When using the `admin.hidden: true` property on a collection, it
rightfully removes all navigation and routing for that particular
collection. However, this also affects the expected behavior of hidden
entities when they are rendered within a drawer, such as the document
drawer or list drawer. For example, when creating a new _admin.hidden_
document through the relationship or join field, the drawer should still
render the view, despite the underlying route for that view being
disabled. This change was a result of the introduction of on-demand
server components in #8364, where we now make a server roundtrip to
render the view in its entirety, which include the logic that redirects
these hidden entities.
Now, we pass a new `overrideEntityVisibility` argument through the
server function that, when true, skips this step. This way documents can
continue to respect `admin.hidden` while also having the ability to
override on a case-by-case basis throughout the UI.
Deprecates `react-animate-height` in favor of native CSS, specifically
the `interpolate-size: allow-keywords;` property which can be used to
animate to `height: auto`—the primary reason this package exists. This
is one less dependency in our `node_modules`. Tried to replicate the
current DOM structure, class names, and API of `react-animate-height`
for best compatibility.
Note that this CSS property is experimental BUT this PR includes a patch
for browsers without native support. Once full support is reached, the
patch can be safely removed.
Fixes errors when having joins with versions +drafts on `hasMany: true`
relationships.
Removes `joinQuery` overhead if we don't need it for the current
operation. Right now, in all adapters we support joins only for `find`,
`findOne`, and `queryDrafts`.

Fixes#9351. When using Postgres, doc ids were being treated as a string
as opposed to a number within the admin panel. This led to issues for
anything relying on the `docID` from context, such as the join field not
properly populating initial data when creating new documents, etc.
### What?
Generates types for `joins` property.
Example from our `joins` test, keys are type-safe:
<img width="708" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f1fbbb9d-7c39-49a2-8aa2-a4793ae4ad7e">
Output in `payload-types.ts`:
```ts
collectionsJoins: {
categories: {
relatedPosts: 'posts';
hasManyPosts: 'posts';
hasManyPostsLocalized: 'posts';
'group.relatedPosts': 'posts';
'group.camelCasePosts': 'posts';
filtered: 'posts';
singulars: 'singular';
};
};
```
Additionally, we include type information about on which collection the
join is, it will help when we have types generation for `where` and
`sort`.
### Why?
It provides a better DX as you don't need to memoize your keys.
### How?
Modifies `configToJSONSchema` to generate the json schema for
`collectionsJoins`, uses that type within `JoinQuery`
### What?
Makes it possible to filter join documents using a `where` added
directly in the config.
### Why?
It makes the join field more powerful for adding contextual meaning to
the documents being returned. For example, maybe you have a
`requiresAction` field that you set and you can have a join that
automatically filters the documents to those that need attention.
### How?
In the database adapter, we merge the requested `where` to the `where`
defined on the field.
On the frontend the results are filtered using the `filterOptions`
property in the component.

### What?
Properly specifies `$lookup.from` when the collection name is singular.
### Why?
MongoDB can pluralize the collection name and so can be different for
singular ones.
### How?
Uses the collection name from the driver directly
`adapter.collections[slug].collection.name` instead of just `slug`.
Adds `select` which is used to specify the field projection for local
and rest API calls. This is available as an optimization to reduce the
payload's of requests and make the database queries more efficient.
Includes:
- [x] generate types for the `select` property
- [x] infer the return type by `select` with 2 modes - include (`field:
true`) and exclude (`field: false`)
- [x] lots of integration tests, including deep fields / localization
etc
- [x] implement the property in db adapters
- [x] implement the property in the local api for most operations
- [x] implement the property in the rest api
- [x] docs

Fixes https://github.com/payloadcms/payload/issues/8630
- Fixes `hasMany: true` and `localized: true` on the foreign field
- Adds `limit` to the subquery instead of hardcoded `11`.
- Adds the schema path `field.on` to the subquery, without this having 2
or more relationship fields to the same collection breaks joins
- Properly checks if the field is `hasMany`
## Description
- Adds a new "join" field type to Payload and is supported by all database adapters
- The UI uses a table view for the new field
- `db-mongodb` changes relationships to be stored as ObjectIDs instead of strings (for now querying works using both types internally to the DB so no data migration should be necessary unless you're querying directly, see breaking changes for details
- Adds a reusable traverseFields utility to Payload to make it easier to work with nested fields, used internally and for plugin maintainers
```ts
export const Categories: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'categories',
fields: [
{
name: 'relatedPosts',
type: 'join',
collection: 'posts',
on: 'category',
}
]
}
```
BREAKING CHANGES:
All mongodb relationship and upload values will be stored as MongoDB ObjectIDs instead of strings going forward. If you have existing data and you are querying data directly, outside of Payload's APIs, you get different results. For example, a `contains` query will no longer works given a partial ID of a relationship since the ObjectID requires the whole identifier to work.
