Simple remote procedure calls (RPC) in TypeScript.

  • 🪡  Fully typed procedure calls using your TypeScript types — no runtime or code generation needed.
  • 🖼️  Handles binary data in both directions (think: file uploads and downloads).
  • 🎛️  Compatible with any Express-like server.

Install

npm install r19

Quick start

  1. Create an RPC Express middleware containing your procedures. A procedure is any sync or async function that accepts one or no arguments.

    // src/rpc-middleware.ts
    
    import { createRPCMiddleware, ExtractProcedures } from "r19";
    
    export const middleware = createRPCMiddleware({
    	procedures: {
    		ping: async () => {
    			await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 1000));
    
    			return "pong";
    		},
    	},
    });
    
    // This type will be passed to the RPC client.
    export type Procedures = ExtractProcedures<typeof middleware>;
    
  2. Add the middleware to your Express-compatible server.

    // src/server.ts
    
    import express from "express";
    import { middleware } from "./rpc-middleware";
    
    const app = express();
    
    // Pass `middleware` from the previous step.
    app.use("/rpc", middleware);
    
    app.listen();
    

    The server is now set up to accept RPC calls at /rpc using a client.

  3. In your remote app (e.g. your app's frontend), create a client to call the RPC server.

    // src/index.ts
    
    import { createRPCClient } from "r19/client";
    import type { Procedures } from "./rpc-middleware";
    
    const client = createRPCClient<Procedures>({
    	serverURL: "https://example.com/rpc",
    });
    
    const pong = await client.ping(); // => "pong"
    

    Calling client.ping() will send a request to the server at https://example.com/rpc and return ping()'s return value from the server. The client is fully typed using your procedure's types.
