breaking change
because it was only exposed in the experimental channel which does not
follow semver. The reason we don't expose it under both names is that
users may feature detect the unprefixed form and then when we finally do
ship it as unprefixed we may change the function signature and break
this code. Changing the name now is much safer.
In #26624, the ability to mark a client reference module as `async` in
the React client manifest was removed because it was not utilized by
Webpack, neither in `ReactFlightWebpackPlugin` nor in Next.js. However,
some bundlers and frameworks are sophisticated enough to properly handle
and identify async ESM modules (e.g., client component modules with
top-level `await`), most notably Turbopack in Next.js. Therefore, we
need to consider the `async` flag in the client manifest when resolving
the client reference metadata on the server. The SSR manifest cannot
override this flag, meaning that if a module is async, it must remain
async in all client environments.

We've refined the model of halting a prerender. Now when you abort
during a prerender we simply omit the rows that would complete the
flight render. This is analagous to prerendering in Fizz where you must
resume the prerender to actually result in errors propagating in the
postponed holes. We don't have a resume yet for flight and it's not
entirely clear how that will work however the key insight here is that
deciding whether the never resolving rows are an error or not should
really be done on the consuming side rather than in the producer.
This PR also reintroduces the logs for the abort error/postpone when
prerendering which will give you some indication that something wasn't
finished when the prerender was aborted.
This uses a similar technique to what we use to generate fake stack
frames for server components. This generates an eval:ed wrapper function
around the Server Reference proxy we create on the client. This wrapper
function gets the original `name` of the action on the server and I also
add a source map if `findSourceMapURL` is defined that points back to
the source of the server function.
For `"use server"` on the server, there's no new API. It just uses the
callsite of `registerServerReference()` on the Server. We can infer the
function name from the actual function on the server and we already have
the `findSourceMapURL` on the client receiving it.
For `"use server"` imported from the client, there's two new options
added to `createServerReference()` (in addition to the optional
[`encodeFormAction`](#27563)). These are only used in DEV mode. The
[`findSourceMapURL`](#29708) option is the same one added in #29708. We
need to pass this these references aren't created in the context of any
specific request but globally. The other weird thing about this case is
that this is actually a case where the compiled environment is the
client so any source maps are the same as for the client layer, so the
environment name here is just `"Client"`.
```diff
createServerReference(
id: string,
callServer: CallServerCallback,
encodeFormAction?: EncodeFormActionCallback,
+ findSourceMapURL?: FindSourceMapURLCallback, // DEV-only
+ functionName?: string, // DEV-only
)
```
The key is that we use the location of the
`registerServerReference()`/`createServerReference()` call as the
location of the function. A compiler can either emit those at the same
locations as the original functions or use source maps to have those
segments refer to the original location of the function (or in the case
of a re-export the original location of the re-export is also a fine
approximate). The compiled output must call these directly without a
wrapper function because the wrapper adds a stack frame. I decided
against complicated and fragile dev-only options to skip n number of
frames that would just end up in prod code. The implementation just
skips one frame - our own. Otherwise it'll just point all source mapping
to the wrapper.
We don't have a `"use server"` imported from the client implementation
in the reference implementation/fixture so it's a bit tricky to test
that. In the case of CJS on the server, we just use a runtime instead of
compiler so it's tricky to source map those appropriately. We can
implement it for ESM on the server which is the main thing we're testing
in the fixture. It's easier in a real implementation where all the
compilation is just one pass. It's a little tricky since we have to
parse and append to other source maps but I'd like to do that as a
follow up. Or maybe that's just an exercise for the reader.

enableHalt turns on a mode for flight prerenders where aborts are
treated like infinitely stalled outcomes while still completing the
prerender. For regular tasks we simply serialize the slot as a promise
that never settles. For ReadableStream, Blob, and Async Iterators we
just never advance the serialization so they remain unfinished when
consumed on the client.
When enableHalt is turned on aborts of prerenders will halt rather than
error. The abort reason is forwarded to the upstream produces of the
aforementioned async iterators, blobs, and ReadableStreams. In the
future if we expose a signal that you can consume from within a render
to cancel additional work the abort reason will also be forwarded there
Prerendering in flight is similar to prerendering in Fizz. Instead of
receiving a result (the stream) immediately a promise is returned which
resolves to the stream when the prerender is complete. The promise will
reject if the flight render fatally errors otherwise it will resolve
when the render is completed or is aborted.
This commit updates the file locations and bulid configurations for
flight in preparation for new static entrypoints. This follows a
structure similar to Fizz which has a unified build but exports methods
from different top level entrypoints. This PR doesn't actually add the
new top level entrypoints however, that will arrive in a later update.
