Hono RPC
Hello 👋 techies! It's Alfred. I'm currently working on building a backend service with Bun and Hono. I'm facing some challenges with the Hono RPC. Can anyone help me out?

Hey Coleretriever,
I finally figured out why I wasn't getting auto-complete in my Hobo RPC project. It turns out that breaking the app into modules was causing the issue. I tried using the createFactory method as suggested in the docs, but it wasn't working.
Luckily, I was able to resolve it by manually defining the types.
did you use createFactory and middleware vs creating endpoints? I've run into the same issue generating an OpenAPI client
No, it didn't fix it. I passed the route definition when initializing Hono.
I think it's because you are doing something bad in your code base i use hono rpc and has no issue with type completion and didn't need to do that
It's difficult to say. The auto complete feature works better when you're chaining the endpoints, which is also the recommended way. But I wanted to break it into separate files using the createfactory API according to the docs. But the createfactory API is not smart enough to infer the types.
I splited my routes by creating router like you would do in express and not use factory
Wow, that's incredible! How did you pull that off? I'd love to learn more about your process.

Okay. Thank you
This explains it. I guess I have to swap to zod openapi. Thank you
No you don’t it’s juste that i needed thé open api
Oh... Sadly Hono doesn't have a built in createRoute API.

It's another template for mono repo
The only thing you miss in autocomplete is status from the middleware
This is great.... This is the endpoints chaining I was talking about. I wanted something more like node and Express.
It's how you do in node and express with you express router dk what you mean
I wanted to group related endpoints. And have a separate file for route handling
