@liveblocks/codemod - npm Package Versions

v2.0.0

This major release marks the maturity of Liveblocks. It contains new products (@liveblocks/react-lexical) and clarifications (e.g. @liveblocks/react-comments is now called @liveblocks/react-ui).

Also, we bring major DX improvements by allowing you to specify your types globally now. These types will be typed once and shared across all Liveblocks APIs, which includes your Node backend.

// ❌ Before
export const {
  suspense: {
    RoomProvider,
    useRoom,
    // etc
  },
} = createRoomContext<Presence, Storage>(client);

// ✅ After
declare global {
  interface Liveblocks {
    Presence: Presence;
    Storage: Storage;
  }
}

In @liveblocks/react, you can now import hooks directly:

// ❌ Before: get hooks exported from your Liveblocks config
import { RoomProvider, useRoom, ... } from "./liveblocks.config";

// ✅ After: import hooks directly
import { RoomProvider, useRoom, ... } from "@liveblocks/react";
import { RoomProvider, useRoom, ... } from "@liveblocks/react/suspense";

// ❌ Before
const client = createClient(/* options */);

// ✅ After
<LiveblocksProvider /* options */>
  <App />
</LiveblocksProvider>
