Client configuration

DB options

These options define your local cache.

  • schema is a hard coded schema for your local cache
  • storage determines the storage engines for your local cache (see Storage)

Sync options

These options define how you want to sync with the server.

  • serverUrl is the url of the server where your project lives e.g. https://<project-id>.triplit.io
  • autoConnect determines whether the client should connect to the server immediately upon instantiation. If set to false, you can manually connect with the client.connect() method.
⚠️

The client connects over WebSockets (opens in a new tab), so you if you are instantiating a client in code that may run in an environment where WebSockets are not available (e.g. the server during server-side rendering), you should set autoConnect to false or preferably to an environmental variable (opens in a new tab) that indicates whether the client should connect.

The serverUrl can be updated with the client.updateServerUrl method.

Auth options

These options define how you authenticate with your client database and remote database.

  • token is a jwt that is used to identify the user to the client database and remote databases (see the Auth guide). Providing a token will set the variable $session.SESSION_USER_ID on the database, which is used for authorization rules.
  • claimsPath is the path to the Triplit claims on the token. It should be a . separated string like path.to.claims. This should match the value set on your project in the Triplit Dashboard.
  • onSessionError is a function that is called when the client receives an error from the server about the session, which will lead to the sync connection to being terminated. Read more about refreshing a session in the Sessions guide.
  • refreshOptions can be used to set the refreshHandler and interval for the client. Read more about refreshing a session in the Sessions guide.
