Allow useLiveQuery({ query }) callbacks to return undefined or null. Config-based queries can now use the same enabled/disabled pattern as the top-level callback form, with correct runtime state and TypeScript inference.

Root cause

The config-object path invoked its query callback but always returned the surrounding config object. A nullish callback result therefore became { query: undefined } or { query: null } instead of the top-level nullish value used to mark a query as disabled. The React overloads also required config callbacks to return a builder, so valid conditional configs failed type checking before they reached that runtime path.

Approach

  • Promote a nullish result from a config query callback to the prepared query value itself.
  • Add and export ConditionalUseLiveQueryConfig for disabled-capable configs while preserving the existing enabled-only meaning of UseLiveQueryConfig.
  • Add conditional config overloads for both the standard call and the retained dependency-array form.
  • Keep precise non-optional results for enabled configs and useLiveSuspenseQuery.
  • Preserve the query builder's root-object result constraint.
  • Document the config syntax and its disabled snapshot state.

Key invariants

  • Each config callback is evaluated once during preparation.
  • undefined and null both disable the query.
  • A callback that always returns a builder keeps the existing enabled-only return type.
  • A separately annotated UseLiveQueryConfig remains accepted by useLiveSuspenseQuery.
  • Conditional configs work with the retained dependency-array overload until it is removed in 1.0.
  • Conditional configs retain derived identity across disable, enable, and disable transitions when no queryKey is supplied.
  • Top-level scalar query results remain rejected by TypeScript.

Non-goals

  • This does not remove or change the top-level callback form.
  • This does not add conditional queries to useLiveSuspenseQuery; suspense keeps the enabled-only config type.
  • This does not change explicit queryKey behavior.

Trade-offs

Preserving UseLiveQueryConfig as enabled-only avoids a source-breaking change for reusable suspense configs. Conditional wrappers can use the new exported ConditionalUseLiveQueryConfig type. This adds a public type and an overload, but keeps the patch release compatible and preserves precise enabled results.

Verification

cd packages/db
../../node_modules/.bin/vitest run tests/live-query-options.test.ts --coverage.enabled=false --pool-options.threads.maxThreads=2

cd ../react-db
../../node_modules/.bin/vitest run tests/useLiveQuery.test.tsx --coverage.enabled=false --pool-options.threads.maxThreads=2
../../node_modules/.bin/vitest typecheck tests/useLiveQuery.test-d.tsx --run --coverage.enabled=false --pool-options.threads.maxThreads=2
pnpm build

The React hook test file passes 54/54, the public type suite passes 16/16, and the affected package build and lint checks pass.

Files changed

  • packages/db/src/live-query-options.ts: propagate nullish config callback results as disabled queries.
  • packages/db/tests/live-query-options.test.ts: cover config query preparation for undefined and null.
  • packages/react-db/src/useLiveQuery.ts: add the conditional config type and standard/legacy overloads while preserving enabled config compatibility.
  • packages/react-db/src/useLiveSuspenseQuery.ts: retain the public enabled-only config contract.
  • packages/react-db/src/index.ts: export ConditionalUseLiveQueryConfig.
  • packages/react-db/tests/useLiveQuery.test.tsx: cover disabled configs, derived-identity transitions, and the dependency-array compatibility path.
  • packages/react-db/tests/useLiveQuery.test-d.tsx: cover conditional findOne inference, annotated suspense configs, dependency-array configs, and scalar rejection.
  • docs/guides/live-queries.md and packages/react-db/skills/react-db/SKILL.md: document conditional config syntax and state.
  • .changeset/support-conditional-live-query-configs.md: publish patch releases for @tanstack/db and @tanstack/react-db.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Live queries can now be conditionally disabled by returning undefined or null from a query callback.
    • Disabled queries report disabled status, undefined data, and appropriate readiness and enabled-state values.
    • Added public typing support for conditional live-query configurations.
  • Documentation
    • Updated live-query guides and examples to demonstrate conditional configuration and disabled-query behavior.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved support for enabling and disabling queries across current and legacy configuration styles.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The live-query APIs now support conditional query callbacks that disable queries by returning undefined or null. React types, overloads, runtime preparation, tests, examples, documentation, and release metadata were updated.

Changes

Conditional live-query configuration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Prepare nullable live-query values
packages/db/src/live-query-options.ts, packages/db/tests/live-query-options.test.ts
Query callbacks are evaluated before configuration creation. undefined and null are returned as disabled values.
Model conditional React queries
packages/react-db/src/useLiveQuery.ts, packages/react-db/src/index.ts, packages/react-db/tests/useLiveQuery.test-d.tsx
React types and overloads distinguish always-enabled queries from nullable callbacks. Conditional results expose optional data and isEnabled.
Validate disabled-query behavior
packages/react-db/tests/useLiveQuery.test.tsx, docs/guides/live-queries.md, packages/react-db/skills/react-db/SKILL.md, .changeset/support-conditional-live-query-configs.md
Runtime tests cover nullish results, re-enabling, deprecated dependency-array usage, and pending synchronization. Examples, documentation, and release metadata describe the updated behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 79f0d

The PR adds conditional query configuration support while preserving existing enabled-query behavior and reports passing targeted tests, type checks, and builds; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal review.

- Around line 2054-2095: The test around the conditional config query must cover
disabling while synchronization is still pending, not only after readiness. Add
a controlled asynchronous sync scenario that rerenders with enabled false before
sync resolves, then resolves the pending sync and verifies status stays disabled
while data and collection remain undefined, using the existing test helpers and
query symbols.
