Allow aborting encoding arguments to a Server Action if a Promise
doesn't resolve. That way at least part of the arguments can be used on
the receiving side. This leaves it unresolved in the stream rather than
encoding an error.
This should error on the receiving side when the stream closes but it
doesn't right now in the Edge/Browser versions because closing happens
immediately before we've had a chance to call `.then()` so the Chunks
are still in pending state. This is an existing bug also in
FlightClient.
While most builds of Flight and Fizz schedule work in new tasks some do
execute work synchronously. While this is necessary for legacy APIs like
renderToString for modern APIs there really isn't a great reason to do
this synchronously.
We could schedule works as microtasks but we actually want to yield so
the runtime can run events and other things that will unblock additional
work before starting the next work loop.
This change updates all non-legacy uses to be async using the best
availalble macrotask scheduler.
Browser now uses postMessage
Bun uses setTimeout because while it also supports setImmediate the
scheduling is not as eager as the same API in node
the FB build also uses setTimeout
This change required a number of changes to tests which were utilizing
the sync nature of work in the Browser builds to avoid having to manage
timers and tasks. I added a patch to install MessageChannel which is
required by the browser builds and made this patched version integrate
with the Scheduler mock. This way we can effectively use `act` to flush
flight and fizz work similar to how we do this on the client.
Stacked on #28997.
We can use the technique of referencing an object by its row + property
name path for temporary references - like we do for deduping. That way
we don't need to generate an ID for temporary references. Instead, they
can just be an opaque marker in the slot and it has the implicit ID of
the row + path.
Then we can stash all objects, even the ones that are actually available
to read on the server, as temporary references. Without adding anything
to the payload since the IDs are implicit. If the same object is
returned to the client, it can be referenced by reference instead of
serializing it back to the client. This also helps preserve object
identity.
We assume that the objects are immutable when they pass the boundary.
I'm not sure if this is worth it but with this mechanism, if you return
the `FormData` payload from a `useActionState` it doesn't have to be
serialized on the way back to the client. This is a common pattern for
having access to the last submission as "default value" to the form
fields. However you can still control it by replacing it with another
object if you want. In MPA mode, the temporary references are not
configured and so it needs to be serialized in that case. That's
required anyway for hydration purposes.
I'm not sure if people will actually use this in practice though or if
FormData will always be destructured into some other object like with a
library that turns it into typed data, and back. If so, the object
identity is lost.
Uses the same technique as in #28996 to encode references to already
emitted objects. This now means that Reply can support cyclic objects
too for parity.
Same as #28847 but in the other direction.
Like other promises, this doesn't actually stream in the outgoing
direction. It buffers until the stream is done. This is mainly due to
our protocol remains compatible with Safari's lack of outgoing streams
until recently.
However, the stream chunks are encoded as separate fields and so does
support the busboy streaming on the receiving side.
For [`AsyncIterable`](https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/28847) we
encode `AsyncIterator` as a separate tag.
Previously we encoded `Iterator` as just an Array. This adds a special
encoding for this. Technically this is a breaking change.
This is kind of an edge case that you'd care about the difference but it
becomes more important to treat these correctly for the warnings here
#28853.
We have a different set of dispatchers that Flight uses. This also
includes the `jsx-runtime` which must also be aliased to use the right
version.
To ensure the right versions are used together we rename the export of
the SharedInternals from 'react' and alias it in relevant bundles.
Currently you can accidentally pass React Element to a Server Action. It
warns but in prod it actually works because we can encode the symbol and
otherwise it's mostly a plain object. It only works if you only pass
host components and no function props etc. which makes it potentially
error later. The first thing this does it just early hard error for
elements.
I made Lazy work by unwrapping though since that will be replaced by
Promises later which works.
Our protocol is not fully symmetric in that elements flow from Server ->
Client. Only the Server can resolve Components and only the client
should really be able to receive host components. It's not intended that
a Server can actually do something with them other than passing them to
the client.
In the case of a Reply, we expect the client to be stateful. It's
waiting for a response. So anything we can't serialize we can still pass
by reference to an in memory object. So I introduce the concept of a
TemporaryReferenceSet which is an opaque object that you create before
encoding the reply. This then stashes any unserializable values in this
set and encode the slot by id. When a new response from the Action then
returns we pass the same temporary set into the parser which can then
restore the objects. This lets you pass a value by reference to the
server and back into another slot.
For example it can be used to render children inside a parent tree from
a server action:
```
export async function Component({ children }) {
"use server";
return <div>{children}</div>;
}
```
(You wouldn't normally do this due to the waterfalls but for advanced
cases.)
A common scenario where this comes up accidentally today is in
`useActionState`.
```
export function action(state, formData) {
"use server";
if (errored) {
return <div>This action <strong>errored</strong></div>;
}
return null;
}
```
```
const [errors, formAction] = useActionState(action);
return <div>{errors}<div>;
```
It feels like I'm just passing the JSX from server to client. However,
because `useActionState` also sends the previous state *back* to the
server this should not actually be valid. Before this PR this actually
worked accidentally. You get a DEV warning but it used to work in prod.
Once you do something like pass a client reference it won't work tho. We
could perhaps make client references work by stashing where we got them
from but it wouldn't work with all possible JSX.
By adding temporary references to the action implementation this will
work again - on the client. It'll also be more efficient since we don't
send back the JSX content that you shouldn't introspect on the server
anyway.
However, a flaw here is that the progressive enhancement of this case
won't work because we can't use temporary references for progressive
enhancement since there's no in memory stash. What is worse is that it
won't error if you hydrate. ~It also will error late in the example
above because the first state is "undefined" so invoking the form once
works - it errors on the second attempt when it tries to send the error
state back again.~ It actually errors on the first invocation because we
need to eagerly serialize "previous state" into the form. So at least
that's better.
I think maybe the solution to this particular pattern would be to allow
JSX to serialize if you have no temporary reference set, and remember
client references so that client references can be returned back to the
server as client references. That way anything you could send from the
server could also be returned to the server. But it would only deopt to
serializing it for progressive enhancement. The consequence of that
would be that there's a lot of JSX that might accidentally seem like it
should work but it's only if you've gotten it from the server before
that it works. This would have to have pair them somehow though since
you can't take a client reference from one implementation of Flight and
use it with another.
The internal file ReactSharedSubset is what the `react` module resolves
to when imported from a Server Component environment. We gave it this
name because, originally, the idea was that Server Components can access
a subset of the APIs available on the client.
However, since then, we've also added APIs that can _only_ by accessed
on the server and not the client. In other words, it's no longer a
subset, it's a slightly different overlapping set.
So this commit renames ReactSharedSubet to ReactServer and updates all
the references. This does not affect the public API, only our internal
implementation.
creating the root after closing the response can lead to a promise that
never rejects. This is not intended use of the decodeReply API but if
pathalogical cases where you pass a raw FormData into this fucntion with
no zero chunk it can hang forever. This reordering causes a connection
error instead

I do this by simply renaming the secret export name in the "subset"
bundle and this renamed version is what the FlightServer uses.
This requires us to be more diligent about always using the correct
instance of "react" in our tests so there's a bunch of clean up for
that.
We already did this for Server References on the Client so this brings
us parity with that. This gives us some more flexibility with changing
the runtime implementation without having to affect the loaders.
We can also do more in the runtime such as adding `.bind()` support to
Server References.
I also moved the CommonJS Proxy creation into the runtime helper from
the register so that it can be handled in one place.
This lets us remove the forks from Next.js since the loaders can be
simplified there to just use these helpers.
This PR doesn't change the protocol or shape of the objects. They're
still specific to each bundler but ideally we should probably move this
to shared helpers that can be used by multiple bundler implementations.
We already support these in the sense that they're Iterable so they just
get serialized as arrays. However, these are part of the Structured
Clone algorithm [and should be
supported](https://github.com/facebook/react/issues/25687).
The encoding is simply the same form as the Iterable, which is
conveniently the same as the constructor argument. The difference is
that now there's a separate reference to it.
It's a bit awkward because for multiple reference to the same value,
it'd be a new Map/Set instance for each reference. So to encode sharing,
it needs one level of indirection with its own ID. That's not really a
big deal for other types since they're inline anyway - but since this
needs to be outlined it creates possibly two ids where there only needs
to be one or zero.
One variant would be to encode this in the row type. Another variant
would be something like what we do for React Elements where they're
arrays but tagged with a symbol. For simplicity I stick with the simple
outlining for now.
Builds on top of https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/26661
This lets you pass FormData objects through the Flight Reply
serialization. It does that by prefixing each entry with the ID of the
reference and then the decoding side creates a new FormData object
containing only those fields (without the prefix).
Ideally this should be more generic. E.g. you should be able to pass
Blobs, Streams and Typed Arrays by reference inside plain objects too.
You should also be able to send Blobs and FormData in the regular Flight
serialization too so that they can go both directions. They should be
symmetrical. We'll get around to adding more of those features in the
Flight protocol as we go.
