Unknown Procedure Type - Next.js App Router

[alex-streza]

I'm running a project using create-t3-turbo and wanted to add OpenAPI support to trpc routers but I keep getting this error, any help is much appreciated, kinda counting on getting OpenAPI support this way.

@morrow/nextjs:dev:  ⨯ Error: Unknown procedure type
@morrow/nextjs:dev:     at getProcedureType (/Users/alex/Documents/GitHub/morrow/node_modules/trpc-openapi/dist/utils/procedure.js:26:11)

I went in the procedure.js file to debug and saw that procedure._def doesn't seem to exist in my trpc: next version (11.0.0-next-alpha.149+11361b82d)

I'm not 100% certain if it's because of this but I'm also using trpc in app router and trpc-openapi in pages/api

pages/api/[...trpc].ts

import type { NextApiRequest, NextApiResponse } from "next";
import { createOpenApiNextHandler } from "trpc-openapi";

import { appRouter } from "@morrow/api";
import { createTRPCOpenAPIContext } from "@morrow/api/src/trpc";

const handler = async (req: NextApiRequest, res: NextApiResponse) => {
  return createOpenApiNextHandler({
    router: appRouter,
    createContext: () => createTRPCOpenAPIContext(),
    onError({ error, path }) {
      console.error(`>>> tRPC OpenAPI Error on '${path}'`, error);
    },
    responseMeta: undefined,
  })(req, res);
};

export default handler;

@jlalmes / @alex-streza, i faced the same issue when i'm trying to use this via nest application. the issue lies in procedure.ts:getProcedureType method. the latest @trpc/server is emitting procedure definition as below:

 [AsyncFunction: procedure] {
  _def: {
    procedure: true,
    inputs: [],
    middlewares: [ [AsyncFunction: resolveMiddleware] ],
    meta: { openapi: [Object] },
    type: 'query',
    resolver: [Function (anonymous)]
  }
} 

currently this is the method implementation:

const getProcedureType = (procedure: OpenApiProcedure): ProcedureType => {
  if (procedure._def.query) return 'query';
  if (procedure._def.mutation) return 'mutation';
  if (procedure._def.subscription) return 'subscription';
  throw new Error('Unknown procedure type');
};

changing this to below:

const getProcedureType = (procedure: OpenApiProcedure): ProcedureType => {
  if (procedure._def.query) return 'query';
  if (procedure._def.mutation) return 'mutation';
  if (procedure._def.subscription) return 'subscription';
  if (procedure._def.type) return procedure._def.type; // return type if it exists on _def without breaking existing functionality
  throw new Error('Unknown procedure type');
};

may solve this issue.

This is the basic stackblitz app to reproduce this.

PS: i'm using @trpc/server@next version.
