### What?
The `in` & `not_in` operators were not properly working for `text`
fields as this operator requires an array of values for it's input.
### How?
Conditionally renders a multi select input for `text` fields when
filtering by `in` & `not_in` operators.

Implements a form state task queue. This will prevent onChange handlers
within the form component from processing unnecessarily often, sometimes
long after the user has stopped making changes. This leads to a
potentially huge number of network requests if those changes were made
slower than the debounce rate. This is especially noticeable on slow
networks.
Does so through a new `useQueue` hook. This hook maintains a stack of
events that need processing but only processes the final event to
arrive. Every time a new event is pushed to the stack, the currently
running process is aborted (if any), and that event becomes the next in
the queue. This results in a shocking reduction in the time it takes
between final change to form state and the final network response, from
~1.5 minutes to ~3 seconds (depending on the scenario, see below).
This likely fixes a number of existing open issues. I will link those
issues here once they are identified and verifiably fixed.
Before:
I'm typing slowly here to ensure my changes aren't debounce by the form.
There are a total of 60 characters typed, triggering 58 network requests
and taking around 1.5 minutes to complete after the final change was
made.

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/11568
### What? Out of sync errors states
- Collaspibles & Tabs were not reporting accurate child error counts
- Arrays could get into a state where they would not update their error
states
- Slight issue with toasts
### Tabs & Collapsibles
The logic for determining matching field paths was not functioning as
intended. Fields were attempting to match with paths such as `_index-0`
which will not work.
### Arrays
The form state was not updating when the server sent back errorPaths.
This PR adds `errorPaths` to `serverPropsToAccept`.
### Toasts
Some toasts could report errors in the form of `my > > error`. This
ensures they will be `my > error`
### Misc
Removes 2 files that were not in use:
- `getFieldStateFromPaths.ts`
- `getNestedFieldState.ts`
If you have multiple blocks that are used in multiple places, this can quickly blow up the size of your Payload Config. This will incur a performance hit, as more data is
1. sent to the client (=> bloated `ClientConfig` and large initial html) and
2. processed on the server (permissions are calculated every single time you navigate to a page - this iterates through all blocks you have defined, even if they're duplicative)
This can be optimized by defining your block **once** in your Payload Config, and just referencing the block slug whenever it's used, instead of passing the entire block config. To do this, the block can be defined in the `blocks` array of the Payload Config. The slug can then be passed to the `blockReferences` array in the Blocks Field - the `blocks` array has to be empty for compatibility reasons.
```ts
import { buildConfig } from 'payload'
import { lexicalEditor, BlocksFeature } from '@payloadcms/richtext-lexical'
// Payload Config
const config = buildConfig({
// Define the block once
blocks: [
{
slug: 'TextBlock',
fields: [
{
name: 'text',
type: 'text',
},
],
},
],
collections: [
{
slug: 'collection1',
fields: [
{
name: 'content',
type: 'blocks',
// Reference the block by slug
blockReferences: ['TextBlock'],
blocks: [], // Required to be empty, for compatibility reasons
},
],
},
{
slug: 'collection2',
fields: [
{
name: 'editor',
type: 'richText',
editor: lexicalEditor({
BlocksFeature({
// Same reference can be reused anywhere, even in the lexical editor, without incurred performance hit
blocks: ['TextBlock'],
})
})
},
],
},
],
})
```
## v4.0 Plans
In 4.0, we will remove the `blockReferences` property, and allow string block references to be passed directly to the blocks `property`. Essentially, we'd remove the `blocks` property and rename `blockReferences` to `blocks`.
The reason we opted to a new property in this PR is to avoid breaking changes. Allowing strings to be passed to the `blocks` property will prevent plugins that iterate through fields / blocks from compiling.
## PR Changes
- Testing: This PR introduces a plugin that automatically converts blocks to block references. This is done in the fields__blocks test suite, to run our existing test suite using block references.
- Block References support: Most changes are similar. Everywhere we iterate through blocks, we have to now do the following:
1. Check if `field.blockReferences` is provided. If so, only iterate through that.
2. Check if the block is an object (= actual block), or string
3. If it's a string, pull the actual block from the Payload Config or from `payload.blocks`.
The exception is config sanitization and block type generations. This PR optimizes them so that each block is only handled once, instead of every time the block is referenced.
## Benchmarks
60 Block fields, each block field having the same 600 Blocks.

## Future Plans
1. This PR does not yet deduplicate block references during permissions calculation. We'll optimize that in a separate PR, as this one is already large enough
2. The same optimization can be done to deduplicate fields. One common use-case would be link field groups that may be referenced in multiple entities, outside of blocks. We might explore adding a new `fieldReferences` property, that allows you to reference those same `config.blocks`.
Previously, data created by other tests was also leaking into unrelated tests, causing them to fail. The new reset-db-between-tests logic added by this PR fixes this.
Additionally, this increases playwright timeouts for CI, and adds a specific timeout override for opening a drawer, as it was incredibly slow in CI
Adds a new `addListFilter` e2e helper. This will help to standardize
this common functionality across all tests that require filtering list
tables and help reduce the overall lines of code within each test file.
Continuation of #9846 and partial fix for #9774. When setting
`admin.disableListFilter` retroactively, it remains active within the
list filter controls. Same for when the URL search query contains one of
these fields, except this will actually display the _wrong_ field,
falling back to the _first_ field from the config. The fix is to
properly disable the condition for this field if it's an active filter,
while still preventing it from ever rendering as an option within the
field selector itself.
Currently, Payload renders all custom components on initial compile of
the admin panel. This is problematic for two key reasons:
1. Custom components do not receive contextual data, i.e. fields do not
receive their field data, edit views do not receive their document data,
etc.
2. Components are unnecessarily rendered before they are used
This was initially required to support React Server Components within
the Payload Admin Panel for two key reasons:
1. Fields can be dynamically rendered within arrays, blocks, etc.
2. Documents can be recursively rendered within a "drawer" UI, i.e.
relationship fields
3. Payload supports server/client component composition
In order to achieve this, components need to be rendered on the server
and passed as "slots" to the client. Currently, the pattern for this is
to render custom server components in the "client config". Then when a
view or field is needed to be rendered, we first check the client config
for a "pre-rendered" component, otherwise render our client-side
fallback component.
But for the reasons listed above, this pattern doesn't exactly make
custom server components very useful within the Payload Admin Panel,
which is where this PR comes in. Now, instead of pre-rendering all
components on initial compile, we're able to render custom components
_on demand_, only as they are needed.
To achieve this, we've established [this
pattern](https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/pull/8481) of React
Server Functions in the Payload Admin Panel. With Server Functions, we
can iterate the Payload Config and return JSX through React's
`text/x-component` content-type. This means we're able to pass
contextual props to custom components, such as data for fields and
views.
## Breaking Changes
1. Add the following to your root layout file, typically located at
`(app)/(payload)/layout.tsx`:
```diff
/* THIS FILE WAS GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY BY PAYLOAD. */
/* DO NOT MODIFY IT BECAUSE IT COULD BE REWRITTEN AT ANY TIME. */
+ import type { ServerFunctionClient } from 'payload'
import config from '@payload-config'
import { RootLayout } from '@payloadcms/next/layouts'
import { handleServerFunctions } from '@payloadcms/next/utilities'
import React from 'react'
import { importMap } from './admin/importMap.js'
import './custom.scss'
type Args = {
children: React.ReactNode
}
+ const serverFunctions: ServerFunctionClient = async function (args) {
+ 'use server'
+ return handleServerFunctions({
+ ...args,
+ config,
+ importMap,
+ })
+ }
const Layout = ({ children }: Args) => (
<RootLayout
config={config}
importMap={importMap}
+ serverFunctions={serverFunctions}
>
{children}
</RootLayout>
)
export default Layout
```
2. If you were previously posting to the `/api/form-state` endpoint, it
no longer exists. Instead, you'll need to invoke the `form-state` Server
Function, which can be done through the _new_ `getFormState` utility:
```diff
- import { getFormState } from '@payloadcms/ui'
- const { state } = await getFormState({
- apiRoute: '',
- body: {
- // ...
- },
- serverURL: ''
- })
+ const { getFormState } = useServerFunctions()
+
+ const { state } = await getFormState({
+ // ...
+ })
```
## Breaking Changes
```diff
- useFieldProps()
- useCellProps()
```

Continuation of #8243. Strongly types the `value` argument within
`field.validate` functions:
- Uses existing internal validation types for field `validate` property
- Exports additional validation types to cover `hasMany` fields
- Includes `null` and `undefined` values
## Description
Currently, there is no way to read field props from within a custom
field component, i.e. `admin.components.Description`. For example, if
you set `maxLength: 100` on your field, your custom description
component cannot read it from `props.maxLength` or any other methods.
Because these components are rendered on the server, there is also no
way of using `admin.component.Field` to inject custom props yourself,
either. To support this, we can simply pass the base component props
into these components on the server, as expected. This has also led to
custom field component props becoming more strictly typed within the
config.
This change is considered breaking only because the types have changed.
This only affects you if you were previously importing the following
types into your own custom components. To migrate, simply change the
import paths for that type.
Old:
```ts
import type {
ArrayFieldProps,
ReducedBlock,
BlocksFieldProps,
CheckboxFieldProps,
CodeFieldProps,
CollapsibleFieldProps,
DateFieldProps,
EmailFieldProps,
GroupFieldProps,
HiddenFieldProps,
JSONFieldProps,
NumberFieldProps,
PointFieldProps,
RadioFieldProps,
RelationshipFieldProps,
RichTextComponentProps,
RowFieldProps,
SelectFieldProps,
TabsFieldProps,
TextFieldProps,
TextareaFieldProps,
UploadFieldProps,
ErrorProps,
FormFieldBase,
FieldComponentProps,
FieldMap,
MappedField,
MappedTab,
ReducedBlock,
} from '@payloadcms/ui'
```
New:
```ts
import type {
FormFieldBase,
// etc.
} from 'payload'
```
Custom field components are now much more strongly typed. To make this
happen, an explicit type for every custom component has been generated
for every field type. The convention is to append
`DescriptionComponent`, `LabelComponent`, and `ErrorComponent` onto the
end of the field name, i.e. `TextFieldDescriptionComponent`. Here's an
example:
```ts
import type { TextFieldDescriptionComponent } from 'payload'
import React from 'react'
export const CustomDescription: TextFieldDescriptionComponent = (props) => {
return (
<div id="custom-field-description">{`The max length of this field is: ${props?.maxLength}`}</div>
)
}
```
Here's the full list of all new types:
Label Components:
```ts
import type {
ArrayFieldLabelComponent,
BlocksFieldLabelComponent,
CheckboxFieldLabelComponent,
CodeFieldLabelComponent,
CollapsibleFieldLabelComponent,
DateFieldLabelComponent,
EmailFieldLabelComponent,
GroupFieldLabelComponent,
HiddenFieldLabelComponent,
JSONFieldLabelComponent,
NumberFieldLabelComponent,
PointFieldLabelComponent,
RadioFieldLabelComponent,
RelationshipFieldLabelComponent,
RichTextFieldLabelComponent,
RowFieldLabelComponent,
SelectFieldLabelComponent,
TabsFieldLabelComponent,
TextFieldLabelComponent,
TextareaFieldLabelComponent,
UploadFieldLabelComponent
} from 'payload'
```
Error Components:
```tsx
import type {
ArrayFieldErrorComponent,
BlocksFieldErrorComponent,
CheckboxFieldErrorComponent,
CodeFieldErrorComponent,
CollapsibleFieldErrorComponent,
DateFieldErrorComponent,
EmailFieldErrorComponent,
GroupFieldErrorComponent,
HiddenFieldErrorComponent,
JSONFieldErrorComponent,
NumberFieldErrorComponent,
PointFieldErrorComponent,
RadioFieldErrorComponent,
RelationshipFieldErrorComponent,
RichTextFieldErrorComponent,
RowFieldErrorComponent,
SelectFieldErrorComponent,
TabsFieldErrorComponent,
TextFieldErrorComponent,
TextareaFieldErrorComponent,
UploadFieldErrorComponent
} from 'payload'
```
Description Components:
```tsx
import type {
ArrayFieldDescriptionComponent,
BlocksFieldDescriptionComponent,
CheckboxFieldDescriptionComponent,
CodeFieldDescriptionComponent,
CollapsibleFieldDescriptionComponent,
DateFieldDescriptionComponent,
EmailFieldDescriptionComponent,
GroupFieldDescriptionComponent,
HiddenFieldDescriptionComponent,
JSONFieldDescriptionComponent,
NumberFieldDescriptionComponent,
PointFieldDescriptionComponent,
RadioFieldDescriptionComponent,
RelationshipFieldDescriptionComponent,
RichTextFieldDescriptionComponent,
RowFieldDescriptionComponent,
SelectFieldDescriptionComponent,
TabsFieldDescriptionComponent,
TextFieldDescriptionComponent,
TextareaFieldDescriptionComponent,
UploadFieldDescriptionComponent
} from 'payload'
```
This PR also:
- Standardizes the `FieldBase['label']` type with a new `LabelStatic`
type. This makes type usage much more consistent across components.

unneeded `<Omit>`, etc.

# Breaking Changes
### New file import locations
Exports from the `payload` package have been _significantly_ cleaned up.
Now, just about everything is able to be imported from `payload`
directly, rather than an assortment of subpath exports. This means that
things like `import { buildConfig } from 'payload/config'` are now just
imported via `import { buildConfig } from 'payload'`. The mental model
is significantly simpler for developers, but you might need to update
some of your imports.
Payload now exposes only three exports:
1. `payload` - all types and server-only Payload code
2. `payload/shared` - utilities that can be used in either the browser
or in Node environments
3. `payload/node` - heavy utilities that should only be imported in Node
scripts and never be imported into bundled code like Next.js
### UI library pre-bundling
With this release, we've dramatically sped up the compile time for
Payload by pre-bundling our entire UI package for use inside of the
Payload admin itself. There are new exports that should be used within
Payload custom components:
1. `@payloadcms/ui/client` - all client components
2. `@payloadcms/ui/server` - all server components
For all of your custom Payload admin UI components, you should be
importing from one of these two pre-compiled barrel files rather than
importing from the more deeply nested exports directly. That will keep
compile times nice and speedy, and will also make sure that the bundled
JS for your admin UI is kept small.
For example, whereas before, if you imported the Payload `Button`, you
would have imported it like this:
```ts
import { Button } from '@payloadcms/ui/elements/Button'
```
Now, you would import it like this:
```ts
import { Button } from '@payloadcms/ui/client'
```
This is a significant DX / performance optimization that we're pretty
pumped about.
However, if you are importing or re-using Payload UI components
_outside_ of the Payload admin UI, for example in your own frontend
apps, you can import from the individual component exports which will
make sure that the bundled JS is kept to a minimum in your frontend
apps. So in your own frontend, you can continue to import directly to
the components that you want to consume rather than importing from the
pre-compiled barrel files.
Individual component exports will now come with their corresponding CSS
and everything will work perfectly as-expected.
### Specific exports have changed
- `'@payloadcms/ui/templates/Default'` and
`'@payloadcms/ui/templates/Minimal`' are now exported from
`'@payloadcms/next/templates'`
- Old: `import { LogOut } from '@payloadcms/ui/icons/LogOut'` new:
`import { LogOutIcon } from '@payloadcms/ui/icons/LogOut'`
## Background info
In effort to make local dev as fast as possible, we need to import as
few files as possible so that the compiler has less to process. One way
we've achieved this in the Admin Panel was to _remove_ all .scss imports
from all components in the `@payloadcms/ui` module using a build
process. This stripped all `import './index.scss'` statements out of
each component before injecting them into `dist`. Instead, it bundles
all of the CSS into a single `main.css` file, and we import _that_ at
the root of the app.
While this concept is _still_ the right solution to the problem, this
particular approach is not viable when using these components outside
the Admin Panel, where not only does this root stylesheet not exist, but
where it would also bloat your app with unused styles. Instead, we need
to _keep_ these .scss imports in place so they are imported directly
alongside your components, as expected. Then, we need create a _new_
build step that _separately_ compiles the components _without_ their
stylesheets—this way your app can consume either as needed from the new
`client` and `server` barrel files within `@payloadcms/ui`, i.e. from
within `@payloadcms/next` and all other admin-specific packages and
plugins.
This way, all other applications will simply import using the direct
file paths, just as they did before. Except now they come with
stylesheets.
And we've gotten a pretty awesome initial compilation performance boost.

**BREAKING:** We now export toast from `sonner` instead of
`react-toastify`. If you send out toasts from your own projects, make
sure to use our `toast` export, or install `sonner`. React-toastify
toasts will no longer work anymore. The Toast APIs are mostly similar,
but there are some differences if you provide options to your toast
CSS styles have been changed from Toastify
```css
/* before */
.Toastify
/* current */
.payload-toast-container
.payload-toast-item
.payload-toast-close-button
/* individual toast items will also have these classes depending on the state */
.toast-info
