Thanks. Ideally, what I'd want is a way to deactivate overly strict validation for convex functions in general. I will use this for now, thanks.

Thanks. IMO, part of makes convex so great to use is being able to call backend functions as if they were normal javascript/typescript functions. However, these are the small things that get in the way of simply being able to treat them as normal functions

especially if you are just retreiving an item from convex, mutating it and sending back the new version

i could probably diff() real changes and then send a PATCH with only what changed, but i didn't :p

all of these are pure functions which don't mutate the database, they only return new information which can then be considered to make new decisions. This lets me centralize the decision-making in a single function, instead of spreading it all around

its a pretty complex flow with many functions, so if I were to call
update functions inside each one one of them to update only what changed, understanding what's going on (and where) gets pretty unwiedly48 replies
